Déjate Querer is a workshop that transforms felt into nomadic textile objects of woven assemblages that connect us physically and emotionally with our humanity.

Starting from a material that is and brings history and humanity to man, in his creations there is implicit history and cultural knowledge, nature and spirit, a productive and creative process that transforms concepts and traditions.

DQ weaves emotional connections. In the history of its material, in its creative and transformation process, and in the result, there are meaning fabrics that include an entire world and that at the same time provide new worlds, new territories that connect emotionally and physically with its user and space.

Its raw material has the tangible and intangible capacity to bring together all the elements that are important today for humanity and the environment. It has served to protect us physically and emotionally because it is thanks to touch that we can touch the world and feel present in it, it gives us a sense of belonging, it positively and significantly reconnects us with our material, natural and human world.

DQ's creations act like an archipelago: like a network of interrelationships that generates diversity, that connects places and actions on them. If the traditional tableau delimits and is finite like a continent, DQ enables flexible, nomadic territories.

Its rugs can migrate, reconfigure, resize, unravel, grow, shrink, change shape, hang, fold, giving the space and the user unlimited possibilities.

DQ surpasses the thread, unlike a conventional rug with two linear variables (weft and warp, point and line), the thread evolves it into a designed object in itself.

If space is the effect of material and immaterial interconnections, DQ rugs act in multiple non-linear dimensions: it is made up of interconnected pieces of felt, a material that at the same time is made up of interconnections of wool, in turn, the rug creates a space that interconnects physically and emotionally.

DQ reconciles the industrially produced and the manually created. Her creations are born from manual experimentation (with a material from an ancient technique), evolve with its digitization (its minimum units are designed and reproduced thanks to digital technology), to be united again by the universal understanding of weaving that provokes encounters. social, and finally with the mat you have a platform for human encounters.

In addition to a circular design where the life of its pieces begins with organic matter that is returned to the earth when it ends, DQ produces locally with a Zero Residue objective by continuing to create with the rest.

Textiles represent an important critical point of convergence for most of the urgent issues that we face, DQ bets on its transformative force of positive and real consequences, of social and environmental value, to face a present and future that already reached us.
