Counterweave’s One-on-One Masterclass is especially tailored for artists wanting to experiment and extend their art practice. Spend an afternoon or two playing and experimenting with Australian textile and mixed media artist Felicity Griffin Clark. Located in the historic centre of Rome, Felicity’s studio is cosy and full of inspiration and different things to play with. ..
Based on the Meditating the Spindle workshop, this masterclass gives artists the opportunity to try the ancient skill of using a drop spindle. Explore the possibilities of using bespoke handspun wool and silk yarn in your work in a soothing, inspiring and supportive environment.
