Panel on the Convergence of Craft & Industry
with Claudy Jongstra and Kathryn Walter
 
This presentation brings together two designers who approach incorporating felt into architectural use from different starting places but with beautiful and unexpected endings. Both designers collaborate with architects to create decorative and functional felt interventions. Kathryn Walter works primarily with industrial felt while Claudy Jongstra uses raw wool and natural dyes. See examples of their work and learn about their process. Moderated by curator, Susan Brown.
Deeply Felt
 
With tongue in cheek Kathryn Walter takes you on a tour through the many ways that she uses felt in her home. Part “How-To,” part Public Service Announcement, this playful romp through the material culture of felt walks the line between practicality and farce.
