Tessere i fili della propria unicità | Jessica Tartaglia | TEDxUniSalerno
Jessica è andata “controcorrente” riscoprendo un’arte ancestrale la tessitura a mano e trasformandola nel suo ikigai: aprire una bottega in Irpinia dove celebra l’unicità di ciascuno permettendo alla propria essenza di fiorire. In un mondo sempre più digitalizzato e standardizzato, Jessica dimostra che seguire la propria passione, affrontare quotidiani ostacoli e restare fedeli a sé stessi è la chiave per costruire una vita autentica e felice. Jessica, tessitrice irpina, ha coltivato la sua passione per la tessitura fin da piccola, grazie alla sua zia Sandra, che l'ha introdotta a quest'arte affascinante. Dopo aver trascorso anni nel laboratorio della zia, Jessica ha visto nel telaio non solo un ricordo affettuoso, ma una vera e propria vocazione professionale. Nel 2016, dopo la scomparsa della zia, ha deciso di riaprire la bottega di famiglia in Irpinia, dando vita al proprio brand e diventando una delle voci più originali della moda tradizionale, con un tocco contemporaneo.
Nel 2018, ha aperto la sua bottega, oggi l’unica in Irpinia dedicata alla tessitura a mano, che è stata riconosciuta tra le migliori imprese del Sud Italia. La sua passione per l’arte della tessitura non si limita alla creazione di capi unici, ma si estende anche alla promozione di questa tradizione attraverso laboratori itineranti, che hanno coinvolto oltre 400 persone.

- 10:47Pixels and Perspectives: Finding Meaning in the Details | Daniyal Harris | TEDxIBAWhat if the smallest, most overlooked moments in your life held the key to who you're meant to become? In this talk, Daniyal Haris explores how life’s tiniest “pixels”—the hardships, rejections, and quiet victories—can come together to form a meaningful picture. Drawing from his journey as a filmmaker and student, Daniyal argues that it's not about fitting into someone else’s frame—it's about building your own image, one pixel at a time. This talk is a reminder that no one else defines your potential, and sometimes, the clearest perspective comes from the blurriest beginnings. [Filmmaker - Storyteller]An IBA student with a filmmaker's soul, Daniyal Harris crafts stories that blur the line between memory and magic. His nostalgic style of filmmaking doesn't just tell a story - it transports you into it.
