We invite you to our seaside residency on Via Purgatorio in Calabria, Italy.

The house is made up of two 17th century buildings situated atop the old city of Scalea, surrounded by beautiful mountains, kind people and a quiet life.

We put a lot of love and thought into this place over the course of two years of renovations, and hope that it can be a refuge for the artist’s soul.

Ideally, your time on Purgatorio, out of time and away from everything,

will open up some space and help you create.

WE OFFER:

* A private bedroom and bathroom

(either en suite or connected to your room)

* A shared kitchen and living room

* A shared roof and sunroom

A view of the mediterranean Sea from every window, sun, good energy and Quiet.

we are happy to share breakfast each day and a communal dinner together at least once during your stay.

Lunch and dinner are not provided (YET!)

THE COST:

Our goal is to offer our space to artists for as symbolic a fee as possible, out of the belief that time in Purgatorio should be affordable for all. Because we are only just embarking on this journey, and do not yet have any outside support,

we kindly ask all residents to pay the following for their time here:

Stay € 300 / week

Car € 35-40 / day (depending on the season)

We are welcoming you into our home, and ask that you will treat it with respect and care.

Email*

I want to subscribe to your mailing list.

SUbmission

To visit us you will have to go through a submition project. We will ask you about yourself, your project and your goal for the stay.

* Submissions not open yet

but please leave your email to stay in touch and get to be the first to know, we are running!

THE WORK..

It is up to you how much time you choose to dedicate to your project during your stay,

we do ask that you share your professional and personal goals ahead of time so that we can do our small part to keep you focused.

We kindly ask for “No Man’s Land Residency” to be credited and tagged in any work created during the residency.

The little boat of my intellect now sets sail

to course through gentler waters

leaving behind her a sea so cruel.

And I will speak of that second region

where the human spirit is purged

and becomes fit to climb to Heaven.

But, since I am yours, O sacred Muses,

here let dead Poetry rise again.

– Dante, The Divine Comedy “Part II: Purgatorio”.

We are only beginning this journey, and so will be learning together with you what it means to run an art residency.

Our dream is that this place will become a home away from home for a community of international artists, and a space for exploration and creation.
