We Can Be Heroes:
Cape Making and Wearables at 48HRS Neukolln

In dressing up we create and embody a character of our choosing- we can celebrate our community, show a bit of our hidden self, or take on the identity of a superhero. 

For this workshop– based on the festival's theme of play as a metaphor for social life, rules, and roles– I provided tools and a collaborative and exploratory space for participants to play with identity by making and wearing capes and creative garments.

Participants made and altered capes and werables, then took photos in their creations and wore them out into the city.
