14 Years of Textile Alchemy — A Moment of Looking Back (and Forward)

On March 5th, we opened our installation “14 Years of Textile Alchemy” in the cava of Galería Casa Paseo Doménica in Córdoba—home to our Argentina store.

What started as an exhibition became something deeper: a moment of pause, reflection, and reconnection with everything we’ve built over the past 14 years.

For the first time, we brought together 10 of our collections in one space. Pieces from different times, contexts, and chapters of our lives coexisted—allowing us to see our own work from a distance. Not as isolated collections, but as an evolving body of transformation.

It was emotional. It was intense. It was clarifying.

Because beyond the garments, what we really saw was a continuous process of reviving, reworking, and re-signifying what already exists.

A Space to Celebrate Community and Circularity

The opening night brought together collaborators, friends, and our community in Córdoba.

We were joined by:– DJ @nadiapopoffmusic– Wine reception by @fincairal– A Malum Vitriol cocktail specially created for tHERAPY by Guillo Defossez from @matrimonio.bar– Drag host @letroasch

But beyond the celebration, this moment also marked something important for us:

Our Córdoba store—located in the same space—will soon celebrate its first anniversary. It is our first and only flagship store, and a key step in expanding our work into a more complex circular system.

The Installation Continues

This project is still evolving.

In June, “14 Years of Textile Alchemy” will be reactivated at Centro Cultural 220 in Córdoba, as part of the next edition of Feria de Diseño NÚCLEO.

And we’re already imagining what comes next.

We would love to bring the installation to Berlin during the European summer—continuing to expand this format of“exhibited wearable art made from discard”as a way to reflect on waste, fashion, and value through installations and objects.

If you’re part of the Berlin community and would like to host the exhibition—or know of a space or event that could be a good fit—we’d love to hear from you.

We’re Back Online — Worldwide Shipping from Berlin

Alongside this moment of reflection, we’re also moving forward.

Our online shop is now active again, with worldwide shipping from Berlin.

And for those who subscribed recently:your discount is now live and ready to use.

During January and February, we developed new pieces while working together in Argentina. These garments are now available online, carrying that shared time and process into each piece.

Where to Find Us in Berlin

While we don’t yet have our own flagship store in Berlin, we are part of something equally meaningful.

We work within two collectives of upcyclers and independent designers who share a commitment to working with discarded materials and resource-conscious practices across disciplines:
