Millefleur

Saturday Sept. 28, 2013 , All Day
A group of people lean over a large table, tracing and cutting out various shapes of leaves from paper in a well-lit, industrial indoor space.

As part of Assistant Professor Igor Siddqui's larger body of work, Millefleur explores the tradition of floral patterns in applied arts and their re-emergence in the age of digital craft.  Professor Siddiqui discussed his creative process leading to the concept for the piece, and participants contributed to its design through hands-on making. The completed installation reflects the desires, dynamics, and interaction among the workshop participants.
