The autumn event for nature lovers.
A suspended parenthesis in which nature becomes the inspiration for one's lifestyle through a refined fusion of nursery, art, design and landscape culture. A story that comes from the garden and moves towards advanced gardening. An immersive experience that celebrates beauty, in all its forms.
The fifteenth edition of Orticolario is an invitation to look at what surrounds us with new eyes, as if it were the first time. A form of exercise for wonder.
Eden
The beginning intact.
A fantastic place, uncultivated and wild. Wild.
A primordial garden, which transcends the human idea of perfection.
Not the perfect garden of the collective imagination, but a primordial and wild place, which transcends the common idea of perfection in the name of a power proper to nature that distorts and upsets, which cannot be controlled, pigeonholed, dominated.
A return to the uncontaminated as a collective aspiration towards a lost harmony.
An invitation to overcome anthropocentrism, abandoning the idea of a controlled garden.
Orticolario's Eden is a model of wild garden: a low-maintenance wild garden rich in biodiversity, in which the triadic coexistence between man, plants and animals represents the key to interpreting its very essence. The human fabric is intertwined with that of plants and animals, creating a complex and, therefore, complete ecosystem.
A scenario that is a symbol of peace and coexistence, but also of vulnerability: it has known the offense of man, and protecting him becomes a necessary task for those who live there.
