In 2012 Ema was an invited artist-in-residence at Australian Tapestry Workshop during which time she included tapestry weaving in her multi-disciplinary works. This resulted in her receiving the prestigious first prize at the Kate Derum Awards for Small Tapestries in 2017 and tapestry becoming a central part of her art practice.  ​

Recently Ema's interview and practice were featured on Hi-Fructose Magazine (volume 64), Beautiful Bizarre Magazine (issue 38), Vogue Australia (issue June 2022) and Frankie Magazine (issue 107).

tapestry weaving with creative and experimental techniques

Participants will learn a variety of tapestry weaving techniques including colour mixing, gradations, soumak, tufting, wrapping and shaped tapestry using the weft faced French Gobelin technique.

The first two days of the course will focus on these techniques to weave a sample piece. Then over the following three days participants will create a small tapestry of their own design.

​This is an advanced weaving workshop; basic weaving experience is essential.
