A Workshop 'Using Unconventional Materials' led by Adriana Nickless

Adriana has arranged paper origami shapes as her chosen unconventional material

This Sogetsu Wellington workshop will be held as usual in the Khandallah Town Hall on Sunday June 11, at 2pm - 4pm.

Adriana will focus on Book 4: lesson 11 - Using both fresh and unconventional materials and Book 5: lesson 7 - Composition using unconventional materials.  Adriana suggests the following:

Please can everyone bring along at least one unconventional material. This can include paper, fabric, plastic, metal, glass, etc. and can include items that can be used as containers (have a look at lesson 5:7 and photos below for examples). However you will not be using your material for your own arrangement. Instead, to enable more spontaneous arrangements, we will be sharing these materials with each other.

Please also bring along fresh material and extra containers for this so you can have a go at incorporating this into your arrangement. To assist with working with unconventional materials, also bring along cutting implements, fixings (e.g. tape), and gloves.
