Unlike traditional shows, Becomebecome > exhibits showcase work-in-progress as a way to encourage process-based > approaches to art and feedback from the community. This feedback affects > long-term changes in the participants' work patterns, and is key to the > evolution of the work, which will continue to evolve beyond the days of the > residency. > > > Symposium > > In addition to the exhibit, becomebecomers are invited to participate to a > symposium organised with, and hosted by, Stazione dell'Arte Contemporary > Art Museum, the symposium is an invitation to a day of exchange, project > presentations and labs taking place at the museum. Stazione dell'Arte works > with the idea of a distributed museum, or 'Museo Diffuso', Becomebecome > participants are given a platform to present art and research on "A Call to > Origins" that is distributed, peer-to-peer, process-based, and grow beyond > the limits of conventional art spaces to reach individuals of local and > global communities. > > One of the important inspirations for this gathering is the well-known > Sardinian artist Maria Lai, whose work is strongly connected to the theme > of 'origins' and uses diverse outdoor and indoor spaces to present engaging > work which grows beyond the boundaries of traditional art spaces.

A unique landscape > right at the Hotel entrance door is available for artists that want to > connect with nature and the surroundings at their own rhythm. Included in > the participation fee for the residency is a comfortable bed in a double > room shared with one other Becomebecome participant. Breakfast and an > additional meal during the day are also included. There are limited options > for individual rooms (extra charge) in case participants prefer to stay on > their own. Istellas has welcomed art-based projects in the past and offers > a perfect place to experience a less commercial and more authentic side of > Sardinia, while providing ample space for workshops, movement labs and the > creation of new artworks. > > > The Territory > > The territory of Sardinia offers an extraordinary concentration of trace > of the past and there are many settlements of great archaeological interest > that have turned into cultural points of reference. Nuraghi, Menirs, Domus > de janas, and the Tombs of Giants, were built between 3400 and 2700 BC, and > dated to the late Neolithic, Chalcolithic and early Bronze Age, Many other > compelling sites will also make for an invaluable source of inspiration on > the theme of origins.
