Brincando com a tradição

Trabalhando com designers, artistas e ilustradores, Célia Esteves dos tapetes GUR combina desde 2012 a herança da tecelagem tradicional de Portugal com um toque de diversão e design.

“Os desperdícios da indústria têxtil local tornam-se um meio para revelar as ideias mais inesperadas de artistas, designers ou ilustradores de diversas culturas e origens. Através desta antiga – mas ainda amplamente utilizada – habilidade, Gur prova que o artesanato tem o poder de inovar, envolver e abraçar o futuro informado pela tradição.”

Playing with tradition

Working with designers, artists and illustrators, Célia Esteves of rugs by GUR blends since 2012 Portugal’s traditional weaving heritage with a touch of fun and design.

“The waste from the local textile industry becomes a medium to reveal the most unexpected ideas of artists, designers, or illustrators from diverse cultures and backgrounds. Through this ancient – but still widely used – skill, Gur proves that craftsmanship has the power to innovate, engage and embrace the future informed by tradition.”
