Veils and velocities
Resumen
Los lazos de la moda y el entorno son profundos, tectónica y culturalmente.
En la meditación espiritual medieval, la mente era construida en la imagen de una ciudad
amurallada, cuyos edificios estaban “vestidos” de comprensión moral; en la Florencia
del Renacimiento, el filósofo Marsilio Ficino recomendaba que los colores planetarios se
aplicaran a la vestimenta y como adorno arquitectónico para ayudar a la contemplación
y al buen juicio. Enlazado etimológicamente, nuestros hábitos (abitudine), ropa (abito) y
edificios (abitazione) son los adornos reveladores de nuestra mente y nos preparan para
la vida cotidiana. El conjunto de artefactos y accesorios que van desde la indumentaria
hasta la vivienda nutren la imaginación con los ingredientes para la memoria personal y
compartida y la identidad. En este artículo se tendrá en cuenta varios ejemplos históricos
y contemporáneos.
