Textimoov! exhibition

Completely new and intended for a wide audience, the exhibition showcased the latest discoveries and trends in textiles globally, with a focus on France, the Hauts-de-France region, the Métropole Européenne de Lille, and our belgian neighbors. It crossed the most recent scientific technological innovations with artistic creation in all its forms.

Futurotextiles is a series of exhibitions designed by lille3000 that have been travelling the world since 2006 in a variety of forms to showcase the wealth of new textiles. In 2015, Textifood, a Futurotextiles module focusing on micro-organisms from the agri-food sector that develop textile materials, was presented at the Universal Exhibition in Milan. Then, lille3000 designed Textidream / Futurotextiles 5, which was presented in autumn 2021 on the esplanade of the French Pavilion at the Dubai 2020 World Expo.

In an interstellar setting, some high-performance textiles used for spacewalks are highlighted here.
On loan from La Cité de l’Espace (FR), the SOKOL-KV2 spacesuit, a replica of the one carried by Thomas Pesquet to the International Space Station for the Proxima mission in 2017, protects the astronaut during the active phases of Soyuz flight (takeoff, rendezvous, return to Earth). It ensures survival in case of depressurization. 
This «scratched» model of the European ARIANE 5 launcher, lent by CNES (FR) makes it possible to recall the missions.

An electric laboratory on the theme of light and textile comes to life in this capsule to the rhythm of a choreography of luminous pulsations that bring to life the Lux dress created by the famous fashion house On Aura Tout Vu (FR).
A dress with moon reflections accompanied by a fun little monster highlights the French know-how of haute-couture and new technologies in collaboration with French companies.

An imaginary landscape in the form of a spiral towards infinity presents two prototypes in bio-based flax composite, made by the company MDI Prod (FR) in partnership with Van Robaeys (FR): Green’Air and AirLight.
The cart dedicated to golf or tourist complexes Green’Air is a prototype being marketed incorporating innovations both in terms of a compressed air engine and a linen composite body.
