TEXTILE IMPROVISATION
Why reach for the new when the old possesses such vital energy?
Created at Gaia Terra during the Italy Contact Festival, Textile Improvisation transforms a "lost and found" archive of decades-old abandoned garments into dynamic partners in movement. Blending somatic Contact Improvisation, upcycling, and environmental activism, this series proves that discarded materials still hold the raw strength needed for intense body research—giving forgotten textiles a dramatic rebirth across dorms, workshops, and surrounding forests.
