Le sue creazioni sono realizzate con il telaio, ai ferri e all&#8217;uncinetto.<\/p>\r\n<p>Com&#8217;\u00e8 iniziato l&#8217;interesse per la tessitura, non pi\u00f9 cos\u00ec diffusa come in passato? &#8220;Per noia! Quando ero al liceo, un pomeriggio ero a casa di un&#8217;amica e non sapevamo cosa fare. Sua madre chiede se mi va di imparare a ricamare e, cos\u00ec per passare il tempo, accetto&#8221;. La prova di ricamo le piace e decide di proseguire. Nelle riviste dedicate che acquista, scopre le sezioni relative alla maglia, cos\u00ec si avvicina ai lavori ai ferri. Dopo qualche anno decide di iscriversi a un corso di tessitura di base e da l\u00ec sviluppa la passione per quest&#8217;arte antica. &#8220;Scopro che per me \u00e8 importante il processo, non il risultato finito&#8221;. Inizia tessendo con colori diversi, cambiando spesso i fili ogni poche righe: non \u00e8 una meccanica attivit\u00e0 produttiva, <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Natascia si accorge del profondo coinvolgimento della propria persona nella costruzione della trama. Ogni manufatto \u00e8 intriso del modo di essere, lo stato d&#8217;animo influisce sulla scelta dei colori, con la postura del corpo si entra nell&#8217;atto creativo. <\/strong><\/span>Scrive una tesi sul &#8220;(T)essere&#8221;, sulla riscoperta e l&#8217;affermazione della propria identit\u00e0 attraverso questa forma d&#8217;arte secolare.<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong> \u00c8 proprio la costruzione di personalit\u00e0 attraverso i fili che mi affascina mentre racconta.<\/strong><\/span> Con l&#8217;esperienza, nel tempo, ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 tessuto non \u00e8 pi\u00f9 un susseguirsi di fili ma diventa per lei un vero e proprio progetto, come un&#8217;artista che crea la sua opera, in cui inevitabilmente entra parte di s\u00e9.<\/p>\r\n<p>Mentre svolge un altro lavoro, Natascia inizia a proporre le sue creazioni in mercatini. \u00c8 dopo una mostra organizzata in un&#8217;erboristeria di Frascati che decide di dedicarsi completamente alla sua passione. Maglie, manicotti, sciarpe, cappelli, colli, ponchi, nuvole (quadrati da modulare liberamente). Un esempio di progetto? &#8220;Le mantelle-albero.<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong> Ho voluto fare una dedica personale agli alberi: 5 mantelle in colori diversi<\/strong>,<\/span> ognuna collegata a una parte differente dell&#8217;albero attraverso un&#8217;associazione psicologica. La scelta di un particolare colore, che non \u00e8 mai casuale, porta a indossare s\u00e9 stessi&#8221;, ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 richiamato dalle caratteristiche di quella determinata parte di albero. Le foglie, il cielo che si intravede attraverso le foglie, \u00a0la corteccia, la foglia gialla caduta a terra, la chioma verde.<\/p>\r\n<p>Con il tempo Natascia ha cominciato a creare non solo a forma della propria personalit\u00e0, ma anche del destinatario. Produce infatti su ordinazione, ascoltando le richieste del cliente. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Quando acquistiamo un suo capo, indossiamo un pezzo di arte unico che racchiude qualcosa di noi: qualcosa che emerge mentre Natascia intreccia per noi un filo dietro l&#8217;altro in un&#8217;armonia di colori, collegati alla nostra personalit\u00e0.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;Ricordo quando mi arriv\u00f2 la richiesta di realizzare una copertina \u00a0per un bimbo di una coppia thailandese, dandomi carta bianca&#8221;. &#8220;E come hai deciso in che modo crearla?&#8221;, le chiedo. &#8220;Andai a cercare in rete foto della Thailandia e mi colp\u00ec la pavimentazione di un parco, che fu la mia ispirazione: giallo, rosso al centro, ai lati blu, fucsia e viola&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n<p>Fin dall&#8217;inizio Natascia sceglie categoricamente materiali naturali, con un forte rifiuto per ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 chimico. Quando possibile, utilizza filati tinti a mano. Opta per fornitori medio-piccoli, che si propongono come attenti agli animali e all&#8217;ambiente. Nei suoi capi impiega sia fibre biologiche (cotone bio), sia tradizionali. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Producendo su ordinazione \u00e8 possibile richiedere un particolare tipo di materiale. <\/strong><\/span>Utilizza anche lana, tra cui quella di alpaca e yak (che sono maggiormente sostenibili). Ci confrontiamo sui materiali scelti e resto colpita positivamente dall&#8217;attenzione con cui ascolta l&#8217;impatto del cotone tradizionale o di alcuni tipi di lana (cashmere, merino) non solo sugli animali ma anche sull&#8217;ambiente. Al punto da desiderare di\u00a0approfondire di pi\u00f9 l&#8217;aspetto della scelta delle materie prime naturali.