On 23 of May, we invite you for a day of natural cosmetics crafting at Osservatorio P.U.S.H. We’ll be guided by the experienced hands of Marta Demontis, who’s been perfecting this craft for over a decade.
Essential oils, beeswax, olive oil, rosemary and other plants from our garden: the simple ingredients of an art that turns what the earth gives into what the skin asks for.
You’ll leave with something of what we make together, and the recipes to make them again whenever you want.
The workshop is held in Italian and English.

Andando Altrove - indagare il movimento
Workshop di fotografia e psicodramma
Siamo felici di aprire le porte di @osservatorio.push per accogliere e ospitare questo progetto ideato e curato da @giuliabersani , @bru_baby_blue_ e @marcepaltri
Dal 30/05 al 02/06, lo spazio diventerà il terreno d’indagine per osservare e indagare il movimento - quello del corpo e delle emozioni, quello che scegliamo e quello che ci attraversa - e per provare a dargli forma attraverso la fotografia e lo psicodramma.
Cosa si muove in noi quando fotografiamo qualcuno?
E cosa cambia quando siamo noi a essere osservati?
Lavoreremo con il corpo, con la presenza, con lo sguardo. Con il ritmo, le distanze, le relazioni. Con il dialogo tra diverse immagini.
Questo laboratorio si inserisce nel più ampio progetto europeo MPAS (Mental Problems Prevention through Artistic Skills), che promuove il benessere psicologico attraverso pratiche artistiche e relazionali.
Le attività svolte con questa metodologia sono supportate da Creative Europe.

Fairy creatures, spring is calling at Osservatorio P.U.S.H. 🌿
From April 2nd to 7th, we’re gathering to practice a different way of being together. It will be a time to immerse in the rhythm of shared life, finding space to feel, experiment, and create together.
The Residency is built on the spirit of co-creation. During these five days, Osservatorio’s collective will initiate the program with activities, ranging from creative workshops and knowledge sharing, to open roundtables and festival-making sessions. These moments will go together with your own contributions, in a space open to anyone who wants to propose and share an activity. We will conclude this journey on April 6th/7th with a Pasquetta celebration, under the sky of Valmala.

What’s behind Osservatorio P.U.S.H.?
What drives us is the desire to create a space where ideas cross-pollinate and new ways of seeing emerge.
We do it through our daily community living, and by hosting residencies and collective practices, promoting a model of sustainability that merges ecology, art and human connection.
We believe co-creation can make the living richer. And this might be one of the most radical things we can do right now.
Looking back, just a few years ago, a group of dreamers gathered, facing a fundamental question, a turning point.
The first edition of @push.festival had just ended when we asked ourselves how we could give a home to all that meaningful work we were doing.
This is when we decided to give life to Osservatorio P.U.S.H., a place where our visions could become tangible.
More than two years later, we are here. New faces, new energies, old and new dreams. Protected by the chestnut woods, we are growing, and every day we see our vision taking shape, one step at a time.
We keep writing this story, and we love where it’s going...
Thank you Walter and Andrea for being the first to bring our music studio to life, and for doing this with care and participation.
We envisioned a space where artists could explore the infinite possibilities of sound, while being part of our community process.
And we couldn’t have asked for a better way to set the first frequencies than with @mondocaneee and @walter.laureti
We heard their stories, we shared delicious food, we danced their new music. We were impressed by Walter’s expertise on live sampling, 3D audio and music production. And we loved Mondocane’s “urban jungle” rhythms, a mix of psychedelic downtempo, dub techno and tribal beats.
Hosting them reminded us why we created this home for artists. In our music studio, we keep the meaning of P.U.S.H. alive, as we aim at creating long-lasting connections and friendships.
“There Once Was a Fire” through the lens of @eleonorasizzi 🎥
In a full-immersion weekend, we have experienced art as a tool for self-exploration, wellbeing, community. 30 creatives have joined us to deepen their artistic practice and learn tools for supporting people’s mental health through arts.
We feel lucky to have hosted a group of talented people, gifting us with unique moments.
Thank you for being part of this.🫶
This training for artists was inspired by MPAS artistic methodology and facilitated by Proyecto Nagual & Hopeart.
@proyectonagual@raulrsola@hopeart_org@vasilis.panagiotidis.39@voulgari_angelikiariadni@mpas_project
We are happy to invite artists and creatives to join “There Once Was a Fire”, a training based on MPAS artistic methodology, that sees personal growth as an inner calling, a modern heroic journey unfolding throughout life.
During three days, in the quiet natural setting of Osservatorio P.U.S.H., we will explore artistic and embodied practices, weaving narrative, somatic and performative approaches, integrating storytelling, theatre, sound, dance and visual art, with the final goal of supporting the prevention of mental health problems.
The MPAS methodology (Mental Problems Prevention through Artistic Skills) was developed by Proyecto Nagual (Pedagogy of Self) and HopeArt (The Art of Connection) with the contributions of APB and Omphalos.
This Training for Artists is funded by Creative Europe, covering activities, food and accommodation.
Hosted by Osservatorio PU.S.H. (Jugaad).

P.U.S.H. NYE 2025 Residency
A Call to Imagine and Explore Together
From 27 December to 7 January, we open the doors of Osservatorio P.U.S.H. for our usual winter residency.
We invite artists, thinkers, builders, dreamers and anyone who feels the call of a co-created space.
Fusion Nest Cozy Edition location: here’s a glimpse of where we’ll be spending the 3 days of our fusion dance festival, from the 26th to the 28th of September. @osservatorio.push is based in a former 17th-century Templar outpost, now repurposed as a center for artistic experimentation, community living, and co-creation. Can’t wait to share this incredible space with you all 🧚🏻♀️ Link in bio for info and to register :)
Welcome to the location of “The Fusion Nest Cozy Edition” (26-28 September): @osservatorio.push 🌱
Our Fusion Dance Festival will take place in magical indoor and outdoor dancefloors, in camping areas surrounded by the woods and in cozy shared rooms.
We’ll be slowing down together, connecting, and co-creating a new dancing space where our community can thrive.
Fusion invites listening to the music, to the partner, to be present and respond with creativity. We feel this environment will be a fertile ground to transform movement in a language of unity.
Between one dance and the other we’ll cook together with fresh veggies from the garden and share meals and ideas with @osservatorio.push collective.
And with the help of @funkyfun.deko , we’ll ensure every detail is thoughtfully designed to create a cozy atmosphere.
Limited spots: link in bio for info/tickets.
DM us for any questions!
Can’t wait to welcome you in our nest 🪺
