043.. ZORA VERONA

I live in Upper Yarra Valley, Warburton

My studio is as much outside as it is inside.
Utilising all natural fibres, my studio ‘storage cupboards’ extend endlessly outward, through the garden and surrounding bush.
​Inside and out, every spare wall has become a celebration of bundled and drying natural fibres just waiting for the inspiration to become nest sculptures.

Can't live without...
inspiring vista that tempts the imagination to believe, if arms were stretched wide enough, they could become wings to soar.
The sound and sight of birds, singing and dancing, and building their nests too, directly within view.
Flora, fauna and found objects.
A rambling garden and native bushland, an endless source of inspiration and natural fibres for my sculptures.
A block of beeswax and a No 14 Chenille needle.
More windows than walls, to welcome the outdoors in and abundant natural light to help eyes that unexpectedly have grown old, especially when threading needles with gossamer strands of horse hair for stitching!

A studio where the outside merges with the inside is truly a dream location. And what a view. A beautiful studio which I hope to visit one day. Those giant nests are fabulous.

Thank you for the lovely comment Irene. Although a far way to ‘fly’ for you, if not for the Open Studios dates, 26 &27 March 2022, I do hope to welcome you one day when you next find yourself in the Yarra Valley!

Thank you for your lovely and empathetic comment Sharron. Thank goodness the view large and bright enough, even for failing eyes! Look forward to sharing more insights from my studio space and view on my socials (Instagram and Facebook) as well as in person for my upcoming Yarra Valley Open Studio days on 26 & 27 March 2022. Hope to welcome you in the virtual or real world one day!

You clearly have the soul of a poet, as well as a creative mind and intellect. Thank you for sharing your wonderful space.

Thank you for your kind and generous compliments Nancy. They are treasured. Nature is the most inspiring of muses. I attempt to craft an engaging story with my social posts on birds nests and my inspirations each week, from the poetic to the creative, so do please follow along as would be lovely to continue to connect and share more of the wonders of our nature world with you.

    Studio spaces

    Over the next few months there will be an email come into your box on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings.
    It will be an artist’s studio.. a sanctuary for a creative.. with a short comment from the artist and things that they could not live without.
    Links will lead you to the workshop page where these creatives will teach for
    Fibre Arts Australia or to their social media links.

    Another initiative to keep us in touch from the Fibre Arts Team.
    ​
