Sculptural Weaving with Bark
with Rose Covert
May 5 | 10:00am-5:00pm
Tuition: $145.00 (all supplies included)
Hoffman Center for the Arts | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
Join May Gallery artist, Rose Covert, in this sculptural weaving class. Participants will use beginning basketry techniques including plaiting and twining to start their weave and then will explore using random weave to create a small woven form. Random weave is a freeform weaving style that allows for creative freedom resulting in a unique and interesting design.
Using hand-harvested and locally grown barks to weave into the basketry reed, this workshop will focus on the fundamentals of natural materials and mixed media fiber sculpture. We will discuss the harvesting and processing of the plants so that students will leave with information about gathering what grows near them to use in future projects. This class is appropriate for all skill levels; no prior weaving experience is necessary. It is also great for those who have experience with weaving and are looking to increase their weaving vocabulary. Participants will leave with a woven sculpture that will be unique in size, shape, and composition.
