SUMMARY:Taller de Soles (Sol Lace Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Sol Lace Workshop /// Taller de Soles\nwith: Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda \nDescription\nLearn how to make beautiful and intricate lace pieces through a simple and meditative\ntechnique with Puerto Rican fiber artist\, Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda\, who will\nintroduce us to the technique as it is worked in her native country of Puerto Rico.\nUnderstanding the essence of the technique gives us a vocabulary that we can apply in\nboth traditional and experimental/contemporary contexts. \nWhat are Soles?\nSol lace is a type of needle lace usually worked in pieces or appliqués. The technique\nconsists of drawing a net of thread and then weaving and knotting radially to form\npatterns. It has its origins in Spain and arrived to the Americas in the 16th century\,\nwhere it continued to develop into variations known as Ñandutí\, Soles de Maracaibo\,\nRenda\, and simply Soles. Sol Lace is most often used to decorate heirloom clothing\,\nbaby blankets and home linens\, but also assembled to create beautiful lace fabrics and\naccessories. \nWorkshop – “Immersive Introduction to Sol Lace” – 6 hrs\nJoin us for an immersive workshop\, where you will learn about the origins of the\ntechnique and see traditional and contemporary examples. Zaida Adriana will share the\nbasic knowledge to make Soles of different sizes\, shapes\, and decorative patterns. You\nwill leave with two completed Soles\, and the materials to keep creating and\nexperimenting. \nDetails\nDuration total: 6 hours (2 days)\nLanguages: English and Spanish\nLevel: No previous knowledge required\nNumber of participants: min. 5\, max. 8\nPrice: $80 (includes materials fee)\nMaterials included in KIT: Sol cushion\, Sol pattern\, needle\, thread\, and instruction\nbooklet\nDates: Monday\, April 23rd from 6-9pm / Tuesday\, April 24th 6-9pm \nAbout Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda\nZaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda is a fiber artist whose work serves as a hands-on\nmanifesto of the symbiotic relationship we can have with our surroundings.
