"Interconnessioni | The island of freedom, the residence project curated by Simonetta Pusceddu (Tersicorea) in tandem with the Municipality of Carloforte. Now in its fourth year of activity, the program will animate the island of San Pietro, with a full calendar of artistic residences, workshops and live performances.

"The word 'freedom' is the source of inspiration for investigating the territory of Carloforte and the island of San Pietro, a community consisting of only 6 thousand inhabitants, with the aim of highlighting the peculiarity of "an island of the island". which is part of the circuit of "The most beautiful villages in Italy" e it preserves the language and culture of the founders, the fishing families originally from Pegli, and from the Tunisian island of Tabarka (where they lived since the 16th century). The Tabarchins in 1738 obtained from King Carlo Emanuele III the permission to colonize the island of San Pietro, uninhabited and called 'of the sparrow hawks' since the time of the Phoenician settlement (8th century BC), which was followed by the Punic one, with a temple and necropolis . The same fishermen, 40 years later, would also have founded Calasetta on the facing island of Sant'Antioco.

The first Italian republic was founded in 1793 on the island of San Pietro. Following the arrival of the French revolutionaries on the island, the people of San Pietro drafted a constitution. Document which unfortunately has never been found, but which has left traces, in particular in the testimony of the revolutionary Filippo Buonarroti.

Using this historical event as a starting point Terpsichorea launches the project Interconnections | THE ISLAND OF FREEDOM.

What does freedom mean when you live on an island, surrounded by water? Is an island an ideal place, far from the world, to rethink the concept of republic together and on a smaller scale? Through these political and humanistic questions, the challenge is to transcend thought to a poetic form aimed at the future that can give us a new vision of the word FREEDOM and thus pay homage to a land and a people.
