Maurizio Pittau interviews Ligia Pagano, founder of La Mansarda, who talks about her personal experience of discovering her Colombian and Italian roots through research into her biological origins. After living in different countries, such as Australia and the United Kingdom, Ligia moved to Dublin. She created La Mansarda, a project that combines art and social commitment, offering a welcoming space for emerging artists. The initiative develops in Dublin, promoting culture and solidarity, becoming a point of reference for the local artistic community.
The conversation highlights Ligia's desire to expand the Mansarda project to several European cities, promoting a sense of European community and enhancing cultural diversity. We also discuss the creation of a network of artists and supporters to encourage the growth and expansion of this multidisciplinary initiative that promotes art and solidarity.
