Synopsis

Weaving Tapestry in Rural Ireland enlarges the perception of weaving in Ireland beyond tweed, presenting the age-old skills of wool production (shearing, spinning and naturally dyeing yarn) as a vital form of artistic expression today. Juxtaposed against full colour images of the tapestries are award-winning photographer Laurence Bolands black and white portraits of the artists at work in a haunting landscape.
