Weaving life

Weaving and painting by Michele Morcos /  Offering of workshop materials

There is really nothing more inspiring for me than partaking in shared creative activities and making new friends along the way. I had the pleasure of attending a weaving workshop with Sydney based Michele Morcos who's work offers endless inspiration and energy.

I arrived late but the party was in full swing! Some familiar faces and some new people to meet, I quickly got straight into it as I had attended a class before and remembered the starting point. There were up-cycled materials in abundance and people were encouraged to bring materials from home to incorporate in the work. The beauty of the class was learning about the different ways to up-cycle materials into your weaving for texture and dimension- for example discarded fruit packaging and plastic bags! The class is really for beginners and I know there are a few coming up in Adelaide soI would encourage anyone who is able to attend.

Michele is one of those artists that gives every single one of her creations extraordinary consideration and so much of herself shines through the layers of beautiful artworks. Connection, sacredness, curiosity, hope and joy all flow from her pieces that are always buzzing with life and never pause, their vibrancy is so joyful to live with.
