Born in Brussels in 1989, Justine Van Impe lives and works between Liège and Brussels.

After studying textile design and tapestry at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, she developed an artistic practice at the intersection of art, craftsmanship and design.

Since 2022, she has focused on high-warp tapestry and soft textile sculpture, exploring thread as both material and structure. Drawing on the legacy of the New Tapestry movement and Fiber Art, she revisits traditional techniques, creating a dialogue between textile, volume and space.

Her work is rooted in a sensitive relationship with materials, gestures and the passage of time. Inspired by the natural world, she favours natural wool, used in its raw shades or transformed through plant-based dyeing, embracing a slow and thoughtful creative process.

Her work has been presented in Munich and at Milan Design Week. In 2025, she took part in a textile residency in Aubusson, before being selected for the 2026 Homo Faber Biennial in Venice.
