A guide to incorporating natural materials and fostering experimentation in woven projects.
In Wild Weave, textile artist Alice Fox encourages an open-minded and playful approach to creating beautiful and innovative woven artworks. Alice promotes the idea of engaging with simple tools and technology, as well as making use of locally sourced and unconventional materials, all of which can produce exciting results.
Packed full of introductory information, the book covers everything from the historical background of weaving to how it crosses boundaries between textiles, basketry, art and craft. She includes an introduction to frames, heddles and other simple tools, explaining how you can use the most basic equipment including found, home-made and re-purposed structures.
Packed with practical advice and beautiful photography of the artist’s own work, Wild Weave covers:
• Sourcing materials and an introduction to equipment.
• Weaving on frames, in the round, three-dimensionally and ephemerally.
• Examples of weave-based ideas for recording landscape and ‘spirit of place’.
• Techniques for working with alternative materials, which may be rigid or fragile.
This book is ideal for anyone wanting to develop their textile art practice to include natural materials, or for newcomers seeking inspiration without the requirements of expensive tools or materials.
