DateJune 7 - November 16, 2025
Textiles as a language for artistic expression and the construction of narratives, spaces, and relationships.
The exhibition draws inspiration from and gives voice to various traditions and cultures, reflecting the widespread interest in textiles, not only as a medium of artistic expression but also as an integral part of daily life for individuals, peoples, and cultures, representing their most intimate and profound identities.

Starting with works from the MAXXI collection, in dialogue with loans and new productions by international artists, textiles take over the Museum’s spaces, transforming them. Performative and participatory works, immersive and site-specific installations composed of garments, fibres, and fabrics establish connections with the social context.
