West Dean Workshop

I have been busy at West Dean College working with a very inspiring tutor - Michael Brennand Wood and a group of very talented students. We were all searching for our inner creative selves and I found the whole experience very liberating.

I am well underway with my corsetry experimentation and will post some images later on today when I have down loaded them. The work I have been doing is very experimental and some of it is quite bizarre! I am trying to think outside the box.

I found a brilliant quote while I was in the West Dean Library one evening, browsing the books on sculptural textiles.

'Thinking outside the box means to think the unthinkable and to suggest the ridiculous'
Janet Edmonds - 3 Dimensional Embroidery p15

This has become my mantra and will stay with me through the rest of this module. I love it!!