<\/p>\r\n<p>Una piccola anticipazione di un progetto futuro? Natascia \u00e8 appassionata di libri di illustrazione (non oso chiederle quanti ne ha ma mi immagino una casa piena!), da cui trae ispirazione nei suoi lavori. &#8220;Scelgo un personaggio e mi chiedo &#8216;Come lo vestirei?&#8217;, inventando la tela da mettergli indosso&#8221;.<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong> A settembre partir\u00e0 una sua mostra itinerante, iniziando da una libreria per bambini a Roma. Le creazioni che saranno esposte sono ispirate al libro &#8220;Pezzettino&#8221;<\/strong><\/span>, una bellissima storia di Leo Lionni che vi consigliamo di leggere. Influenzate dal tema della scoperta del completamento della propria identit\u00e0 nel trovare collocazione all&#8217;interno di un tutto\/collettivit\u00e0, grandi sciarpe da indossare conquisteranno armoniosamente il loro posto nella composizione di tele colorate.<\/p>\r\n<p>Pi\u00f9 sotto le foto dell&#8217;intervista e delle creazioni di Natascia.<\/p>\r\n<p>Link al sito: <a href=\"https:\/\/mafilogia.bigcartel.com\">Mafilogia<\/a><\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h5><span style=\"color: #acc0a5;\">English &#8211; Mafilogia: the magic of a thread that on the loom, from emptiness, creates personalities\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #acc0a5; font-size: 1.1em;\">by interwining<\/span><\/h5>\r\n<p>In a cosy and quiet Roman tearoom I meet Natascia to discover her brand Mafilogia, which produces garments that strongly interweave craftsmanship, art, fashion, psychology and literature.<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>&#8220;The name comes from the magic of thread, Ma(filo)gia, that on the loom creates with a magic act where there was nothing before&#8221;<\/strong><\/span>, Natascia explains to me. Her creations are made with loom, knitting and crochet.<\/p>\r\n<p>How did the interest in weaving begin, no longer as widespread as in the past? &#8220;For boredom! When I was in high school, I was at a friend&#8217;s house one afternoon and we didn&#8217;t know what to do. Her mother asked if I would like to learn to embroider and, just in order to pass the time, I accept&#8221;. She liked the embroidery test and decided to continue. In the dedicated magazines she bought, she discovered the knitting-related sections, so she approached the knitting works. After a few years she decided to enroll in a basic weaving course and from there she developed a passion for this ancient art. &#8220;I discover that the process is important to me, not the finished result&#8221;. She began by weaving with different colors, often changing the threads every few lines: it is not a mechanical productive activity, <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Natascia realises the deep involvement of her person in the construction of the plot. Each handcraft is imbued with the way of being, the mood influences the choice of colours, with the posture of the body one enters the creative act. <\/strong><\/span>She wrote a thesis on &#8220;(T) essere&#8221; (a word joke between weaving and being), on the rediscovery and affirmation of our own identity through this secular art form. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>It is precisely the construction of personalities through the threads that fascinates me while she is telling.<\/strong> <\/span>With experience, over time, what is woven is no longer a succession of threads but becomes for her a real project, like an artist who creates her work, in which inevitably part of herself enters.<\/p>\r\n<p>While doing another job, Natascia began to propose her creations in flea markets. It is after an exhibition organised in a herbalist&#8217;s shop in Frascati that she decided to devote himself completely to her passion. Sweaters, muffs, scarves, hats, necks, ponchos, clouds (squares to be freely modulated). An example of a project? &#8220;The tree-tippets. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>I wanted to make a personal dedication to trees: 5 tippets in different colours<\/strong><\/span>, each connected to a different part of the tree through a psychological association. The choice of a particular colour, which is never random, leads to wear ourselves&#8221;, what is called by the characteristics of that particular part of the tree. The leaves, the sky that can be seen through the leaves, the bark, the yellow leaf fallen to the ground, the green foliage.