Lily Alcaraz and Léa Berlier explore the potential of weaving by combining unconventional materials such as colored wood, leather and threads. Through a hands-on process, cut and shaped elements are interlaced on traditional looms to create distinctive textures, patterns and tactile surfaces.

Blending traditional craftsmanship with material experimentation, their bespoke weavings transform raw materials into sophisticated architectural surfaces and sculptural design elements.
