The world of dance especially ballroom dance is something strange for many people. They would laugh at it not trying to understand what it feels like. Many of them even never tried ballroom dance on their own because it seems outdated and antiquated. "The Feeling Of Dance" offers the audience access to the dancing culture in a different way. People are not forced to try dancing out but they can listen to different music while watching fabrics which represent different types of dance. This creates moods which go near the actual feeling of dancing. The aim is to give the viewers a new kind of understanding of ballroom dancing so they don't see it as old-fashioned as they used to. | |||

Fabric comes in all kind of forms, colours and textures. It is more durable than paper. It moves, flows and it offers a variety of possibilities on what to do with it. In the fashion industry textile is used to create aesthetics. The uniqueness of each fabric can be inspiration for an artist or designer to make something special out of it. Textile can have so many different characteristics - it can be light as a feather, almost completely transparent (Chiffon) or thick, heavy and strong like denim or leather. It can also be used for a beamer and project different images on it. | Fabric comes in all kind of forms, colours and textures. It is more durable than paper.

=='''Thoughts about sustainable aesthetics:'''== | |||
When thinking of aesthetics, the first thing that comes to mind is the appearance/look of something. This is a visual experience. Now when aesthetics are conneted to sustainability, it is like a change in the way of creating a design for a certain product. Sustainability means working together with the environment - not against it. The items it is offering are taken and used to create something new out of it. | |||
Not everything needs to be "brand-new" - It can be designed to look like it is way more new. | |||
In fashion there are multiple ways to create/purchase clothing in a sustainable way. It can be a way of showing personality in a visual appearance. There is a certain culture in the fashion industry - "thrifting". It is about reusing "old" or thrown-away clothes to make some new ones or even other things out of them. | |||
