The workshops are open to all who are curious about design, in Nicole’s experimental textile workshops, she views the students, whether adults or children as an extension to her practice. This is a reciprocal process, exchanging ideas, materials and collaborations. The aim is to challenge personal creativity, develop confidence and to simply have fun in the studio. In the workshops Nicole will build on creating individual responses to personal projects, or to a brief that can be set.
