Contemplative Echoes by Mathilde Garibaldi. A Journey of Emotion

Mathilde Garibaldi’s organic design from everyday moments reflects her deep intuition and connection to the natural world, creating pieces that are as thoughtful as they are beautiful. Each design she crafts is inspired by everyday moments—whether it’s the movement of the sea, the dance of shadows under moonlight, or the colors and textures found in art. Mathilde captures details from everyday life, turning them into the heart of her designs.
Her process embodies organic design from everyday moments, implying a calm and meditative effect. Mathilde begins by taking a photograph, sketching, or noticing a texture that resonates with her. She then distorts the image, experiments with colors, zooms in on details, and reworks these elements into patterns that hold a deep emotional connection. This method allows her to express her sensations through the fluid lines and rich textures that characterize her shawls. Collaborating closely with traditional Italian artisans, Mathilde crafts each shawl with meticulous attention to detail. The result is not just a garment but a narrative woven from her inner world. Each shawl reflects her emotions, journey, and inspiration, brought to life through handmade finishes and detailed craftsmanship.
Her latest collection, Contemplative Echoes, captures the beauty of quiet, often overlooked moments. This collection focuses on the subtle interplay between light and shadow, drawing from both personal and natural elements. It reflects an emotional resonance found in everyday details. Driven by introspection and organic design from everyday moments, each piece tells a story of transition, stillness, and movement. These versatile designs adapt effortlessly, following the wearer through moments of calm and activity. With this collection, Mathilde embraces the unspoken, allowing soft, contemplative moments to echo through her work, offering an elegant narrative that evolves with each individual.
