Profile

After obtaining a Brevet des Métiers d’Art Arts et Techniques de la Tapisserie de basse guerre and a Diplôme National Supérieur d’Expression Plastique, Delphine Mangeret created her colorist-cartoon maker workshop for Aubusson tapestry in 2007.

As part of projects initiated by the Cité Internationale de la Tapisserie such as “Aubusson weaves Tolkien”, “The world of Hayao Miyazaki in Aubusson Tapestry” and “Hommage à George Sand”, she collaborates with artists, spinners, dyers and weavers to interpret artistic projects in tapestry.
Her work preparing a weaving includes developing the aesthetic line, choosing the different types of threads, building the color range, tracing the cardboard and establishing a harmonious, creative and dynamic collaboration between the different trades involved in making these tapestries.

Since 2014, as part of the training center set up by the Cité de la Tapisserie and managed by the Greta du Limousin, she has been passing on her skills in color and cardboard production to new generations of weavers, contributing to the preservation and development of this traditional know-how.
