Elvire Debitus · Brittany ·France

Elvire Debitus is a French artist based in the countryside of Brittany. Her work explores the links between photography, memory, and quiet observation, translated into handwoven tapestries rooted in the tradition of the Gobelins Manufactory where she trained.

Working with the rare craft of high warp tapestry, she follows a slow and precise process in which each piece is woven entirely by hand with wool yarn on a traditional loom. This ancestral technique gives her work its distinctive texture, depth, and living colours, shaped through the eye, the hand, and the steady rhythm of weaving. Read our interview with her.
