Papel-Stan

My solo exhibtion opens this Thursday evening 7-9 in the Sunburst Gallery, Ards Arts Centre. Papel-Stan means Pebble-Stone in Old English. Here's the blurb from the events guide...this solo thing is a first for me, I'm hoping it's not a last, all this making has been fun!

papel-stān an exhibition by Zoe Phenix

This exhibition explores the celebration of natural elements within textile compositions. Each piece created has been composed using carefully chosen materials, including reclaimed fabrics, antique threads and found elements. Zoe’s approach to colour and composition transforms a space and her showcase of creations is something distinctively beautiful.

Belfast Mela 2011

Tomorrow I'll be teaching a workshop at the Belfast Mela (Botanic Gardens) on how to make an Eco Bag! The whole event is open from 12 through to 8.30 in the evening but the workshop will run from 1-3pm in the Craft Tent. It's a fantastic festival, check out the website for all the fun stuff going on, if you do make it down, come say hi. I'll post some photos of all the crafty festival goers after the event!
