SUMMARY:Workshop: sara lundén: theory and craft of finnish ryijy heritage
DESCRIPTION:The textile expert and practitioner Sara Lundén is travelling 
 to Central-Europe in November. Her trip will include a stop at _nannatexti
 les in Stuttgart\, Germany. \n\nNanna is pleased to announce the brief Sar
 a-Ryijy-Course at her studio-workshop on 9 November. The course fee includ
 es Sara’s introductory lecture\, her instruction\, handouts\, all necess
 ary Ryijy-material and “Swabian Vesper” (salad\, veggies\, bread\, che
 ese\, hummus\, nuts\, fruit\, tea and water). \n\nOn the photo the green a
 nd brown wool-pile of a Ryijy is visible. The pile has\, depending on a Ry
 ijy-design\, different lengts\, mixtures and thickness of yarn. Innovative
  material\, like electric cable\, can also be used as pile. The back side 
 gives information on the technique of Ryijy-crafting\, alternate rows of g
 rey and green can be distinguised. \n\nToday a Ryijy-artisan may sit at a 
 loom\, but does not have to\, in order to work simultaneously on knotting 
 the pile and weaving the inbetween rows of the base-material. If no loom i
 s available\, it is fully acceptable to use handwoven Ryijy-base-material 
 and to separately knot the design on it. There are still plenty of paramet
 ers that a designer or artisan can vary and manipulate\, in order to creat
 e an individual piece of art. Not everyone in today's Finland owns a loom.
  It takes up space in city-apartments. \n\nDuring ETAK 2023 (European Arti
 stic Crafts Days) in spring 2023  Nanna experienced a fruitful collaborati
 on with the reputable Ryijy-educator and wool-promoter Jenni Vanhane. She 
 is based in Nummela\, Finland. Jenni teaches at e.g. Wetterhoff in Hämeen
 linna\, Finland\, and her method and aim in modernizing the Ryijy-heritage
  in Finland includes the use of a computer software program. In Jenni's ad
 aption color-variations and mixture of color hues are the focus\, not the 
 base-material.\n\nSara is a textile expert and fierce researcher with a st
 rong background in textile design. Her expertise and experience in weaving
  and her passion for teaching makes Sara a valued instructor. Sara widely 
 researches traditional textile heritage techniques\, especially those rela
 ted to patterns and weaving.\n\nSara delves in historical archives and clo
 sely studies textile objects to unravel forgotten or unknown methods of ma
 king. She works like a detective. Her contacts to museum collections furth
 er showcases her dedication in reviving and documenting traditional textil
 e topics.\n\nPlease join Sara’s class if you are interested in historica
 l and practical aspects of Ryijy textile art. Participants gain hands-on e
 xperience in the crafting method. No prior textile skills are needed. The 
 finishing of the Ryijy can be continued at home\, if the time is too short
  in class. You will be given all needed material for finishing your piece 
 at home. The language of instruction is English. Nanna is present througho
 ut the class and can explain the working-steps into German.\n\nFoto: Nanna
