THE NECKTIE QUILT: PART 1 with Amanda Nadig SEAMSIDE: Exploring the Inner Work of Textiles

- Crafts
In this two-part mini-documentary: Amanda Nadig and I take you behind the scenes of our latest collaboration. You’ll get to accompany us on the creative process behind a quilt built out of a client's retired collection of high-end silk neckties.
I'd recently bought a small handheld recorder, and we thought it'd be fun to give you a play-by-play as we're making this quilt, encountering creactive obstacles when things aren't turning out the way we'd hoped, and how we navigate through this particular project together.
Along the way we share some helpful tips and meaningful reflections designed to get you thinking about how you may want to incorporate artistic collaboration in your own creative practice.
In this conversation, we discuss:
① the curious parameters of this project
② things we learned about working with silk
③ how we’ve developed a special language working together