<\/p>\r\n<p>Over time Natascia began to create not only in the shape of her personality, but also of the recipient. In fact, she produces to order, listening to the customer&#8217;s requests. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>When we buy one of her garments, we wear a unique piece of art that contains something of us: something that emerges while Natasha weaves one thread after another for us in a harmony of colors, connected to our personality.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;I remember when I received a request to make a cover for a child of a Thai couple, giving carte blanche to me&#8221;. &#8220;And how did you decide how to create it?&#8221;, I ask her. &#8220;I went to look online for photos of Thailand and I was struck by the pavement of a park, which was my inspiration: yellow, red in the center, on the sides blue, fuchsia and violet&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n<p>From the beginning, Natascia categorically chooses natural materials, with a strong refusal for what is chemical. Whenever possible, use hand-dyed yarns. She opts for medium-small suppliers, who propose themselves as attentive to animals and the environment. In her clothes she uses both organic (organic cotton) and traditional fibres. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>By making to order, you can request a particular type of material.<\/strong> <\/span>She also uses wool, including that of alpaca and yak (which are more sustainable). We discuss the chosen materials and I am positively impressed by the attention with which I listen to the impact of traditional cotton or some types of wool (cashmere, merino) not only on animals but also on the environment. To the point of wishing to investigate more the aspect of the choice of natural raw materials.<\/p>\r\n<p>A small preview of a future project? Natascia is passionate about illustration books (I don&#8217;t dare to ask how many she has but I imagine a full house!), from which she draws inspiration in her works. &#8220;I choose a character and I wonder &#8216;How would I dress him?&#8217;, inventing the canvas to wear him&#8221;. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>In September a traveling exhibition will start, beginning from a children&#8217;s bookstore in Rome. The creations that will be exhibited are inspired by the book &#8220;Pezzettino&#8221;<\/strong> <\/span>(&#8220;Small piece&#8221;), a beautiful story by Leo Lionni that we suggest you to read. Influenced by the theme of discovering the completion of one&#8217;s identity in finding a place within a whole\/community, large scarves to wear will harmoniously take their place in the composition of coloured canvases.<\/p>\r\n<p>Link to website: <a href=\"https:\/\/mafilogia.bigcartel.com\">Mafilogia<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1

incontro Natascia per scoprire il suo brand Mafilogia, che produce capi in cui si intrecciano fortemente artigianato, arte, moda, psicologia e letteratura. &#8220;Il nome nasce dalla magia del filo, Ma(filo)gia, che sul telaio crea con un atto magico dove prima non c&#8217;era niente&#8221;, mi spiega Natascia. Le sue creazioni sono realizzate con il telaio, ai ferri e all&#8217;uncinetto. Com&#8217;\u00e8 iniziato l&#8217;interesse per la tessitura, non pi\u00f9 cos\u00ec diffusa come in passato? &#8220;Per noia! Quando ero al liceo, un pomeriggio ero a casa di un&#8217;amica e non sapevamo cosa fare. Sua madre chiede se mi va di imparare a ricamare e, cos\u00ec per passare il tempo, accetto&#8221;. La prova di ricamo le piace e decide di proseguire. Nelle riviste dedicate che acquista, scopre le sezioni relative alla maglia, cos\u00ec si avvicina ai lavori ai ferri. Dopo qualche anno decide di iscriversi a un corso di tessitura di base e da l\u00ec sviluppa la passione per quest&#8217;arte antica. &#8220;Scopro che per me \u00e8 importante il processo, non il risultato finito&#8221;. Inizia tessendo con colori diversi, cambiando spesso i fili ogni poche righe: non \u00e8 una meccanica attivit\u00e0 produttiva, Natascia si accorge del profondo coinvolgimento della propria persona nella costruzione della trama. Ogni manufatto \u00e8 intriso del modo di essere, lo stato d&#8217;animo influisce sulla scelta dei colori, con la postura del corpo si entra nell&#8217;atto creativo. Scrive una tesi sul &#8220;(T)essere&#8221;, sulla riscoperta e l&#8217;affermazione della propria identit\u00e0 attraverso questa forma d&#8217;arte secolare. \u00c8 proprio