March 7-9 Saar Snoek, Nature-Nurture, Exploratory Textural Sculptures

The natural world is an endless source of inspiration for felt makers: sea creatures, seed pods, succulents… endless variety but also many similarities. Patterns that repeat everywhere and are visible in nature: multiple symmetries, repeating rhythms and patterns, scales, protrusions.

In this workshop, we will experiment with these characteristics to create new creatures. A kind of evolution in felt!

In the meantime, you will learn more about:

• How to create a repeating pattern on a three-dimensional shape
• How to construct a complex three-dimensional form
• Different ways to connect materials
• Recognizing and understanding the different stages of felting to gain more control over your process
• Learn how to bring expression in your sculpture with shaping tools
• Play and let go of expectations

There will be 8 participants in this workshop.
