Sculptural Works: Mapping Your Creative Process.
This workshop is appropriate for people who work in basketry and sculptural areas. If
you like your work but feel that it isn’t going where you want, or if you just feel stuck
in a rut, this workshop will help you map out new directions. The objective is not
necessarily to finish a project, but to provide insight into your own creative process.
Experience level: “Intermediate to Advanced” i.e. students will have a sense of their
“own” work, with confidence in the techniques and materials used.(A small materials fee may apply.)
Lissa Hunter received a BA in Painting and an MFA in Textile Design from Indiana
University, US. Her work is shown widely and is in the permanent collections of
the Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C., The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
and The Museum of Art and Design, New York, among others. For many years,
coiling, an ancient basketry technique, has been the basis of her sculptural work.
She also employs numerous other fibre techniques, as well as drawing and painting.
But she likes to think that her work is about ideas, and the materials and
techniques used are at the service of these ideas. That is what has kept a thirty year
career exciting and fresh for her.
