The Season Walks is a curated series of artistic works that place attentive listening – of landscapes, spaces, temporalities, and the dynamic relations among all inhabitants – at the center of the creative experience. This unique form of artistic production weaves together acoustic ecology, musical composition, walking, and focused environmental perception.

Each sound walk is an emotional response by the artists to the fragility and instability of landscapes, guiding participants through speculative, symbiotic, and at times conflicting or intimately entangled pathways. These journeys give rise to sonic narratives, expressed through musical compositions that unfold while walking. Every route is thoughtfully designed as a stage where the encounter with place, sound, and story becomes a performative experience.

With the rhythm of steps, we invite you to explore the sonic worlds of urban edges, overlooked trails, and open perspectives in the lingering light of long evenings. Trade the stage for a path, the gallery for the shade of a tree, and the cinema for the flight of a bird crossing the sky.

Participation is free of charge. At each meeting point, we kindly ask for a contribution in the form of a cultural euro (5,00€) to help cover the costs of artistic production. Sound walks have limited capacity and registration is required for each event.
