“Organic forms allow
permeability , deformation and reformation, suggesting edges with more fluid and natural limits. Just like water, which is a source of life and does not impose its shape or color, adapts, adjusts and accommodates, the organic suggests this possibility of overflowing and rebirth at every moment”, highlights the trio. The development of the pieces was based on
textile research into ancient manual practices carried out on the Asian continent and brings the
unique value and vivacity of craftsmanship .
