From October 24, 2025 to March 29, 2026, the Immigration Museum, in partnership with the China National Silk Museum, presents an exhibition that invites visitors to immerse themselves in the millennia-long journey of silk and the deep cultural connections between East and West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Divided into three sections \u2014 The Origin of Silk, The Silk Roads, and The Beauty of Silk \u2014 the exhibition traces everything from the legends and early discoveries of sericulture in ancient China to the expansion of trade routes that shaped economies and cultures. Visitors follow how silk crossed continents through the historic Silk Road, connecting empires and influencing fashion, art, and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first section, The Origin of Silk, the early beginnings of producing the delicate thread that would become one of the most valuable products in the world are presented. In The Silk Roads, the narrative reveals how caravans, navigators, and merchants transformed the fabric into a bridge between civilizations. Finally, in The Beauty of Silk, the public can admire pieces that highlight aesthetic refinement, the diversity of techniques, and silk\u2019s role as an artistic and cultural expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition reinforces the power of cultural encounters and celebrates silk as a thread that weaves together stories, traditions, and transformations across centuries \u2014 a true link between past and present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jo\u00e3o Berdu, founder of Vale da Seda, was responsible for donating three silk artworks to the China National Silk Museum, located in Hangzhou. The pieces, created in 2014 by visual artists Ren\u00e9 and Valdir from Paran\u00e1, are now part of the museum\u2019s collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Berdu, the initiative began in 2024, when he left the space that Vale da Seda occupied at the Technological Incubator of Maring\u00e1, in Paran\u00e1. \u201cI recorded a video offering to donate the artworks that were in the museum to organizations that might be interested,\u201d he said. Later, the International Silk Union (ISU) \u2014 a network of silk-producing countries \u2014 facilitated contact with the Chinese museum, which was preparing an exhibition in Brazil scheduled for 2025. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
