Artist Residency

How was your Summer? We're glad that the temperature isn't going above 30°C anymore and we're looking forward to Autumn.

This October, we'll have the pleasure of hosting Helen C. Stark as an artist-in-residence

Helen is a French-Irish illustrator living in the UK and is passionate about old buildings, the changing of the seasons and all things nature-related. A match made in heaven! We can’t wait to show her Mompeo with its medieval alleys, the ancient olive grove, the river and the donkeys. 

During her time with us, she'll be playing with different materials and will gather local earth pigments to use in a future body of work. She'll keep a travel journal with sketches and notes of her experiences throughout. 

All of this, so we can soon tell you more about the art retreat we're organising together in September 2025! We'll definitely keep you updated. If you want to be the first to know, leave your details here:

Make sure you follow her on Instagram and on Substack, where she shares weekly visual journals.

We can’t wait to welcome Helen and see this place through her eyes and her art!
