During the residency La trama celeste, the activities revolved around the metaphor of the network as both a woven structure and a collective narrative, inviting children to explore the balance between individuality and a sense of community. Each action and gesture was understood as a thread that, when interwoven, formed a shared fabric of relationships, imagination, and collaboration.

The process unfolded over five days. In the early sessions, participants created drawings and collages, designing unique characters with their own superpowers, preferences, and qualities. They then developed a large woven structure in which they interlaced personalized threads, each scaled to their own bodies, symbolizing how individual stories form part of a wider network. Using fabric scraps, crayons, and collective stitching, the children brought their characters’ costumes and outfits to life, materializing their identities.

In the final sessions, they organized into groups to imagine collective narratives, designing small performances with a beginning, middle, and end. The closing took place in the workshop space, where a curtain was installed to present the stories, complemented by props and final costume adjustments. The experience concluded with an individual photo session, creating tangible keepsakes to share with their mothers. This residency not only fostered creativity and play but also strengthened a sense of community and the importance of recognizing oneself as part of a shared fabric.
