29 June 2024 15:00–18:00
30 June 2024 15:00–18:00
A practical and participatory dimension of urban silence through manual work and textile art.
The activity is inspired by traditional women's circles in the Mediterranean, where sewing and embroidery were intertwined with moments of silence and connection.
The Island of Silence will provide an artistic refuge in the hustle and bustle of the city, inviting everyone to participate and experience a unique atmosphere of silence, reflection and creativity.
Like an Island, the Urban Embroidery Circle will be an artistic and interactive installation. It will be conceived as an oasis of calm and creativity in the urban chaos, inviting participants to explore silence through embroidery, transforming a public space into an island of reflection, meditation and attention.
This installation will celebrate the power of urban art in transforming public spaces into places of connection and calm.
It is an approach that emphasises the idea of creating a quiet and reflective space in the urban context through the art of embroidery.
Biography
MUTA.BERLIN
I'm Teresa Gualtieri
My passion is contemporary, urban crafts. I am a mother, a migrant, a visionary. I bring tradition and urbanity together at MUTA.
The creative process is an essential part of my work. I want to give back a 'noble existence' to what is thrown away.
For almost 20 years I have been working with materials that carry history and stories.
I come from an old southern Italian family of artists and craftsmen.
I believe in the energy that fabrics tell, refined through craftsmanship upcycling.
Mūtare (Latin) means transformation: a fundamental change, MUTA is a project in mobilis and offers creative workshops based on the concept of RE-creation in the social and art educational area.
