Volcanic Attitude Festival
Volcanic Attitude Festival is an art and science research platform in a contemporary culture vision.
It was born in autumn 2021 by Cose Cosmiche (Helga Franza and Silvia Hell), Giulia Restifo and Susanna Ravelli. It’s now in its fifth edition.
Volcanic Attitude brings together artists and researchers for a program of exploration, lectures and performances, taking part in a collective journey that follows the volcanic route between Naples and Aeolian Islands.
The areas we pass through in our journey are seismically and geologically active and constantly shifting. The landscape over and under seawater is entirely volcanic, dominated by high impact energy, vibrating elements, geo-chemical and thermal phenomenon, instability and unpredictable changes in living conditions. At the same time, Naples and Aeolian Islands are characterised by extractive tourism.
