Sidival Fila, a Franciscan friar minor, artist, and the President of the philanthropic foundation that carries his name, roots his artistic research on disused materials, mostly fabrics, including linen, cotton, silk, hemp, brocade, and other used materials. His idea is to free the object from its "material" condition and give it the possibility to express itself.
