Mariem Besbes , an artist that breathes new life into old weaving skills
What first catches the eye in the creations of Mariem Besbes , is the expressiveness of colours that remind the beauty of wild landscapes , in sand , sky or earth shades .
With undiminished vigour , she gets on with the work at hand to get the best from unknown ancestral techniques . Textile designer with a contemporary dance background , her creations combine weaving , dyeing and embroidery which she transgresses , transforming the original symbolic characteristics of a motif while giving it a second life and a story linked directly to the news . A scarf with stitches shaped sewing and dyed in Rothko ’ s style , a blanket woven like a gauze and reworked with fishing line immerse us in an aesthetic that keeps things anchored in reality , combining various materials and temporalities . Mariem Besbes enjoys working matter , playing with codes of weaving , without caring about fashion trends . She acquired a well deserved international recognition thanks to a free spirit that gives her textiles a timeless touch . From the latest Wanted Design in New York to big department stores in Tokyo , from Paris to Cape Town ( LIM ), the creator invents her own journey . The quality of her handmade textiles is her trademark . I
