Dyed cane and wire
T.175-1993
Maggie Henton trained as a textile artist. Her interest in
the structure of weaving and the creation of three-
dimensional forms led her into working with cane and
making baskets. She found she could dye and weave the
cane as easily as a textile fibre and often mixes found
materials such as wire and plastic with it. This weave
pattern was developed from the study of South-East
Asian weaving techniques. |
