HSE - Tempesta

HSE - Tempesta silk is a natural silk for scenography.
It is a timeless fabric of ancient origin, the synthetic imitations such as the artificial silks HSP - Tempesta Poly and HSX - Sintex are superior in width, resistance and fireproofing, but are unable to fully imitate its impalpability and light reaction properties.
Its lightness makes it almost endowed with a life of its own, an imperceptible movement of the air is enough to make the surface of even large backdrops vibrate.
A wind effect, on the other hand, makes them swell in a spectacular way.
It is used for the creation of flat scenographic backdrops, sometimes with Kabuki opening, for draped curtains, in strips for choreographic movements.
Some famous installations by Josef Svoboda and Luciano Damiani have handed it down to history as a queen of the stage and, to date, the relative fragility and defects typical of a fabric still produced with artisanal standards are not enough to overshadow it.
It is also used in the HSE - Tempesta digital printing and HSK - Tempesta Stropicciata versions.
