SUMMARY:Julia Wright - Workshop - Landscape Surfaces
DESCRIPTION:Students will experiment with fabric manipulation techniques including wrapping and binding\, entrapment and hand couching to create colourful\, textural\, mixed media pieces inspired by close-up details seen in landscapes and coastal areas. We will work with mixed natural fabrics to create structural fabric forms which can then be combined and hand stitched onto backing fabrics to begin a more resolved composition or remain as a series of separate samples.  \nNo previous experience is needed \n \nMaterials required \nAll participants will need  \n\n2-3 reels of sewing threads to suit their chosen colour palette \nhand sewing needles (including an embroidery needle) \nscissors \nsmall pieces of wadding/old cushion stuffing\nembroidery hoop\n\nOptional \n\ndelicate fabric scraps (silk\, muslin\, scrim\, ramie\, organdie\, thin linen)\nEmbroidery threads\n\nSewing threads and embellishments will be provided \nOptional resource packs/dyed fabrics will be available to buy \nAbout Julia \nJulia trained in Applied Design at Edinburgh College of Art and has been teaching Textiles and exhibiting for over 25 years. Now based in Manchester\, England her textural mixed media textiles pieces suggest fragments of landscape without being figurative. Work is inspired by weathered\, organic\, irregular forms and the repetition of simple shapes\, like clusters of barnacles\, knotted tree roots and growth patterns of lichen. \nWebsite – http://www.juliawright.co.uk \nInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/julia_._wright/ \nPlease bring your own lunch.  There will be tea / coffee and biscuits provided.\nNB.  All electrical equipment you bring to the workshop\, MUST have a current PAT certificate. \n\nBooking Terms and Conditions:\nThe fee is non-refundable if you cancel (unless another person can take your place.)\nWe occasionally have a waiting list for a workshop and if that is the case your place would be offered to the next person on the list. If there isn’t a waiting list then you might know someone who could take your place. \nWith this in mind\, please let Bookings know as soon as possible if you are unable to attend.\nBookings queries please email bookings@texgroup.org.uk
