The temporary exhibition *Vitæ. The Feeling of Nature*, which forms part of the tour of the Ducal Castle of Agliè and its gardens, is complemented by a programme of accompanying activities designed to deepen and fully enhance the visitor experience. The exhibition features the works of Jessica R. Carroll, an artist who has always viewed nature as a unique lens through which to explore social dynamics and the relationships between individuals of the same species.
