SONO ACQUA is an art workshop for children and adults over 50, aimed at rediscovering the memory of the sea. Led by artist Alessandra Carosi, the workshop is conceived as a moment of exchange and transmission. Through play and creativity, the sea becomes a space for intergenerational dialogue, an opportunity to reflect together on the past and future of our territories.
Once, Romagnolo Beach was a place for swimming, fishing, and play. Today, it bears the marks of pollution and urban transformation. Through the memories of their accompanying adults, children will be able to discover a different and more intimate relationship with the sea, reflecting on how this bond has changed over time and imagining its possible futures together.
What do we lose, as a community, when a place of life becomes a marginalized and polluted space? What future do we wish for Romagnolo and for the Mediterranean? And how can art and intergenerational memory help us imagine another possible ecology?
Together with the artist, participants will explore a special photographic technique that uses seawater as an image developer. With the help of salt water, natural elements collected on the beach, and even waste materials, each pair of participants will create photographs born from the direct contact between the sea and light-sensitive paper.
The works produced, fragments of landscape and memory, will be presented in an exhibition during the Between Land and Sea festival.
SONO ACQUA, an intergenerational workshop at Romagnolo, is not only an artistic experience but also a moment of collective and political sharing.
