'LA SELVA' Residency Documentary - Eco-Somatic and Regenerative Arts

Video documentary of La Selva Ecosomatic Residency 2023. Between 5th and 8th October 2023 a group of 40 eco-oriented artists, scholars and educators from all over the world gathered in the Natural Reserve of the Roman Coast (Rome, Central Italy) to participate in the ‘La Selva’ residency. We were immersed in the re-discovering of our ecological connection as a playful process of care, response-ability and cultural resistance. The residency offered 4 days of guided somatic movement, sensory and perception practice, immersive and collaborative arts exchanges, reflection and discussion, as well as visits to archeological sites and excursions with specialist nature-conservation guides. 'La Selva’ was created and coordinated by Dr Raffaele Rufo (IT) and Dr Thomas Kampe (UK) in partnership with local arts, culture and education organisations and was funded through the ‘Human-Nature Connect’ Programme of Intercultural Roots (UK).
