TAPESTRY ART

A charming craft that harks back to ancestral techniques.

This Brazilian visual artist, born in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, carries in her DNA the manual skills of the artisan women in her family and the strong cultural identity of the Pampas Gauchos.

Ju Bock

For Ju, the creative process is a continuous journey of discovery and passion for textile art. Mindful of sustainability practices, she seeks out local and ethical suppliers like those of the yarns used in all her works. 'Roots', a homage to life in Southern Brazil, reflects the artist's commitment to conscious materials and to the appreciation of her origins. The fibers come from Fios da Fazenda, a farm in the city of São Pedro do Sul, Brazil, which provides the skeins from responsibly raised sheep and dyes natural wool with pigments extracted from native plants of Rio Grande do Sul.

Creative Process

Surrounded by the sea breeze atmosphere that permeates the spaces of her home/studio, it was in Cascais, Portugal, that Ju found her refuge and definitive home after living in five different countries with her family. Facing the loom in the silence of the studio, her imagination wanders far, revisiting places that brought her unique, emotional moments. It is where the artist receives clients by appointment and brings countless skeins of wool scattered throughout the space to life, transforming them into true works of art.
