  • The Hidden Garden: Nature, Culture and Art in Siena

    The Hidden Garden (il Giardino Nascosto) is a peri-urban regeneration project led by the Siena Art Institute that aims to revitalize a previously abandoned wooded area, adjacent to the medieval walls of the italian city of Siena, in Tuscany, and located in a 'border' zone between the inner order of urban space and the spontaneity of nature outside. Unlike more traditional gardens, this is a living ecosystem that evolves over time, adapting to human presence and welcoming human experiences, in a relationship of continuous exchange.
