About The Event
Workshop 2: July 1: Pandanus, lomandra & cordyline double-strand twist weave 10.30am – 3.30
Create a medicine pot using a double-strand twisting technique with pandanus spiralus from Arnhem Land and a selection of local fibres.
Experience the ancient art of basket weaving as a deeply mindful and contemplative practice. Using natural materials from the land, you’ll learn to weave individual strands of fibre together to form a whole creation, while recognising and acknowledging the mirrors and metaphors that bind us together with nature and each other. Together we’ll weave baskets that hold in their fibres all of the stories we share, flowing in symphony with the songs of nature.
Two days, two different techniques & fibres. Workshops can be attended individually, or booked as a duo. (Discounts for multiple day bookings.)
Cost: $120.
