NEST: an immersive installation by ITS Academy Rossellini

Fondazione ITS Academy Roberto Rossellini presents NEST, an immersive installation created for the Festival del Verde e del Paesaggio 2025 at Rome’s Auditorium Parco della Musica.

The work transforms the space into a nest, a symbol of welcome and a primal connection with nature. This sensory experience invites reflection on the relationship between people and the environment.

Outside, intertwined branches evoke protection and intimacy, while inside a dreamlike journey unfolds. Projections create a continuous visual cycle of interwoven roots, solid trunks and lush green canopies, enveloping visitors in a hypnotic flow of images. The sound of wind through the leaves and birdsong heightens the sensory experience.

In groups of five or six, visitors can immerse themselves in the experience for up to five minutes.

Inspired by Wim Wenders’ Perfect Days, NEST explores the relationship between people and nature, offering a place to lose yourself and find yourself again.
