Teresa: "My practice lies in the tradition of wood-carving. My work is about life – a response, an exploration, an inquiry. I work with local wood and I am interested in how people engage with the vegetation that grows around them. Cultures and their traditions inspire me the most. I believe that traditions in making as well as traditions grounded in contemplation or other wisdom practices are the elements that hold people together and weave cultures into a bigger tapestry. Now living in Europe, with family in West-Africa and having studied in Japan, these are the threads that I see are most visible in my work."
Teresa gives various woodcarving workshops and courses. Learn to carve bowls or sculptures. During the courses you will learn the basics of woodcarving with gouges: how to remove material to create concave or convex shapes. You will learn the relationship between wood and the use of specific tools. Based on experience, capabilities and ambitions, Teresa will support you in finding a design and translating it into the wood.
