a wonderful opportunity dedicated to Sardinian descendants
The relationship between Sardinia and Emigration is an ancestral infinity that is part of the very nature of the island and its inhabitants. The island is docking or departure, where the gaze is always turned towards a horizon open to the imagination of the unknown, to life beyond the sea. The island is the profile imagined on the horizon when you are far away. This double image guides my artistic vision of the second edition of MusaMadre. The desire to go or come back.
Ischèliu is, in Sardinian, the bird-call, which is the object used to call birds by recreating their own language. This meaningful image refers to our nature as animal humans through senses and feelings.
Ischèliu is also the opportunity to create this year inside MusaMadre a residency project that accompanies those who want to reconnect with their roots and helps them to recreate their points of belonging through direct experience with land, communities, old and new rituals, tradition, and contemporary art expressions.
Ischèliu is the reference to the construction of the memory of one's personal ancestral journey which becomes an element of collective story, travel diary, artistic expression, thoughts to share, to keep, feelings, experience, and nostalgia.
