The competition is open to artists of regional, national and foreign origin, residing within the European community, of any age.
The Festival of Resilience is an event promoted by ProPositivo, an association founded by a group of young Sardinians scattered around the world, united by an assumption: “if the time we spend complaining about problems would be invested in finding solutions, now we would have concrete, innovative and sustainable alternatives”.
Behind this conviction, ProPositivo has launched the project “Transforming the crisis into opportunities”, of which the Festival of Resilience is a fundamental propeller. Born to network and spread the virtuous Italian realities, in just four years the festival has grown from a 5-day event in Macomer to a two-month program that spreads across the Marghine, Planargia, Nuorese and Central-Sardinia.
Through a methodological approach based on the meeting and the synergy between science and art, the goal is to create a dynamic and multilingual environment, capable of linking logic and creativity, school and business, institutions and civil society, public and private, environment.
Partecipants will have the opportunity to:
• Get in touch with an international artistic network which have already been able to
stimulate new collaborations and works all around Italy.
• Be sponsorized by our media partner on international and national level
• Contribute to the diffusion of new languages and narratives about local communities
• Gain professional competences through the contamination with other artistic and
scientific fields.
• Free participate to all ludic, cultural and educational activities promoted by the
