This project invites you to call on your creativity.

​

Sebastien will be teaching us how to create a beautiful, versatile hand-woven panel with exclusive materials. After warping the loom, creating a “shed”, and loading the shuttle, you will be able to weave successive layers of thread. As the threads come together, they’ll be reminiscent of the UAE’s history, with its alluring successive imagery that signifies the desert, the pearl industry, the gold trade, and the unearthing of oil.

Gold coated thread, iridescent waxed cotton, and fiber thread will blend together flawlessly to form a contemporary textile artwork.

​

Sebastien will offer his guidance and grant you the artistic freedom to design your own composition in the order you desire.
Your final product will be a hand-woven panel expressing your personal interpretation of the overall notion. This will be your authentic masterpiece!
