Workshop: Layers of Making

Layers of Making is a workshop by artist David Lunney exploring his string wrapping processes. In Lunney’s practice, all surfaces are decorated and adorned, often with neat rows of colourful strings, wools, ribbons and beads.

Through the act of making Lunney will guide the participants through these processes and, in doing so elucidate some of the formal and conceptual concerns of his practice.

Using the artist’s vast collection of haberdashery each participant will complete a small wrapped pictorial panel which the can bring home.

Deadline for applications: Friday, 20th of May 2022. Closed
