2:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Elegance is not fixed. It evolves. Shaped by history, culture, and society, it takes on different meanings across the world - it is a cultural language, one that reflects identity, values, and expression.
WHAT WE WILL EXPLORE
• Is elegance universal - or does it mean something different in every culture?
• How would you define elegance in your own cultural context in one definition? And what is one thing the world misunderstands about elegance in your culture?
• Is elegance something we learn, or something we naturally embody?
