Aurèlia Muñoz

Textile

Aurèlia Muñoz was a Spanish textile artist and weaver who worked primarily with natural fibers and traditional loom techniques during the postwar period. Her practice focused on the structural and tactile possibilities of woven form, creating wall-based works that emphasize pattern, rhythm, and material integrity. Based in Barcelona, she contributed to the revival of textile art as a serious medium in European modernism.
