Last summer, I was a habitant of Ca de Monti for the second year. This time, I collaborated on the scenography for QUA, their end of summer festival.
.I found a nest again in the atelier designing tent covers and banners inspired by the traces of what makes this place so special. I love how each summer collaboration explores investing the space of the garden in a soft way, close to the ground last year, out of the sun this time.
All printing inks were made with local ingredients : an iron pigment from the area, elderberries and henna donated by Sami, my partner in crime. I found a roll of fabric in the atelier, oak tannins in the forest, tubs of yogurt in the fridge and the same old screens I was printing with last year!
Once again, we could count on wonderful help from the other residents to draw the stencils and help us print all night long - big thanks to Flora and Tommy, Laura, Niccolo, Marghe, Michele… and for the whole team at habitat.
