Nature, forever nature

Selection course for Le Immagini della Fantasia 43

We dwell in nature. To exist in the world means to be surrounded by nature, to be part of it… even if we often forget.
Nature connects us to something original, to a part of ourselves we can never truly separate from. She is our beginning—and our return.
She is always there. In the landscapes we pass through, in the gardens we tend, in the memory of a certain light, a sky, the scent of flowers, the softness of an animal’s fur, the taste of fruit, the cold of snow on a cheek… and in another’s gaze.
The way we see nature emerges in all of our creations.
Even in illustration.
Let us try to rest our gaze—again and again—on her and all her manifestations. Let us try to live her, dream her, contemplate her, marvel at her.
And let us leave a trace of what she awakens in us—in a drawing, a painting, an illustration.

Participation in the Nature, forever nature course is by selection.
Passing the selection grants direct participation in the 43rd International Illustration Exhibition “Le Immagini della Fantasia.”
During the workshop, participants will work on the proposed themes, guided by their instructor, to produce a finished piece aligned with the exhibition’s theme. Technique is open.
The workshop begins with a group meeting to introduce the theme and encourage discussion.

To apply for selection, candidates must submit 5 low-resolution illustrations to corsi@fondazionezavrel.it May 21, 2025.

Selection results will be communicated by May 26, 2025.

The exhibition will take place at the Casa della Fantasia from November 8, 2025 to February 15, 2026, and may continue in other cities as part of the 43rd edition’s program.

Art materials are the responsibility of the participant.
Each participant is asked to bring the materials they wish to use during the course, as the technique is open.
It is recommended to bring a container for water, a palette (or plates) for mixing colors, and a cloth for drying.
