Learn the ancient and awesome art of wet felting while creating your own unique woolly flowers during this 3 hour workshop. Using wool roving, hot water, olive oil soap and your own two hands, you can transform wool roving into sculpt-able handmade felt. You will learn how to wet felt, how to create organic forms and how to make multi layered felt to build up multiple layers of petals to create lovely floral fiber art!
More about Mallory:
Mallory Zondag is a mixed-media fiber artist and artist educator. Her experience with textiles while in art school led her to create both independent and community sculpture through a variety of fiber art mediums. She explores deeply personal and connective universal stories through the meditative and hands-on practices of wet felting, weaving, sculpting, and stitching, seeking to bring the ephemeral into physical being. The growth and decay of the natural world, the duality of discomfort and attraction we feel towards it, and humanity’s place within this dichotomy informs her dimensional textures and sculptural pieces.
