1. Of, relating to, or derived from living organisms: organic matter.
2. Simple, healthful, and close to nature: an organic lifestyle.
3. Resembling a living organism in organization or development; interconnected: society as an organic whole.
4. Constituting an integral part of a whole; fundamental.
The Organic art residency practices and promotes sustainability by launch art projects within the community to bring awareness about the environment, global warming and sustainable living.
The artist are immersing in the natural world and they seek to inspire creativity by connecting their practices to their organic roots. This particular residency program encourages the artists to return to those days when art was made with all-natural materials, such as charcoal and birch bark. Materials like organic pigments, leaves, branches, berries, stones etc will also contribute to experience a magical journey into nature developing the concepts of awareness and perception that are foundational to the creative process.
This residency at Art Aia is open to any artist who wants to discover the joy of creating with nature.
Art Aia is also an ecology center dedicated to connecting people with nature, art and community. The Sustainable Farm project is a workshop created to promote sustainable and organic farming methods such as sustainable farm planning, synergistic agriculture , beneficial use of water resources of a piece of land, vine & bambù growing , garden design and more.
Healing nature seeks to address the dis-ease caused by a disconnect between humans and nature. Because holism is supposedly all encompassing, it is important to explore the interconnectedness of humans with their amazing ecosystem and natural habitat. Ecotherapy usually involves sensory awareness practices that invite us to expand the mind-body-spirit connection. By inviting nature into the therapeutic alliance, we are holding the space for the person to connect with their natural environment and provide them with deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world.
Il seminario intensivo di recitazione , tenuto da Giovanni Morassutti , si concentrerà sui principi cardine della scuola realista americana . Il seminario è a numero chiuso, massimo 12 allievi, ed è aperto ad attori professionisti , allievi attori , allievi principianti . Le lezioni saranno suddivise in lezioni di tecnica e studio delle scene . Durante le lezioni di tecnica verrà sviluppato il rilassamento sulla sedia , la concentrazione , la memoria sensoriale , il training dell’immaginazione , l’improvvisazione strutturata e il lavoro sull’animale . Queste tecniche consentono all’attore di entrare in contatto con il proprio strumento creativo e con i propri impulsi più spontanei al fine di sviluppare una maggior consapevolezza rispetto alla capacità di usare se stesso all’interno del lavoro scenico.Durante il seminario si affronterà inoltre lo studio del personaggio, direttamente esplorando una scena tratta da un’opera teatrale consigliata dall’insegnante o su richiesta dell’allievo . Lo studio della scena e del personaggio si svilupperà attraverso un dialogo interattivo tra attore e insegnante prima , durante e dopo la scena . Durante lo studio delle scene si esplorerà in maniera organica:” l’impulso”,” la percezione” , “l’espressione” , “l’immaginazione” , “la logica di comportamento” , “l’emozione” ,” la sensazione” , “la relazione con l’altro” ,” la comprensione della scena “e” l’analisi attiva del testo” . L’obbiettivo è di portare tutti questi principi nel corpo e di riuscire a canalizzarli in un comportamento . Le scene saranno “scene a due” e ciascun singolo attore avrà la possibilità di lavorare tutti i giorni, potendo cosi sviluppare uno studio approfondito del personaggio . Il seminario dura 5 giorni ed è distribuito su 6 ore giornaliere .
L’orario è dalle 17.00 alle 23.30 con una pausa di mezz’ora durante la quale potrete scegliere se mangiare all’aperto gustandovi il tramonto nel silenzio oppure seduti ad una grande tavolata all’interno della Foresteria Art Aia.
Durante il periodo del Seminario è possibile, inoltre, alloggiare in camera doppia presso la Foresteria Art Aia conciliando il lavoro creativo con la pace ispirante della natura .
