falía* (falia)
Lozio, Italy
falía* Artists in Residence program is located in the Lozio Valley, part of the picturesque Camonica Valley in Northern Italy. This residency aims to fuse contemporary art with local traditions and cultural heritage, providing artists the opportunity to create site-specific artworks that resonate with the region's identity. Established by the cultural organization, Associazione falía*, the residency invites individual artists and collectives from around the globe to immerse themselves in the local community and landscape.
The program offers free accommodation and workspace, fostering a creative environment where artists can produce work inspired by and integrated with the locality's natural and historical contexts. The residency encourages interaction with local cultural institutions like the Casa-Museo della Gente di Lozio, an ethnographic museum, enhancing the artists' engagement with the area's mountain and peasant culture. By requiring the final artworks to be donated to the Municipality of Lozio, falía* ensures that these contributions enrich the community and complement its cultural legacy.
