Form to Freedom played a pivotal role in unveiling my visual language by providing a structured yet liberating approach to artistic expression. The course empowered me to explore diverse forms and techniques, encouraging experimentation and pushing boundaries.
Iaki V.
I love the way that Harriet introduces traditional techniques but encourages learners to use and explore ways to develop original and contemporary forms and ideas. I have found it so inspiring and would have no hesitation in recommending it to friends.
Cherrie T.
I loved everything about this course. It was a very comprehensive introduction to weaving. It consolidated what I knew and taught me so much more. It is a course which anyone, no matter what stage of weaving they are at, will benefit from doing.
Alice H.
This Form to Freedom learning experience ignited my inner creative fire. This is just the beginning, and I feel honoured to hold knowledge of such a heart-warming and enriching practice, fraternising with the natural world through through fibre creation.

Whether you’re an experienced artist or a beginner, Form to Freedom will show you ways to turn your natural materials into unique fibre art.

Weave at your own pace

The problem with a live class is that you are limited by time. But in this online experience, you will do the equivalent of half a dozen live workshops with Harriet (we did the math!), indulging in a holistic look at basket weaving techniques as a springboard into fibre sculpture.

It may take you many weeks or even years to try out all the things Harriet will share with you in this course. Some of them may make you buzz with ideas more than others, but that’s how a great artist is made: with quiet persistence and steady practice.

By fully engaging with the course content, you will try out different processes and become adept at incorporating various materials into 3D fibre sculpture or learn to integrate weaving into your mixed media 2D pieces with your own unique expression.
