MY FABRICS

"My Fabrics" was a 22-hour, two-week performance in which Alessandra BB tore her old, cherished clothes into ribbons and hand-wove them into a massive textile rug. The performance was accompanied by a unique soundtrack featuring sounds from the artist’s life, from childhood lullabies and her father’s voice to contemporary moments such as the cries of her youngest daughter.
When the materials were exhausted, Alessandra wove into the rug the dress she had worn during the performance, linking her past with the present.
The performance vividly reflects her quest for liberation, transformation, and deep self-reflection, creating a space for exploring memory, vulnerability, and identity.
