The book also encourages sustainable art practices by working with recycled materials and plant fibres.--Australian Design Centre"This book is an exploration of modern basketry, a craft that has transcended from craft to art form. Its pages guide the reader through a visual journey of the background and works of fourteen Australian basketry artists. It is both a celebration of the creative voice each with basketry at its core. Stunningly designed and illustrated, these pages serve as a compendium of beautiful makers, guiding the reader on a range of basketry techniques; some with an interesting twist on the traditional.
