Constructed Felt Vessel: Edge Welding Textured Panels & Cylinders

Participants will explore 3D techniques for creating unique small scale pendants with hanging bails using 2D template resists.

Learn to encase durable objects to add color, texture, material complexity and conceptual relevancy in your work.

By simply wrapping fiber around an object, one doesn’t provide ample space for the fibers to felt and therefore one must employ a resist larger than the object, which involved just a little calculation! Then, sculpt hollow form using surface resists to create dimensional planes of felt and embed partial felt within the surface to develop convex protrusions through differential shrinkage.
