In this Paper Lace Artwork workshop you'll use yarn, thread, and recycled textiles to create a unique matrix that you will embed in varied paper pulps. The process will lead to the creation of finished artworks that resemble open weave or lace-like art, as well as sculptural forms created with biodegradable cups. Paper pulps will be premade, and a variety of colors of yarn, thread, and pulp will be provided. No experience is required, just bring a willingness to slowly create in community with your fellow workshop attendees. At the end of the workshop you will have 2 wet paper pulp pieces to bring home and dry.
