Portfolio Store for Tapestry Artists
A portfolio designed for tapestry, not generic textile listings
Show the hanging in its intended space, then bring viewers closer to the weft, color transitions, and structural choices that make your weaving distinctive.
A Portfolio Built for Tapestry Artists
Show Surface and Structure
Pair a full view with close-ups of pile, slit joins, supplementary weft, and intricate color blending.
Document Installation Context
Include wall dimensions, hanging hardware, and in-room photographs for architects and curators.
Present Color as Material
Explain how dyed yarn, undyed wool, silk, or recycled fiber shapes the palette and light response.
Make Scale Legible
Record finished height and width, loom width where relevant, and a human or furniture reference for large work.
Update After Every Exhibition
Add installation views, new series, and commissions from your phone without rebuilding the presentation.
Help Commissioners Envision a Piece
Show sketches beside finished hangings and describe the brief, placement, and decisions behind the composition.
Different Approaches to Tapestry Practice
From gallery work to architectural commissions
Gallery and Exhibition Weavers
Group series by exhibition, with installation views, dimensions, and curatorial context alongside individual works.
Architectural Tapestry Studios
Present site-responsive panels, acoustic textile surfaces, and commissioned wall pieces with mounting notes.
Narrative and Pictorial Artists
Lead with woven storytelling, image development, color passages, and details that distinguish tapestry from printed fabric.
Let the viewer understand both the image and the labor
Tapestry is experienced at several distances. From across a room, a woven panel reads as color and composition; nearby, its rhythm of warp and weft becomes visible. Recreate that journey with a wide installation view, an accurate full-frame image, and a few precise details. Add dimensions and material notes so a collector can appreciate the object rather than mistake it for a digital illustration.

FAQ for Tapestry Artists
What should a tapestry artist show first?
Lead with a fully installed signature hanging, then a straight-on image and a detail showing how the image was woven.
Do I need to include the back of a tapestry?
Include reverse-side photographs when finishing, lining, or mounting matters to conservation or a commission.
How do I build a tapestry portfolio step by step?
Select finished pieces, document scale and materials, then arrange projects around coherent series.
What tapestry portfolio examples are useful?
Compare exhibition-focused, architectural, and narrative formats for your intended audience.
How can I photograph a large hanging accurately?
Use even light, square the camera to the wall, and include an installation view for context.
Should commissioned and personal tapestries be separated?
Separate them when clients need technical specifications; otherwise one series can show artistic direction and delivery.
