"The Souls of Textile", in Otranto

In the evocative Torre Matta of Otranto, until November 14, unfolds a path of emotions with the exhibition "The Souls of Textile". An experience that weaves together historical documents, evocative photographs, and precious artifacts, telling the stories of skilled hands and ancient textile traditions, those of female excellence in enterprise, the "Fondazione Le Costantine" of Casamassella. Each piece on display narrates the dedication and mastery of far-sighted Salentine women who transformed simple threads into works of art. The images capture faces and gestures that reveal an almost lost world, where fabric was not only a necessity but an expression of soul and culture. Visiting the exhibition provides a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in history and, upon leaving the Tower, be enchanted by the alleys of Otranto's historic center. Here, among millennia-old stones and breathtaking sea views, every step whispers ancient tales. Walking through these streets, with the echo of textile stories still in the heart, makes the experience unforgettable, uniting past and present in a rare embrace of beauty.
