Exhibition summary

Hestia is a collaborative exhibition that explores the experiences of migrants and refugees through fashion design. Using pre and post-consumer textile waste, the collection is crafted in dialogue with individuals supported by the Spanish Commission for Refugees (CEAR) in Málaga.

Curatorial context

The Hestia exhibition, named after the Greek goddess of the hearth, serves as a poignant exploration of displacement and home. Created by designer Andrea Rubio Martin, the project features a series of garments constructed from recycled textile waste, representing the resilience and histories of individuals who have fled conflict or human rights abuses. The works are the result of personal encounters and direct collaboration with migrants supported by the Spanish Commission for Refugees (CEAR) in Málaga, whose experiences and ideas are woven into the physical form of the objects. This initiative acts as a platform for social reflection, bridging the gap between ethical fashion and human rights advocacy. Andrea Rubio, drawing from her background in law and her commitment to sustainable and circular design, facilitates an inclusive process where the stories of the participants are centered. By integrating the perspectives of migrants as both contributors and models, the exhibition aims to bring visibility to those living in vulnerable situations while promoting a more ethical and socially responsible fashion industry.
