This course aims to develop the creative and critical abilities of participants through a mode practice grounded in poetry, observation, and play. It seeks to encourage their capacity for choice and strengthen both collective and personal confidence.
Students will develop qualities of attention, contemplation, and creative unfolding through two forms: textile art (clothing, weaving, sculpture) and graphy (poems, drawings, and short prose).
The creation of universes and desires lies at the heart of contemporary fashion practices. Drawing from Fashion Theory, the course will place the sense of play, critical gaze, and experimentation at the core of its approach.
The course will lead to a deep reflection on the construction of reality, whether aesthetic or purely conceptual.
Each participant will be able to explore various forms of implementing guided exercises – from simple improvised fragments to more ambitious projects.
Based on the practice of discipline and the consideration of constraints (handwork transmission, moments of silence, concentration, and continuous dialogue between individual and collective), the course aims to provide tools for a poetic gaze on the world and the possible futures of our society.
Ultimately, the course proposes to respond, through action and discussion, to this central question in the life of a contemporary learner: how do we wish to live?
