In collaboration with other two artists (Guido Bettinsoli, Paolo Paggi) we transformed the space and the time dedicated to our performance into a new State. 

We declare our independence from the Italian land where we were hosted at the moment of the project and writing a constitution, creating a flag, marking the borders and reading every day the declaration of independence during a formal ceremony with the new citizens, we funded what can be call a new state.


During the first experience the socio-political-relational-performative act was elaborated inside the ‘House of Piceno's culture and art’, Novilara, IT, 2012


After the good experience and the good feedback we got from the new citizens, we elaborate a second ‘occupation’ in collaboration with the San Giovanni Library in Pesaro. A formal institution that support us during our days and programs to elaborate daily workshops, talks, activities and screenings. the local people appreciate the project and also in this second time we had a numerous participation to our cultural events. Summer 2013. 


In both act, the state dedicated to the Relation - Nova Picena, the state of the relation (full name) was supported by the visitors in exchange of goods from the states. The project whet good for both experiences if we analyze the fact that we had enough food from outsider for the citizens and also to share with the visitors... 

Great experience!
