Handmade Paper: Surface and Object
Session One: May 26-31
Heather Peters
Handmade Paper: Surface and Object
This workshop will begin by processing a variety of fibers to make Western-style paper. Using a Hollander beater to break down fibers, we will explore various ways to form sheets. This will be followed by an in-depth, practical analysis of drying techniques. Then we will dive into an exploration of pigments, natural dyes, and other color techniques both wet and dry paper. The outcome will be beautiful, individualized sheets and standalone paper art pieces with an ethereal, elemental presence. Looking at paper through a historical lens, we will talk about the importance of creating unique substrates and discuss ways of bringing papermaking into a variety of studio practices and set-ups. This workshop is perfect for new papermakers, and it will also be informative for those with experience. Beginning level.
