A Trip To The Bosco Didattico (Educational Forest) In The Ciminian Forest

Off To School In The Forest

Ceramic Patchwork: A Textile Process In A Ceramic Form

Zoë Hillyard is an artist that grew up in a family where make do and mend was the norm. In her interview with No Serial Number Magazine, she recalled the times when she used to visit jumble sales and car-boot sales and when even a visit to the ‘tip’ would yield treasures from discarded stuff. We interviewed Zoë to find out about her Ceramic Patchwork technique and ended up learning a lot about her journey through her textile design degree, her postgraduate work in development studies, and then her travels. Throughout this journey, she has been incredibly inspired by indigenous cultures and nomadic lifestyles, which led her to explore and pursue simple and functional art forms.

I am fortunate to own the round braided rug that she made about 57 years ago out of Pendleton wool scraps.
