Imaginé par Maya Amoah, The Courage to Be Yourself nous invite à regarder le vêtement autrement : comme un langage, une mémoire et un espace de liberté.

Des textures aux images, des traditions aux expressions contemporaines, chaque détail raconte une histoire.

Une célébration de l’art, de l’identité et du courage d’être soi, au cœur de la Semaine de la mode de Montréal.

Tomorrow I will be sharing the parts of myself that I found during my last trip in Egypt. I know no other way but to share my truest self, bearing the weight of its imperfections, but also the many stories that authenticity carries. The Courage To Be Yourself invites you to my world of fashion as cultural documentation through image, movement, textile and sound.

Come one, come all!

Grateful to have a textile installation on display at @articulemtl as part of Montréal Monochrome XI: TRANSIENT.

The work is called “In what Remains: A Thousand Possibilities.

It reflects on the textile waste crisis and the tensions I experience living in Ghana, as both a place where the excesses of Western consumption become materially visible and at the same time, a place with traditions of immense creativity, resourcefulness, and reinvention.

You can still see it up on display at 6282 Rue St Hubert. by @batikboutikstudio

“I feel most myself when I am dancing or creating."

"Movement and dance is the purest form of the soul’s expression. It has been my guide for emotional release when words fail to express and the best way to connect with my body.”

“Freedom, to me, means having the ability to create freely and to express my soul’s desire through art.”

For Mysaa, freedom is not about choosing one identity. It is about moving between different windows of expression: Dance, modeling, hairstyling, painting and allowing each one to reveal another part of the self.

Her words stayed with me while working on this collection. How do we keep becoming more ourselves in a world that constantly asks us to define, simplify, and contain who we are?

Sometimes freedom looks like movement. Sometimes it is creating with our hands. Sometimes it is finding pieces of ourselves in new places.

This is the beginning of Field Notes, a journal of conversations on creativity, identity, place and becoming.

BATIK BOUTIK - EXPOSITION

@batikboutikstudio revient à la Semaine Mode de Montréal avec une exploration de la mode comme forme d’expression artistique et culturelle.

À travers les textiles, la photographie, l’image en mouvement et des pièces issues de la collection actuelle et des archives de la marque, la présentation invite à découvrir l’univers créatif en constante évolution de Batik Boutik, ainsi que les lieux, les personnes et les savoir-faire qui le façonnent.

Dans le prolongement de sa nouvelle collection, The Courage to Be Yourself, le projet explore les thèmes de l’identité, de l’expression de soi et de la liberté d’être soi à travers le vêtement, l’image et le textile.

Nourri par le récent séjour de la créatrice en Égypte et par le dialogue continu de Batik Boutik avec les traditions textiles africaines, le projet envisage le vêtement au-delà de l’objet fini, comme le point de rencontre entre artisanat, territoire, identité et échanges créatifs.

✨ Dimanche 27 septembre de 12h à 22h
✨ Vernissage : 18h
📍 Fais Moi L'Art : 900 Rue Cherrier, Montréal
🎟️ Ouvert à tous.tes

Tous les détails de l'événement sont disponibles dans la programmation de la Semaine Mode de Montréal. Voir notre bio. by @batikboutikstudio
