Crafted entirely by hand with recycled wool from Portuguese textile factories, Coral Garden is a textile sculpture that captures the richness and fragility of marine ecosystems. The vibrant textures, layered forms and earthy tones evoke the biodiversity of coral reefs — a visual reminder of nature’s balance and beauty.
Vanessa Barragão, a Portuguese artist from Albufeira, infuses her work with a deep connection to the ocean. Her technique, rooted in traditional artisanal methods, brings both ecological awareness and tactile warmth into the interiors she touches. This piece anchors the space with softness and presence — a living tapestry of memory and meaning.
