This beautiful kete image by Christchurch artist Rebecca Davies was hand carved from a lino block and then printed using her Intaglio fine art printing press. Rebecca inks each print by hand and then rolls it through the press, with the result that every print is subtly different…
How’s this for a fancy frock for a wedding, the races, or perhaps a posh picnic?
The art and science of Souly Fibre
An ad in a shop window was the first step in a new creative direction for Colleen Jamieson. In her hilltop cottage in the rural Northland district of Kaipara, she now weaves flax into beautiful kete, household items and traditional clothing, a selection of which can be found in her Felt shop, Souly Fibre.
