to 14 Dec

Ghost Net Flaskets

Weave your own ghost net bottle holder inspired by European Wicker Demijohns ( a glass vessel enclosed in wickerwork). Learn to prepare the fibres and weave around a recycled bottle using repurposed rope from ghost nets to make a hanging plant holder or water bottle carrier. Ghost nets are abandoned, lost, or discarded fishing nets made from synthetic fibers that are left drifting in the world's oceans.Ghost nets entangle and kill marine creatures like sea turtles, dolphins, fish, sharks and seabirds. Aly will provide a variety of colourful ghost net ropes collected with rangers on remote beaches in Arnhem Land. Recycled bottles are also provided or bring your own water or glass bottle to weave around. This class is suitable for beginners but also an opportunity for those with experience to extend their practice.
