COURSE DESCRIPTION
Exploring the qualities of cloth and hand stitch in a neutral palette with particular emphasis on flat to form.
SPACE TENSION WEIGHT MOVEMENT SUSPENSION TRANSLUCENCY FRAGILITY TOUCH STRENGTH STRETCH
The above are just a few of the elements that we will challenge by being creative with bias, shaping, construction, right side/wrong side. This 2 day course is very much about experimenting and taking risks. You may not go away with resolved pieces but you will have lots of ideas to develop back in your studio.
THE COURSE WILL INVOLVE:
- Responding to primary source.
- Recognising the process of developing concept, imagery and qualities.
- Working with the inherent qualities of cloth.
- Using hand stitch as a functional element.
- Rediscovering techniques in a new context especially three dimension.
- Understanding your own individual visual language.

Amanda is passionate about the purity of cloth and thread. She enjoys a positive studio atmosphere of encouraging students and identifying their individual strengths whilst supporting an informed working process. She feels working primarily in neutrals can put the emphasis on elements that can ordinarily be overlooked.