la costruzione di personalit\u00e0 attraverso i fili che mi affascina mentre racconta. Con l&#8217;esperienza, nel tempo, ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 tessuto non \u00e8 pi\u00f9 un susseguirsi di fili ma diventa per lei un vero e proprio progetto, come un&#8217;artista che crea la sua opera, in cui inevitabilmente entra parte di s\u00e9. Mentre svolge un altro lavoro, Natascia inizia a proporre le sue creazioni in mercatini. \u00c8 dopo una mostra organizzata in un&#8217;erboristeria di Frascati che decide di dedicarsi completamente alla sua passione. Maglie, manicotti, sciarpe, cappelli, colli, ponchi, nuvole (quadrati da modulare liberamente). Un esempio di progetto? &#8220;Le mantelle-albero. Ho voluto fare una dedica personale agli alberi: 5 mantelle in colori diversi, ognuna collegata a una parte differente dell&#8217;albero attraverso un&#8217;associazione psicologica. La scelta di un particolare colore, che non \u00e8 mai casuale, porta a indossare s\u00e9 stessi&#8221;, ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 richiamato dalle caratteristiche di quella determinata parte di albero. Le foglie, il cielo che si intravede attraverso le foglie, \u00a0la corteccia, la foglia gialla caduta a terra, la chioma verde. Con il tempo Natascia ha cominciato a creare non solo a forma della propria personalit\u00e0, ma anche del destinatario. Produce infatti su ordinazione, ascoltando le richieste del cliente. Quando acquistiamo un suo capo, indossiamo un pezzo di arte unico che racchiude qualcosa di noi: qualcosa che emerge mentre Natascia intreccia per noi un filo dietro l&#8217;altro in un&#8217;armonia di colori, collegati alla nostra personalit\u00e0.\u00a0 &#8220;Ricordo quando mi arriv\u00f2 la richiesta di realizzare una copertina \u00a0per un bimbo di una coppia thailandese, dandomi carta bianca&#8221;. &#8220;E come hai deciso in che modo crearla?&#8221;, le chiedo. &#8220;Andai a cercare in rete foto della Thailandia e mi colp\u00ec la pavimentazione di un parco, che fu la mia ispirazione: giallo, rosso al centro, ai lati blu, fucsia e viola&#8221;. Fin dall&#8217;inizio Natascia sceglie categoricamente materiali naturali, con un forte rifiuto per ci\u00f2 che \u00e8 chimico. Quando possibile, utilizza filati tinti a mano. Opta per fornitori medio-piccoli, che si propongono come attenti agli animali e all&#8217;ambiente. Nei suoi capi impiega sia fibre biologiche (cotone bio), sia tradizionali. Producendo su ordinazione \u00e8 possibile richiedere un particolare tipo di materiale. Utilizza anche lana, tra cui quella di alpaca e yak (che sono maggiormente sostenibili). Ci confrontiamo sui materiali scelti e resto colpita positivamente dall&#8217;attenzione con cui ascolta l&#8217;impatto del cotone tradizionale o di alcuni tipi di lana (cashmere, merino) non solo sugli animali ma anche sull&#8217;ambiente. Al punto da desiderare di\u00a0approfondire di pi\u00f9 l&#8217;aspetto della scelta delle materie prime naturali. Una piccola anticipazione di un progetto futuro? Natascia \u00e8 appassionata di libri di illustrazione (non oso chiederle quanti ne ha ma mi immagino una casa piena!), da cui trae ispirazione nei suoi lavori. &#8220;Scelgo un personaggio e mi chiedo &#8216;Come lo vestirei?&#8217;, inventando la tela da mettergli indosso&#8221;. A settembre partir\u00e0 una sua mostra itinerante, iniziando da una libreria per bambini a Roma. Le creazioni che saranno esposte sono ispirate al libro &#8220;Pezzettino&#8221;, una bellissima storia di Leo Lionni che vi consigliamo di leggere. Influenzate dal tema della scoperta del completamento della propria identit\u00e0 nel trovare collocazione all&#8217;interno di un tutto\/collettivit\u00e0, grandi sciarpe da indossare conquisteranno armoniosamente il loro posto nella composizione di tele colorate. Pi\u00f9 sotto le foto dell&#8217;intervista e delle creazioni di Natascia. Link al sito: Mafilogia English &#8211; Mafilogia: the magic of a thread that on the loom, from emptiness, creates personalities\u00a0by interwining In a cosy and quiet Roman tearoom I meet Natascia to discover her brand Mafilogia, which produces garments that strongly interweave craftsmanship, art, fashion, psychology and literature. &#8220;The name comes from the magic of thread, Ma(filo)gia, that on the loom creates with a magic act where there was nothing before&#8221;, Natascia explains to me. Her creations are made with loom, knitting and crochet. How did the interest in weaving begin, no longer as widespread as in the past? &#8220;For boredom! When I was in high school, I was at a friend&#8217;s