Vessels

Category: <span>Vessels</span>

Vessels can be made from fiber, clay and even woven with using unique reeds and metals. Our artists use their imagination making hollow containers that can be both functional, as well as beautiful.

From baskets to metal sculptures, to fabric bowls and containers all beaded and embellished, you’ll be inspired by the creative projects shared by these makers.

Dorothy McGuinness has mastered the art of diagonal twill basket weaving, Lanny Berger developed a method of creating sculptural forms with metal mesh, and Camerson Mason has mastered creating 3-D pieces and vessels with fibers.
