Marea Art Project
The Project
Over the centuries, artists, writers, and intellectuals have gravitated toward or lived along the Amalfi Coast, drawn by its overwhelming beauty and inspired by encounters with local artisans skilled in textiles, papermaking, and ceramics.
Marea Art Project seeks to reactivate this tradition by positioning the Amalfi Coast as a decentralized hub for contemporary artistic research, experimentation, and production, while fostering connections with the international independent feminist and queer art scenes.
By hosting artists in historic homes made available by the communities of Praiano and Positano, the residency program takes place during the winter months, a time when it is possible to forge deep connections with the territory and its inhabitants.
Who is it for?
Marea Art Project is aimed at professionals in the visual arts, dance, music, cinema, literature, theater, and other disciplines such as anthropology, philosophy, architecture, design, fashion, science.
The artists in residence will be able to live and deepen their research in old houses in the villages of Praiano or Positano, letting themselves be inspired by the ever-changing atmospheres of the sea and the coast and of the De Li Galli Island, Punta Campanella, and the Faraglioni of Capri.
The project wants to allow living and visiting the coast in an alternative way to the tourist one, in periods of less congestion, letting everyone to know and frequent an otherwise prohibitive territory.
Participation in the residency is by invitation, but open to considering applications that have financial coverage.
