About the course
This course emphasizes the sculptural potential of textiles. Over eight weeks you will learn how to make cordage, build coil baskets, looped baskets, and some basic weaving techniques. You will be encouraged to experiment with and incorporate different materials and knowledge to make new combinations and find unexpected solutions. We will think through and build supports for your textile work using wood, papier maché, cardboard or other. Throughout the course you will be introduced to contemporary artists working with textiles as sculpture. No prerequisite.
