Fig and Ginger Handwoven Backpack
Fig and Ginger Handwoven Backpack
“This is how you keep a traditional craft vibrant, dynamic, and relevant in a world of mass production. Each step is meditative and thoughtful; each finished piece a visual reflection of time, care and a love of place. What happens next, as the waxed canvas is marked by new travels and the pack relaxes into the form of it's new caretaker, inspires my imagination and the desire to create more.”
