Wacky Willow(Willow Sculpture/relief Project)
Willow is a fantastic material to work with. It can be used in loads of different ways to create really interesting sculptures and reliefs. It can also be used with a combination of other materials such as fabrics, papers and wire producing really interesting effects.
Through out this project young people will have the opportunity to create their own willow sculpture and they will be taught a variety of skills and techniques to help them such as joining, lashing and weaving. They will also gain an understanding of how willow is grown and prepared.
As always Wild Goose workshops are designed to anable young people to learn and develop new skills whilst having as much fun as possible in a safe and friendly environment. As well as the main activity young people will take part in a number of games and activities. Some of which will help them in their main activity others are just for fun.
