This project marks the launch of Tal Waldman’s Qurt textile furniture—Récits Tissés (Woven Stories)—a functional and poetic piece, hand-painted and designed using the Qurt Storage module. Three wool wall hangings accompany it, as well as embroidered drawings. Tal Waldman’s hybrid practice combines different mediums—including textiles—in an introspective and narrative design approach. She explores textiles as a vehicle for memory, identity, and belonging, revisiting the notion of “at home” through a language of gestures, materials, and symbols.

Récits Tissés (2025) reinterprets the Qurt Storage module in hand-painted wool. It embodies a poetic synthesis of the Récits Tissés series, which explores textiles as a language of memory and a space of belonging. Conceived as part of a nomadic approach, inspired by travels across several continents, the piece combines art, design, and ecology to offer a meditative perspective on contemporary living. Here, textiles become a sensitive medium where function and poetry engage in dialogue.

Fibres d’ancrage (2025),  Ces trois tapisseries en laine peinte à la main franchissent la frontière entre tissage et peinture, entre fonction et symbole. Dans l’une, des cheveux féminins mêlés à la laine tissent un lien intime avec l’histoire ancestrale ; dans l’autre, des tiges de
bois forment une structure tridimensionnelle, incarnant l’ancrage et la tension. Le geste du tissage — répétitif et méditatif — incarne le temps, la patience, et l’entrelacement des récits. En détournant le textile de sa fonction utilitaire, Waldman interroge la limite entre objet domestique et œuvre d’art. Ces tapisseries deviennent des espaces de passage, évoquant à la fois l’enracinement, le déracinement et la renaissance.

Anchor Fibers (2025), These three hand-painted wool tapestries cross the boundary between weaving and painting, between function and symbol. In one, women’s hair mixed with wool weaves an intimate connection with ancestral history; in another, wooden rods form a three-dimensional structure, embodying anchoring and tension. The act of weaving—repetitive and meditative—embodies time, patience, and the intertwining of narratives. By diverting textiles from their utilitarian function, Waldman questions the boundary between domestic object and work of art. These tapestries become spaces of passage, evoking at once rootedness, uprootedness, and rebirth.
