Primo Piano invites you to join the fifth edition of its Baroque Blue Art & Nature Residency<\/strong>, an intimate gathering shaped by creation, reflection, and connection. Set along the luminous coastline of\u00a0TORRE DELL\u2019ORSO<\/strong>, where the sea is not just a view but a presence, this residency unfolds as a space to listen more deeply\u2014to your practice, to others, and to the quiet stories held by the landscape. This residency offers more than a retreat\u2014it is a space for reconnection, reflection, and creative awakening.\u00a0 It is an invitation to return to yourself, to reconnect with the land, and to create from a place of depth, presence, and truth.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The <\/b>Nachiri<\/b>\u00a0Routes\u00a0<\/b>is an expression that evokes the historical and cultural paths linked to olive oil production in Salento, centered on the figure of the \u201cNachiro\u201d (or helmsman).\u00a0 The term draws on a nautical metaphor, as the oil mill was seen as an underground ship and the nachiro as its captain. During the summer, the nachiro was on a voyage aboard his ship, and in the winter, he was the master of the underground oil mills (hypogeum). This itinerary explores the sites steeped in myth, the historic crossroads between East and West, the landscape, the underground world, and the centuries-old tradition that has made Salento one of the leading producers of olive oil in the Mediterranean. Like ancient Nachiri (sailors), You will embark on your journey following the routes that will lead them to discover your true Self. A sacred and profound journey to honour your roots and discover who you have been and who you are ready to become.<\/p>\n
