About this title

Synopsis

"This book is an exploration of modern basketry, a craft that has transcended from craft to art form. Its pages guide the reader through a visual journey of the background and works of fourteen Australian basketry artists. It is both a celebration of the creative voice each with basketry at its core. Stunningly designed and illustrated, these pages serve as a compendium of beautiful makers, guiding the reader on a range of basketry techniques; some with an interesting twist on the traditional. It will invite the viewer to explore different mediums, plant fibres, and recycled materials--to use in their own sustainable, creative practice. Also included is a practical directory of plants and recycled materials. The reader will be encouraged to explore these fibres--many of which they can find locally and through creative play and exploration develop beautiful works. Finding Form with Fibre is a visual delight to enjoy, encourage and inspire"--
