For the Dutch magazine WEVEN I wrote an article ab For the Dutch magazine WEVEN I wrote an article about all kind of pickup techniques in inkle weaving together with Willy Kroon. It is now freely available (in Dutch). 

You can download it here Voor Weven schreef ik samen met Willy Kroon een artikel over opneemtechnieken in het bandweven. Weefnetwerk heeft dit artikel als voorbeeldartikel op de website geplaatst, dus kan ik het hier ook delen! 😃

Reposted from @marieke.gelissen In August 2021 I Reposted from @marieke.gelissen 

In August 2021 I wove a 'basket' from willow rods, in collaboration with weaver Barbara Mahler (@babsmahler). Not just 'a' basket, but a specific one with its own form and characteristics. 

Now I am working on a ‘woven poem’ to accompany this basket. This poem consists of quotes from legends and stories in which the basket has a symbolic or mythical function. These quotes are taken from H.H. Bobarts’ ‘Basketwork through the ages’, a remarkable publication that I luckily encountered at @vlechtmuseumnoordwolde 

The ‘woven poem’ will literally be woven. I am extremely happy that for this project I can work together with inkle and tablet weaving expert Marieke Kranenburg (@dutchinkleweaver). Her skills, expertise and network are crucial in this project.

A team of experienced weavers tested out a variety of techniques, materials and letter patterns. Based on that we made the final decisions on colors, materials and techniques. 

It will take a while before I can show you the results, since weaving by hand is a time consuming proces. But it is nice to give you a glimpse of the proces already.

🙏 Thanks a lot to @fonds_kwadraat for providing an artist loan that enabled me to take this project to the next level!