house one afternoon and we didn&#8217;t know what to do. Her mother asked if I would like to learn to embroider and, just in order to pass the time, I accept&#8221;. She liked the embroidery test and decided to continue. In the dedicated magazines she bought, she discovered the knitting-related sections, so she approached the knitting works. After a few years she decided to enroll in a basic weaving course and from there she developed a passion for this ancient art. &#8220;I discover that the process is important to me, not the finished result&#8221;. She began by weaving with different colors, often changing the threads every few lines: it is not a mechanical productive activity, Natascia realises the deep involvement of her person in the construction of the plot. Each handcraft is imbued with the way of being, the mood influences the choice of colours, with the posture of the body one enters the creative act. She wrote a thesis on &#8220;(T) essere&#8221; (a word joke between weaving and being), on the rediscovery and affirmation of our own identity through this secular art form. It is precisely the construction of personalities through the threads that fascinates me while she is telling. With experience, over time, what is woven is no longer a succession of threads but becomes for her a real project, like an artist who creates her work, in which inevitably part of herself enters. While doing another job, Natascia began to propose her creations in flea markets. It is after an exhibition organised in a herbalist&#8217;s shop in Frascati that she decided to devote himself completely to her passion. Sweaters, muffs, scarves, hats, necks, ponchos, clouds (squares to be freely modulated). An example of a project? &#8220;The tree-tippets. I wanted to make a personal dedication to trees: 5 tippets in different colours, each connected to a different part of the tree through a psychological association. The choice of a particular colour, which is never random, leads to wear ourselves&#8221;, what is called by the characteristics of that particular part of the tree. The leaves, the sky that can be seen through the leaves, the bark, the yellow leaf fallen to the ground, the green foliage. Over time Natascia began to create not only in the shape of her personality, but also of the recipient. In fact, she produces to order, listening to the customer&#8217;s requests. When we buy one of her garments, we wear a unique piece of art that contains something of us: something that emerges while Natasha weaves one thread after another for us in a harmony of colors, connected to our personality. &#8220;I remember when I received a request to make a cover for a child of a Thai couple, giving carte blanche to me&#8221;. &#8220;And how did you decide how to create it?&#8221;, I ask her. &#8220;I went to look online for photos of Thailand and I was struck by the pavement of a park, which was my inspiration: yellow, red in the center, on the sides blue, fuchsia and violet&#8221;. From the beginning, Natascia categorically chooses natural materials, with a strong refusal for what is chemical. Whenever possible, use hand-dyed yarns. She opts for medium-small suppliers, who propose themselves as attentive to animals and the environment. In her clothes she uses both organic (organic cotton) and traditional fibres. By making to order, you can request a particular type of material. She also uses wool, including that of alpaca and yak (which are more sustainable). We discuss the chosen materials and I am positively impressed by the attention with which I listen to the impact of traditional cotton or some types of wool (cashmere, merino) not only on animals but also on the environment. To the point of wishing to investigate more the aspect of the choice of natural raw materials. A small preview of a future project? Natascia is passionate about illustration books (I don&#8217;t dare to ask how many she has but I imagine a full house!), from which she draws inspiration in her works. &#8220;I choose a character and I wonder &#8216;How would I dress him?&#8217;, inventing the canvas to wear him&#8221;. In September a traveling exhibition will start, beginning from a children&#8217;s bookstore in Rome. The creations that will be exhibited are inspired by the book &#8220;Pezzettino&#8221; (&#8220;Small piece&#8221;), a beautiful story by Leo Lionni that we suggest you to read. Influenced by the theme of discovering the completion of one&#8217;s identity in finding a place within a whole\/community, large scarves to wear will harmoniously take their place in the composition of coloured canvases.
