“Echoes of Earth” summer show film at the Southbank Centre presented at London Fashion Week City Wide Celebration British Fashion Council This immersive fashion presentation reimagines the role of fashion in an era of environmental challenges. Responding to Tavares Strachan’s work You Belong Here, Anciela invites the audience to collectively reflect on this statement, and envision a sustainable and just future. A poetic act on why we belong here and we occupy the space in our societies while playing with different perspectives and movement. https://lnkd.in/eF8hqFWX

Some highlights of our summer show “Echoes of Earth” at the Southbank Centre Inspired by Tavares Strachan piece “You belong here” I used letters as a starting point for this collection. I loved the graphic aspect of Tavares work and playing with different perspectives of how these letters can be worn and move with the body while carrying a hidden word. It was a lovely experiment to have interactive moments with the audience and see everyone keen and involved. This show touched on many topics we have worked on in the past 5 years, addressing the role of Fashion within the climate crisis while creating safe and educational spaces to talk and interact with future ideas around sustainability, migration, dance, music poetry and our shared responsibility towards the environment.

I’m beyond excited to invite you to “Echoes of Earth,” our summer show at Southbank Centre, join us to celebrate 5 years of Anciela with this immersive fashion presentation. Inspired by Tavares Strachan's "You Belong Here” from his amazing exhibition at the Hayward gallery “There is Light Somewhere” that really made me think about space and visibility and how we use our art to connect and tell stories during a time of environmental crisis. I left hopeful and inspired and I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on with my super talented Anciela family. We’ll be exploring all these topics through dance, music, poetry and of course experimental fashion. Date: Saturday 3rd of August 2024 Location: Riverside Terrace, Southbank Centre, Belvedere Rd, London SE1 8XX  Time: 2 - 4 pm Open to all
