Mason, Cameron (#6320) Three-Dimensional Fiber Sculpture, September 19-23

Take your fiber work into another dimension. In this workshop we will explore multiple ways to turn a two-dimensional flexible plane into fiber sculpture. You will use your own fabrics, either hand-dyed or commercial, easily accessible materials, and a sewing machine to create stable 3-dimensional objects. Starting with your images for design inspiration, we will turn drawings into patterns and patterns into finished work. Basic sewing skills suggested.

Instructor Bio: Cameron Mason was introduced to fiber art by using batik as a way to create large-scale elements for performance. Intrigued by the possibilities, she came upon the work of Jane Dunnewold and her book, Complex Cloth . Through a process of reading and experimenting, she has developed an extensive knowledge of surface design techniques. Her endless fascination with color and texture on cloth informs all of her artwork. Drawing on her background in graphic design and early work in performance, she makes fine art for the gallery, interactive installations, and celebration art for festivals and performance. She gets great satisfaction from teaching students of all ages. She shares her extensive research, studio technique, exploration and experimentation with students in her workshops.
