“Shibori Felt” - Sculptural Felting - Workshop #1.

WORKSHOP POSTPONED UNTIL 2021. Stay tuned as of Jan. 1, 2021 for NEW DATES and times.

Internationally renowned felt sculptor and designer Marjolein Dallinga comes from Quebec Canada to the Studio on the Knoll for her 3rd time teaching her fascinating felting in this 3-day workshop. Of Cirque du Soleil fame, this amazingly refreshing and kind felt sculptor offers this 3-day experience that will deepen the consciousness about experiences learned from sculpting with felt and other fibers. We will explore different shibori techniques for sculptural form, with themes like: folding and unfolding, building relief clamping and binding; all to become more aware of how, and why, we want to use this medium. This workshop is inspired by ideas to make a three dimensional sculpture. We will play with the processes of shortening, thickening, tightening, shrinking and other transformations of felted surfaces.

Focus will be on basics like color, design, and conceptions of an artwork. Some felting experience would be great, however, she will accept novice students. $450. Contact Carrie to be placed on the list to hold your spot! carriemoorestudios5@gmail.com or 503-866-5507. FILLING QUICKLY.
