TEXTILES/MIXED MEDIA – SUMMER SESSION 6

Mixed Media: Conversation with Nature

Paying close attention to the marks that time leaves behind in the environment, students in this workshop will explore ideas and expand their visual and conceptual language. We will use natural resources as well as found objects to create outdoor installations and objects in the studio. Through slideshows, discussions, demonstrations, and mini-exercises, students will be introduced to new ways of working and dealing with materials. Among other methods, we will use fiber handbuilding techniques such as looping, coiling, knotting, basketry, and stitching. This workshop is less of a how-to and more of an experience in discovery, questioning, and finding ongoing ways of working. All levels. Lower textiles studio. This workshop takes place in a second-floor walk-up studio that has partial access by a stair lift.
