random weave baskets with foraged vines

instructed by sarah bell

Practice mindful creativity with random weave basket making with artist Sarah Bell. Using foraged natural materials, we will create meaningful basket vessels that embody land and spirit. Learn how to sustainably gather and forage vines and incorporate plant material into your baskets. This class is for beginners, and all participants will leave with a basket of their own creation.

 

All materials provided; however, the instructor does suggest you bring a pair of pruners to enhance your experience. All participants will need moderate hand strength to complete their baskets.

Sarah Bell is an artist, farmer, and educator based in Birmingham, Alabama. Descended from Chinese and American ancestry, she grew up using art and creativity as a way to find a sense of connection to her experiences of familial migration, grief, and home. She is greatly influenced and inspired by the use of natural and sustainable materials, ancestry of people and land, as well as ancient craft processes and land tending techniques that interweave into her daily engagement with place, materiality, and its impermanence.
