Zoom Talk: Trash to Treasure, with Pat Archibald

March 1 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Inspired by the Textiles and Craftspeople of Ghana

I  transport you virtually to far flung places and describe how artists and craftworkers in very underprivileged parts of the world combine their resourcefulness with what is available to them locally to produce fabulous textiles and artworks.
Travelling the length and breadth of Ghana brought me into contact with textile artists, beadmakers, basket makers and potters. From virtually nothing, these makers produce high quality fabrics and artefacts. Their work and craftsmanship have in turn influenced and shaped my textile work. Follow me through a design process and at the end of the lecture I will show some of the artists’ works alongside my art quilts.
