The 2025 edition of the photography project conceived by the Due Giare Consortium to tell the story of Marmilla and promote its territory is shifting its focus. The new feature of "Nine Squares for Photography: Exploring the Territory – Inside the Homes," curated by Salvatore Ligios , will be moving from streets, countryside, and historic centers to the intimacy of homes. A total of 150 shots by nine photographers are featured. "We've been pursuing this project for years now," says Lino Zedda, president of the Consortium. "We've highlighted public spaces, and this year we'll focus on private homes."

The photographers thus narrated the region by entering the homes of Assolo, Baradili, Baressa, Curcuris, Gonnosnò, Senis, Usellus, Villa Verde, and Villa Sant'Antonio. Starting Saturday, the photographs will be exhibited on a traveling basis in the Marmilla delle Due Giare. "Not just the region," explains Ligios, "but also the homes, depending on the inspiration and style of each photographer. The aesthetic and narrative solutions were different based on the background and experience of each photographer."

In Assolo, Simone Mizzotti's photographs will be on display with "Abitare" (Living); in Baradili, Luca Nostri's "Casa Lavra, Casa Usai"; in Baressa, Manuela Vacca's "Giochi universali" (Universal Games); in Curcuris, Alexa Vinci's "Inside the House, Under the Skin"; in Gonnosnò, Alessio Cabras's "In Bidda No C'est Mai Nudda De Fai" (There's Never No One to Do); in Senis, Chiara Cordeschi's "La Restanza" (The Rest); in Usellus, Luigi Corda's "Notes for Daily Stories"; in Villa Verde, Chiara Caredda's "Time Is Unstoppable"; and in Villa Sant'Antonio, Pietro Basoccu's "From Alpha to Omega." "This traveling format," Zedda emphasizes, "and the photos will be displayed outdoors to shine a spotlight on certain corners of our urban centers."

The 150 photographs will be included in a catalog. "A guide for the new generations, a document in its own right," adds Ligios. "In this context, photography transcends the prejudicial phase for which it was created, becoming a pure photographic document." The project was made possible thanks to the contribution of the regional department of Public Education, Cultural Heritage, Information, Entertainment, and Sport.

The inauguration will take place on Saturday, November 29th, at 4:30 pm, at the "Move The Box" cultural production center in Villa Verde. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will then take place at Chiara Caredda's exhibition in front of the municipal library. Further presentations will take place in the coming weeks, until December 31st.
