Shadow to Light: Workshop with Master Textile Artist Helena Hernmarck
Friday, July 27-Sunday, July 29 - 9 a.m.-5 p.m. each dayHelena Hernmarck, our era's legendary trompe-l'oeil weaver, offers the rare opportunity to get an insight into her weaving technique in a three-day workshop that will take place at the American Swedish Institute (ASI) in Minneapolis June 27-29, 2012. Hernmarck will explain and demonstrate her weaving technique, and students will then work under her guidance to weave a piece that creates the illusion of shadow on their own frame or table loom.
