Spirella Unbound
An exhibition of artwork inspired by the rich history of the Spirella building, Letchworth Garden City.
Lucy Sugden - Herts Visual Arts Textile Group
Learn how to create 3D form from a flat weave using pulled warp processes.
In this workshop we will explore how to create 3D form using tapestry weaving techniques to produce corset and Spirella inspired shapes, linked to Lucy’s artwork in the Spirella Unbound exhibition. During the workshop you will weave a 2D shape following a pattern created by Lucy, which once complete will be finished by pulling the warps to create a small three-dimensional piece, playing with the idea of pulling the laces to tighten a corset.
Don’t know your warp from your weft, don’t worry no previous weaving skills are required. This workshop is suitable for adults and accompanied children aged 14 and over.
£30 p/p all materials and equipment provided.
