Samples, Strategies and Stories WorkshopThis workshop will explore contemporary and conceptual approaches to working with textiles. It will focus on developing ideas through a process-based approach to practice. We will explore a series of topics, including relationships to place, making-do, and textile traditions, investigating these through discussions and short projects. Participants will be encouraged to generate ideas through strategies including research, discussion, detailed recording, sampling, and short playful projects. The workshop will lead to the development of self-directed projects. This workshop includes a small research project to be carried out in advance. (Workshop suitable for experienced participants.) (No materials fee.)
