christiane gunzi basketry
East Sussex
Based in East Sussex, I handcraft traditional and contemporary basketry using
willow, rush and other natural materials. My training was at the City Lit in
London (2011-2013), and I have a City & Guilds Level 3 Certificate in Creative
Techniques in Textiles (Basketry). Influenced by the patterns, textures and
tones that occur in nature, I enjoy exploring non-functional basketry with
natural materials foraged near my home. As well as making baskets, I run
basketweaving classes for beginners and improvers. I love passing on my passion
for this ancient craft. My work has been exhibited in London, Surrey and Sussex.
