During April 2025 I was taking part of the artists residency project "Where the traces lead" in the village of "San Lawrez", a 500 habitants people in the Isalnd of Gozo, Malta. I was sharing this experince with another 5 international artists who same as me where developing their own artistic projects. A project curated by Elyse Tonna.
During my residency, I did a research around the village about the town history and background, interviewing from elderly neighbours to the children from the school. Tring to illustrate the identity of this bucolic village and its landscape from an intergenerational point of view, and engaging with every community neighbour on the process.
In the result, I illustrated a couple of elderly people and their traditional ocupations, fishing for mens, and "Biggila" for women, a textile tradictional craft from the region. In the background, the inland sea, the most famous landscape and turistic point of the region. Which at the same time was declared a bird sanctuary, and in the other side, the fungus rock, a big rock in the middle of the sea next to the village, where the legend says someone witness a two tail lizard!
Here with Sarah, Gathou and Camille, my three assistants on this project.
