Mending with Intention: Workshop with Zac Banik
Join artist Zac Banik for a lesson in visible mending techniques (including darning, patching, and felting) accompanied by study and discussion of the spiritual potential of brokenness, how to wear scars with purpose, and what it means to repair the world. Visible mending is a philosophy of repair that makes beauty from rips and tears, rebuilding a garment with creative and new qualities rather than attempting to hide its imperfections. While you repair your own clothes, you can take the opportunity to imagine how a similar technique can be applied to your own lives, communities, and the world at large. Please bring a damaged garment that needs repair. Tools and materials will be provided.
