In this workshop with TALA director Carrie Burckle, participants will explore a variety of basketry beginning and finishing techniques, as well as constructing and shaping sculptural form through methods of adding and subtracting. Twining is a traditional basketry process referred to as off-loom weaving; it is a methodical, and rhythmic weaving process that relies on one’s ability to manipulate a weaver around a group of stakes or spokes. Twining easily lends itself to making curvilinear forms.

We will use Danish Cord as it builds form quickly and its flexibility allows easy manipulation.

Fee:
$100, materials included.
