MARCO 

RANIERI

- a moment of realisation, change and/or disruption

Change:
To know Ayesha’s project has been so important cause it has made me include a new perspective about food and sharing food in my project.

Disruption:
The residency program has been entirely online and the synergies between participants have been weaker. Sharing space with other artists gives to the projects a greater dimension and makes them stronger.

- a moment of connection
To talk with other artists and to discover a lot of projects about caring plants, to share knowledge and similar experiences and to find companions who are thinking about the same things and working on similar fields has been very useful to my project cause I’ve felt listened. This is the first step to create exchange places and networks that are so important to my work.

- any tools / methods / resources to share
To me is especially useful to share common places with others. To share food and a drink, relax time with other persons in a comfortable space to potentiate deep connections. I think that informal talks or meetings and sharing a pleasant time with others facilitates the exchange and enhances the experience.

- a question you are left with
How to stablish a real and deep connection with others, in the distance, trough a screen shared with a lot of people. It has been too difficult to me.

- something you will carry forward
The most important I will carry with me is the energy I’ve felt in the mentors and the participants. Is so inspiring to find projects full of energy and passion and expectations. The attitude has been exciting and that helps me to increase my knowledge and my skills. I think that this residence where artists can grow.
