Sutrio Nativity Village: Completion of the First Artistic Residency

Sutrio Nativity Village

The first artistic residency, Sutrio: Nativity Village, has concluded as part of the project “The Forest in the Village – The Village in the Forest,” funded by the P.N.R.R. Call.

Four sculptors from all over Italy – Sisto Lombardo, Silvio Rizzato, Tiziano Di Giusto, and Fabio Natale – have created new works inspired by the concept of the Nativity scene.

These include the shepherdess, the sheep, the butcher scene, and the coachman, to be joined in the future by the horse and the conscripts’ cart.

Do you remember where you’ve seen these last two statues before? In the Teno Nativity Scene! The work, crafted by Gaudenzio Straulino over more than 30 years, not only depicts the Nativity but also portrays the customs, traditions, and typical professions of our region.

Thanks to the artists who have dedicated their creativity, artisan skills, and professionalism to our project!
