The programming of the Museum of Organic Environmental Art continues in the Limbara Park.
Until July 31, two exhibitions dedicated to art and the environment.
A few kilometers from the center of Tempio Pausania, in the Curadureddu Wood, the exhibition activities of Organica, the ambient art museum dedicated to contemporary art and photography, continue under the direction of Giannella Demuro.
Two solo exhibitions can be visited until July 31, in the rooms of the CEDAP Space (how to arrive): for the contemporary art section The Visions Call an Empty Night, a site-specific work by the young artist Eleonora Desole; for the section dedicated to the environment the exhibition Other tracks by the photographer Cédric Dasesson. Both exhibitions are curated by Giannella Demuro.
At her first solo show, the young artist from Sassari, Eleonora Desole, presents the unprecedented site-specific installation The Visions Call to an Empty Night. In a muffled space that cancels the physical boundaries of the exhibition room, the artist arranges fragments of nature, images, sounds and emotions: a dark place interrupted at times by blades of uncertain light, which hides a forest where water flows silently and a silent wind stirs trees, branches and leaves. These are traces of a black and white nature that renews the perpetual cycle of life and death. The exhibition space thus becomes a dreamlike and twilight space, impalpable and with uncertain boundaries, inhabited by visions that recall ancient pagan rites. Fantastic forms suspended in the void, ethereal, evanescent and unattainable, zoomorphic fetishes oscillate slowly, in a vacuum full of expectations crossed by the intermittent buzz of the many indistinct but familiar voices that inhabit the night, punctuating the inexorable flow of time. Eleonora Desole transports the viewer to an imaginary and primal space where the dark, apparently empty, is full of possibilities not yet expressed or not yet understood: an invitation to mirror oneself in primal nature to find within oneself the infinite traces of the universe”.
Eleonora Desole (1999), lives and works in Sassari. After graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Sassari, he specialized in Painting. His research stems from a dialogue built through raw materials coming from nature and the use of multimedia techniques and supports, which gives life to unusual scenarios, places of the imagination capable of creating other dimensions. He has participated in several group exhibitions, including “Fuori Tutto! ” in 2019 (Sassari, Spazio Chora) and “Habitat” in 2023 (Sassari, Palazzo Ducale). Also in 2023, in Tortolì, he participated in the second edition of “Contemporanea Talk”, a project promoted by the Foundation of Sardinia.
The exhibition Other Tracks, by the Cagliari photographer Cédric Dasesson tells — through the ordered seriality of images of various formats — the history of Sardinia and its people, the slow process of adaptation of man and nature in a place and a space where the slow flow of time is measured by a series of readable intervals such as lines of rupture, elements of change and transformation.
Starting from the traces of remote anthropizzations scattered around the island by the Sardinian people, characterized in the collective imagination as identities — dolmens, menhirs, tafoni and conche fraicate, domus de janas, nuraghi, temples, dry stone walls and pinnettes — the author tells through images, a rhythmically varied and complex time process, an obvious and objective testimony of the continuous forms of adaptation of man to the inevitable transformations of the territory. Dasesson focuses his gaze on the transition from a nomadic state of life to a settled, stable, permanent one, the one that leaves recognizable traces of anthropization, of 'domestication' on places. Within these processes of adaptation, rock is an almost constant presence, a symbol of strength, resistance and hostility but also refuge, home, space for community aggregation, as in places of worship.
Dasesson's photographic research explores the links between the elements, often flattened by a stereotyped reading, that characterize the fundamental characteristics of the people and collects their fundamental notions, offering a direct association between place and its use. The places thus become great containers of information, traditions, mythological stories imprinted in the rock and partly still to be discovered. The adaptation process reveals its being a reason for survival, a symbol of targeted life choices in total symbiosis with the territory, a symbol of stubbornness and perseverance in the will to live conditions often dictated by nature.
Cédric Dasesson (Cagliari, 1984) is a photographer who develops a predilection for studying the territory and the contemporary landscape. He uses photography as a means of research, identifying a path of analysis and reading of space, reading the changes in the territory and raising awareness of the places he observes. His works have been exhibited in international exhibitions and are present in institutional collections — MUFOCO (Italian Museum of Contemporary Photography), MiBACT, University of Cagliari, Pisa Biennale, Falía*, Biennale dello Stretto — and private collections such as the Vuitton Foundation. He developed a descriptive method of the coastal landscape by levels: underwater, from the ground and from the sky, creating together with Sardarch and the Conservatory of the Coasts of the Region of Sardinia, a photographic project on mapping the territory. His interests include the analysis of urban and rural territory. In 2019 he was one of the ten artists selected by MUFOCO and MiBACT for the development of the Atlas of Contemporary Architecture, which published “10 Journeys into Contemporary Architecture” and exhibited at the Milan Triennale and in Rome, at the National Roman Museum. He carries out projects to identify the building through the Falia artist residence*. He collaborates with the Cagliari Faculty of Architecture and with Sardarch. His main publications are Level (2017), At Night the Sea Never Sleeps (2018), Constellations (2020) and Oltreterra (2023).
All Organica events are held on the slopes of Mount Limbara, near Tempio Pausania: in the Curadureddu forest and at the CEDAP - Center for Education and Documentation on Environment and Landscape.
The CEDAP space has two exhibition rooms, one dedicated to contemporary art and the other to photography and is also an information point for hiking, environmental and cultural activities in the area.
Upon reservation, it is possible to organize guided tours of the Museum of Environmental Art for small groups.
The town can be reached from Tempio, Olbia and Sassari along the SS 392 state road, and then on foot along one of the suggestive paths that lead into the Limbara woods.
