Marie Hazard & Constança Entrudo: AD HOC

26 June – 26 July, 2026

In June, CHERUBY welcomes Paris-based textile artist Marie Hazard and Lisbon-based fashion designer Constança Entrudo for a one-month residency in Shanghai, centered around their collaborative project AD HOC. As the second chapter of CHERUBY’s 2026 summer programme A Pop-up of A Pop-up, AD HOC unfolds alongside Zhao Chenxi’s exhibition Pop-down, sharing both time and space within CHERUBY as the two projects unfold in parallel.

Translated from Latin, ad hoc means “for this”—something devised for a specific situation rather than according to a permanent or predetermined plan.Since its inception in 2024, the project has evolved through the two practitioners’ ongoing journeys between Paris and Lisbon, sustained by an exchange of materials, techniques, and references. AD HOC operates at the intersection of textile art and fashion practice, exploring how artistic research can enter the realm of everyday wear, and how clothing can function as a medium for thinking, making, and expression. Textile art introduces an attentiveness to materiality, technique, and narrative; fashion brings the presence of the body, movement, and the lived experience of wearing. Together, these approaches open up new forms in which clothing functions simultaneously as an artistic medium and as a vector for spatial and poetic dialogue.

Marie Hazard’s practice moves between traditional craft and industrial textile production, combining weaving, photography, and installation to explore memory, family histories, and women’s labour. She translates everyday images, text, and personal experiences into woven surfaces while expanding weaving beyond the wall into sculpture, landscape, and spatial installation. For Hazard, weaving is both a practical craft and a long-standing language through which women have expressed themselves. Constança Entrudo is known for her playful and experimental approach to textiles and fashion. Reimagining familiar garments through unexpected materials and techniques, she challenges established narratives around clothing while moving fluidly between fashion, textile design, art, and spatial practice. Her work continually pushes the boundaries of what clothing can be. Both artists studied at Central Saint Martins before pursuing distinct paths—Hazard toward textile art and Entrudo toward fashion design. While their practices differ, they share a common interest in weaving as a language. Hazard emphasises tactile woven structures, while Entrudo explores digitally layered textiles and technological processes.

Both often work with the weft as a structural foundation, introducing the warp as an element of intervention and variation. In their collaboration, textiles belong neither to art nor to fashion alone; instead, cloth becomes the common ground through which both disciplines are reconsidered on equal terms. Questions of temporality run throughout AD HOC. Together, the artists examine the labour embedded in textile production and consider how contemporary technologies have transformed its rhythms and conditions. Following a residency and exhibition at Studio2M in New York, they now continue the project at CHERUBY through site-based research, material experimentation, wearable sculpture, and performative practice.

About the Artist

Marie Hazard (b. 1994, France) is a textile artist whose work bridges traditional craftsmanship and industrial textile processes. A graduate of Central Saint Martins, London, she combines weaving, digital printing, photography, painting, and literature to develop a distinctive material language that explores the relationship between image, textile, and memory.

Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at Dallas Contemporary (2025), Centre Tignous d’Art Contemporain, Montreuil (2025), the Alina Szapocznikow Foundation, Warsaw, Mobilier National and the Instituto Francés de América Latina, Mexico City (2024), Villa Belleville, Paris (2023), Galeria Mascota, Mexico City (2022), and the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum (2019). A recipient of the Clothworkers’ Material Fund Prize (2017), she was awarded the THREAD Residency at the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, Senegal (2024), and selected for its Bethany residency programme (2027). In 2022, she co-founded Potyra, an art centre in Serra Grande, Brazil, supporting emerging artists.

Constança Entrudo is a Portuguese textile designer known for a fluid and experimental approach to fashion. After graduating from Central Saint Martins, London, with a BA in Textile Design specialising in print, she developed her practice working with studios including Balmain and Peter Pilotto before founding her own research and design studio and launching her namesake label in 2019.

Through original textiles, handcrafted garments, and material research, Entrudo investigates the relationship between craft, technology, and contemporary modes of production. Her practice is distinguished by innovative techniques spanning embroidery, weaving, digital printing, and dyeing, which she employs to reinterpret familiar forms and challenge conventional material narratives. Combining unexpected details with a youthful and contemporary sensibility, her work moves fluidly between fashion, textile design, art, and interiors. Entrudo has presented collections at New York Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, and ModaLisboa, and collaborates with brands including Camper and Timberland, alongside industrial and artisanal partnerships that bridge traditional techniques with contemporary design. Her work is held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Museu do Design e da Moda, Lisbon.
