Featured Image

 

Workshop for the intricate braiding of paper combined with beautiful designs to make colourful one-of-a-kind creations.

Rike Lensing leads this jewellery masterclass where attendees will learn the intricacies of 3D paper jewellery. In the event attendees will create a piece of jewellery and learn folding and braiding techniques.

 

Advanced booking is required, tickets cost €30 and are available here.

 

A graduate of Crawford College of Art & Design, Rike Lenzing has worked as an artist, designer and maker for 40 years. Rike loves working with paper as it makes for a spontaneous, creative process. It is versatile and sustainable, feeling light and warm on the skin. Her pieces transform hand cut 2D paper strips into robust but weightless 3D paper structures, by using repetitive folding and braiding techniques.

This masterclass will take participants through the basics of jewellery design, introducing folding techniques, braiding styles and colour combinations.

No experience necessary. All materials provided.
