Shane Waltener will be working on a site-specific installation live in the Dovecot building, using wool from the studios along with weaving and knitting techniques to create a unique piece/performance on the stair-well – this piece will be filmed to be added to the growing IC YouTube channel available online – to reserve a place please email info@innovativecraft.co.uk
