Bricolage Talk

The Art Workers’ Guild is a body of more than 400 artists, craftspeople and architects working at the highest levels of excellence in their professions. Founded in 1884 by young architects and designers, its principle of ‘learning by doing’ has spread through arts education and has had a worldwide influence. A respect for quality, for craftsmanship, for the work of the hand, and a recognition of the healing, humane value of craftsmanship still characterises the Guild.

<p>Twelve makers were given the challenge of making marionettes using a selection of odd bits including children’s wooden building blocks, skittles and used playing cards.</p><p>Using just simple joining techniques, this was an experiment in designing composite forms, with an awareness of weight and balance through strings. The results will be on display in the hall, but here is a chance to find out about the process of exploration and to see these experimental marionettes in action.</p>
