Science and Prevention at the Intersection of Fashion and Creativity at ICAR 2026<\/em><\/p>\n On the occasion of ICAR 2026, the HABITUS exhibition arrived in Sicily, presented in a phygital\u2014physical and digital\u2014format. This expanded its awareness initiative through an innovative, accessible language combining art, fashion, and social advocacy.\n Born from the meeting of applied arts, fashion, and design with ANLAIDS\u2019s 40-year commitment to the fight against HIV\/AIDS, HABITUS builds a transmedia bridge across artistic disciplines, generations, and active citizenship practices, highlighting the potential of culture as a driver for well-being and social change. The project is made possible through the unconditional support of Gilead and ViiV.<\/p>\n This initiative fully embodies the spirit of the recent Memorandum of Understanding signed by the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Health in April 2026, which recognizes culture as a catalyst for inclusion, prevention, and enhanced quality of life. From this perspective, HABITUS serves as a concrete example of how artistic expression can help spread knowledge, dismantle prejudice, and encourage more conscious engagement with public health issues.<\/p>\n Through the digital version showcased at ICAR 2026, HABITUS has further amplified its message, making the experience accessible to a broader audience and confirming fashion and creativity\u2019s power to serve as a platform for dialogue, education, information, and social inclusion.<\/p>\n For more information:<\/strong> Una mostra virtuale che ha portato a ICAR2026 tutta la […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1361,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1350","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1350","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1350"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1350\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1491,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1350\/revisions\/1491"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1361"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1350"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1350"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habituslab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1350"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
\nThanks to the video exhibition, ICAR 2026 attendees were able to view the 36 finalist sketches and 3 physical garments created by designers from across Italy, transforming clothing into a communication tool capable of promoting a culture of prevention, sexual health awareness, and combating HIV-related stigma. Each creation served as a visual manifesto celebrating inclusion, rights, and collective responsibility.<\/p>\n
