NOMADS BY CHOICE, WE HAVE LEARNED THE IMPORTANCE OF SHARING THE BEAUTY AND FORTUNE OF OUR JOURNEY

We are Giuliana Conte and Tono Cruz, we created the participatory art collective blee.eu.

We live between Gran Canaria (Canary Islands) and San Potito Sannitico. Usually, we travel to develop different art projects but whenever we are in town, we stay in the residence’s attic with our two sons, sharing the work spaces and kitchen with the artists.

Beyond Space, the place we conceive as a forge of creativity, was our old family house. Hosting families and friends (and friends of family and their friends), it mutated from a simple domestic space to a place of creation for passers-by, artists and thinkers. 

Embracing the spirit of openness that has always characterised it, and conscious of the blessing  of having it, we have decided to continue to host artists, with and without a fixed abode. We believe that from every encounter arise ideas that go beyond the boundaries of anyone’s space.
