Tzuri Gueta

Tzuri Gueta grew up near the seashore, in direct contact with natural elements, and his creations reflect this connection. His work evokes dreamlike ocean depths filled with corals, petals, buds, corollas, lianas, and more. After graduating in textile engineering from Shenkar College near Tel Aviv, he settled in Paris and worked at Li Edelkoort’s Trend Union agency before focusing on textile design, combining traditional gestures with innovative techniques.

​

For almost twenty years, he has collaborated with major names in Haute Couture, including Jean Paul Gaultier, Stéphane Rolland, Givenchy, Christian Dior, Balmain, and Thierry Mugler, creating textiles and accessories that border on sculpture. A decisive encounter with silicone led him to develop his material of choice. By combining silicone with openwork textile materials, he invented the patented silicone lace technique in 2005. The materials he produces with this method are fluid and mysterious, often surprising viewers because their tactile qualities differ from their visual appearance.
