The Essence
In today’s multiethnic world, in the social and cultural mix where values, languages and lifestyles coexist, where nature and technology are also seeking a balance with a common denominator and must exchange views, broadening one’s mental and creative boundaries is fundamental..”Hybridization” is the general concept that inspired the young designers of the international Feel the Yarn competition, now in its ninth edition at Pitti Filati this year. A concept that marries well with the message expressed by MilanoUnica. Inputs are created from different forms of hybridization: a mix of societies and cultures, of eras and styles, cultural nomadism, freedom of expression, and an invitation to broaden boundaries on which the competitors worked. From another angle, the analysis of Pitti Filati begins with an emphasis on how the Internet has definitely changed the world and our perception of reality, eliminating the laws of space and time.
