The spaces of the ???????? ??????? ?? ?????????? ?’??????? are hosting the workshop led by Elena Campa, which marks the start of the activities of ??????? ??? ???, a comprehensive programme of artist residencies and exhibition itineraries spread throughout the Castello Volante and the village of Corigliano d’Otranto, with the aim of supporting contemporary artistic production by transforming the Castello Volante into a hub for the visual arts and an observatory on regional transformations.
The project, conceived by Big Sur and funded by the Puglia Region – Culture, Protection and Development of Cultural Enterprises, Tourism, Development and Tourism Enterprises, the Arts, Culture and Tourism Hub, Piiil Cultura and Puglia 365, aims to bring the younger generations closer to an active understanding of the local area.
???????̀ ?? ? ???????̀ ?? ?????? ????? ??:?? ???? ??.?? will take place on ??????????? ???????? ???????? ?’??????? ??? ????? aimed at creative individuals aged 6 and over.
The artist-in-residence programme featuring the illustrator and graphic designer will result in works that will be presented as part of ‘Visioni del sud’ and concurrently with the ‘?????? ?? ?????? ??? ?????’ (? ???’???????) ????.
The workshop is inspired by a reinterpretation of traditional printmaking through the lens of environmental sustainability – a theme particularly close to the artist’s heart – and the idea that something artistically extraordinary can be created from a single leaf.

Leaves come in a thousand different shapes; they can all be collected to create a hand-printed herbarium. In the village and castle of Corigliano d’Otranto, the plant world gently creeps into the corners of the pavements, amongst the stones of the castle, into the moat, and bursts forth in the Quercia Vallonea park.
Flowers, leaves and edible wild plants, small shrubs, and an Imperia pasta machine – used like a small press – to create a ‘plant archive’ and urban installations featuring graphic works and floral posters.
