EFFIMERO
A CONTEMPORARY ‘LUMINARIA’ San Cataldo / 2018
In Salento, the lightings in occasion of festivals become art. Here, the tradition of ‘Luminaria’ (traditional lighting) is ancient and craftsmanship is still strongly active and leader in the field. Effimero is a research and experimentation laboratory that aimed to discover the themes and techniques of tradition in order to then propose two prototypes to be integrated into more complex installations, included in the regeneration of the San Cataldo seafront. The workshop was coordinated by Orizzontale and took place during the IAHsummer2018 festival thanks to the support and experience of Torquato Parisi, from Fratelli Parisi company.
