In an increasingly complex world of eco choices, how do we, as artists and makers, respond within the realm of our own practice?
This workshop investigates the use of fibre as part of a low footprint creative response, and considers the use of discarded objects in combination with fibre materials and processes. How might material culture meet with the natural world?
A workshop promoting thinking, writing and creative play with materials. Participants will experience a series of creative challenges, aiming to inspire any number of future works!
A background in the use of natural fibre is an advantage but not essential.
Material fee: approx. $25

Bio
Kate Campbell-Pope is a visual artist with a practice which includes studio works, community arts, public art, teaching, curating, and mentoring. She has exhibited extensively in exhibitions locally, nationally, and internationally in Chile and Japan. Kate’s work is mostly sculptural in nature. Her work with natural fibre and textiles uses both constructional and decorative stitch, adapted basketry techniques and random weaving. Kate is interested in the relationships between materials and meaning, and her work commonly concerns the natural environment and the human place within it.
Local flora is used both as referenced motif and the material fibre from which works are created. Kate’s practice also encompasses drawing, painting, installation, and ceramics.
