    Wecandoo - Meet Rosa

    Meet Rosa

    Weaver

    Rosa is an Amsterdam based - while often traveling & working- artist, specialised in textiles. Installations and performative aspects also appear in her work, regularly in collaboration with others. 

    Fascinated by societies which live collectively and in harmony with nature, Rosa researches two huge topics: how to live and work together. By working site specific and using weaving as main medium and as metaphor for creating connections; her practise intertwines art, craft, research and anthropology. 

    She weaves with local materials and dye wool with plants, food leftovers, spices and earth. Sometimes, she invites inhabitants to participate in the process of creating: resulting in a new collective language which conceals our exchange of gestures, knowledge and ideas.

    I enjoyed the one on one workshop with Rosa immensely. She is a friendly and natural teacher - calm, talented, informative and welcoming. I came away with a complete cushion cover, made from scratch in one day. It felt like a real accomplishment and I'm so happy with both the details and overall finished product. Weaving on her studio loom is relaxing and a great way to focus your energy and learn a new skill. I'd highly recommend this workshop and I plan to do more weaving with Rosa.
