Do you want to upcycle some of those discarded or unfinished projects and lovely textiles you have lying around? This workshop could be for you.

Adrienne Doig works in a variety of media including embroidery, applique sculpture, paint, video and multimedia. A common theme in her work is self- portraiture and recording everyday life. Adrienne’s art practice is concerned with representations of the intimate details of life, a cup of tea, housework, as well as experiences with nature, which also relate to wider environmental and political issues. Often her work includes adapting ready-made household items such as tea towels of soft furnishings into the background of her self-portraits. By manipulating, reworking and combining imagery from multiple sources Adrienne records her own experiences within a larger context. 

Participants are asked to bring: previously unfinished projects, old or recycled items to work on (e.g. scrap fabrics. old clothes and recycled items)
