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.

Through this exhibition, Tal Waldman tells a poetic tale on the theme of the subconscious and dreams.The result of genuine exploratory work, his Random Directed series seeks the balance between disorder and order. The visitor discovers a spontaneous gesture which gives rise to a feeling of freedom. The aesthetic language of his drawings is similar to that of a poem: each of the lines constructs a harmonious dialogue with the visitor, who becomes a reader of imaginary words. Loaded with symbolism, the drawings presented at the Résidence Galerie are an ode to joy.Tal Waldman, WOMEN, 46×34 cm, 2019, dessin sur papier ©Tal WaldmanColors diffuse with different texture, brightness and intensity producing a vibrating effect. The nuances used in Civilization remains I explore the same chromatic variation. The multiple shades of green evoke lush vegetation blossoming freely. The Random Directed series thus deals with the importance of the subconscious which offers a necessary letting go of man.During his observation, the visitor sees figures appearing like this woman, in Women, who is holding her face between her hands. This position symbolizes the emotional state of the dreamer. Thanks to the inclination of the face, associated with the explosions of color, we enter directly into an unreal and wonderful universe.The artist experiments with the theme of consciousness and the subconscious, two opposites that punctuate our moods. Small and medium-sized, the composition of his drawings is deliberately unstructured in order to lead the viewer on the path of a quest for oneself.The Random Directed exhibition reveals the importance of chance, as a guide that plays a role in the construction of our identity. This exhibition opens a conversation with our emotions and our intellectualization of the world.

DIRECTED RANDOMNESS BY TAL WALDMAN – EXHIBITION

by François Beauxis-AussaletIn Biarritz / google translation

“The Résidence Galerie welcomes plastic artist Tal Waldman as part of her personal exhibition “Hasard Dirigé”, from April 30 to May 26. Tal Waldman is a polymorphic artist but her common thread remains the drawing. She has lived and studied art, architecture and mindfulness on several continents. His artistic creation focuses on experimentation with different media, bodily gestures and states of consciousness. She explores themes such as collective memory, identity and mindfulness. Winner of several awards, she exhibits internationally in salons, museums and galleries. This dreamlike series of small and medium-sized drawings explores the relationship between chaos and order, highlighting a process of “directed chance” in my gestures, between control and letting go. A movement that questions the place of chance and the subconscious as a tool of creation. The final design is woven into both unpredictable subconscious actions and controlled actions in a new order with possible new relationships between the two forces. Inspired by the spiritual dimension of determinism, kinesthetic calligraphy and stochastic art, the boundaries between the sacred and the secular are explored using intuitive and symbolic language. The use of gold refers to the sacred arts of enlightenment and my past studies of miniature painting in India. “
