More details

Visible mending is the act of highlighting the stitches you use to repair something. This six-week course will provide an opportunity for you to mend and transform domestic items in need of repair into objects of beauty. Every week we will review the words and artworks of people involved in the act of repairing our world. You will be encouraged to work with items close to you because the work of repair begins with each of us, and your mending will serve as metaphor of art and action in the world. The course will focus on the slow skills used to repair woven and knit fabrics, and opportunity to connect this work to your art practice through discussion and optional extensions for your assignments. TUESDAYS, MAY 13 - JUN 17, 10AM - 1PM IN-PERSON
