NEW! The Fibre Design Book for Australia and New Zealand. Deadline for entries is 1st September 2010 in hopes the book can be published by December of this year. Valerie Kirk is coordinating a judging team which also includes Annie Trevillian and Tony Dyer from Australia, and Christine Keller from New Zealand. Judging is based on digital images which must be of the highest quality – full details from TAFTA’s website: http://www.tafta.org.au/ (click on Fibre Design book). Garry Benson, the book’s designer, will review all images for quality and, if there is sufficient time, people may resubmit images according to his suggestions, if image quality needs improving. So it’s wise to lodge entries early! Up to three works can be submitted, with nine categories specified. This is a unique opportunity – you’ve shown the dedication to make your work, now resolve to apply to be in this high quality publication, being published by TAFTA (The Australian Forum for Textile Arts, Ltd), a not-for-profit arts organization that promotes the textile arts. TAFTA is working together with Dragon Design (Garry Benson and Jayne Stacey) on this project, first proposed by Dragon Design.
Categories: 3-Dimensional work; Basketry; Needlework; Paper & Felt; Surface Design; Quilting; 2-Dimensional work; Tapestry; Wearables.
