Happy New Year's Eve! I just wanted to sign off for this year with a HUGE thank you to all! I have been extremely blessed this year with so many amazing opportunities and although its been at times chaotic with many lessons learned (as it should be) and yet again way too many studio moves, I have also had the opportunity to visit breathtaking places and meet extremely giving, creative and very talented people with not one but two trips abroad! <b><span style="font-size: large;">My goals for 2014 ---- absolutely without a doubt more travel abroad, </span></b><span style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">collaborations with new & old friends and best of all moving back home to Kentucky (a long awaited desire). </span></b>And although I might not be able to forsee the exact future in this long thought out decision, I will be near family and friends who support and encourage my passion for making, sharing, teaching and of course working in my studio. </span><br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It has almost been one full week since my return from Amsterdam and although part of me is still wandering the streets and canals of the beautiful city, I am glad to be home again. I have posted many more pictures on my facebook page but have also saved a few good pictures to share for the blog and to write briefly on my personal experience.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
While in Amsterdam I had the pleasure of staying with a wonderful and sharing couple, Gon Homburg and her husband Hans. Gon is a lacemaker and teacher <a href="http://www.kloskant.com/">http://www.kloskant.com/</a> and her husband Hans is actually close to retiring as an engineer. Hans is also a craftsman/metalsmith, exquisite self-taught engraver and author/illustrator of a few books, including an engraving manual. Having never meet before and only knowing Gon was a lacemaker through a mutual friend in Spain, I had no idea beforehand I would be staying with such amazing people...it was a beautiful surprise to say the least. To participate in SIERAAD for me was a positive and successful experience with the opportunity to meet people, jewelers, artists, and colleagues in the field from the U.S., Amsterdam, Italy, Spain, london, Australia (list goes on) and to create professional contacts that I hope to continue along with new friendships. Excited to have the opportunity to share and sell my work, I was even more thrilled to have scored a very special trade from a long respected maker in the U.S. (see pics below) The Monday after the fair I was asked to give a small presentation on my work to a local lace group that Gon teaches and mentors and then I was off to spend a week in Amsterdam walking the city and making it a goal to see as many museums, galleries, narrow brick lane streets, bridge covered canals, buildings and art as much as possible while eating gluten free stroopwaffels (thank you Albert Hejin). The last Saturday before leaving Amsterdam I was invited to take part in the North Region of Holland's annual bobbin-lace workshop with the bobbin lace maker Solveigh Beekum. It was a perfect ending to a great experience. I hope you enjoy the images. Thank you so much Gon & Hans Homburg, SIERAAD & Astrid Berens and I hope to see you once again next year!</div>

<span class="userContent"><b>Old is New Again: Bobbin Lace Technique in Contemporary Art In conjunction with Gems of European Lace, ca. 1600-1920</b>, an exhibition in the Ratti Gallery, artist and weaver Lauran Sundin will speak about the application of bobbin lace techniques to contemporary art. Modern art running the gamut from large three dimensional fiber works produced in Czechoslovakia to the site specific light sculpture of electroluminescent wire recently installed at Kensington Palace are so contrary to conventional associations with the word "lace" that most people would not realize that are made using the same techniques. Examples of historical lace will be made available for examination in the Ratti Textile Center and Sundin will explain the three simple techniques drawn from weaving and braiding that form the basis of bobbin lace and identify them in the museum pieces. Using slides, Sundin will present images of contemporary work in fiber and other filaments for comparison to the pieces from the Museum's collection.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 12px;">Extremely excited to have a spot in the Society of North American Goldsmiths 2nd Annual Trunk Show & Sale at the 2012 conference in Arizona May 23rd-26th. Last year (Seattle) was amazing with both emerging & professional makers selling their work in a very intimate, bare (no prop or booths) atmosphere. I certainly left the trunk sale last year with a huge desire to try & take part in the the next one ... not to mention how incredibly inspiring it was to see all the amazing work. </span></span></div>

<div>Well I was fortunate to have been able to attend the SNAG conference this year thanks to a small grant from Idaho Commission on the Arts (whoo-hoo) & it was AMAZING considering i was unable to attend last years conference. Although a wonderful experience, I unfortunately had two slightly problematic things happen while there. The first was a terrible case of laryngitis & second my camera (old) decided to call it quites. I must say it is funny thinking about losing my voice after the fact, considering it was a conference & I was trying to communicate with friends and colleagues in any way possible (sign language) while also trying hard not to scare them. My voice literally sounded like i had been downing bottles of Jack, smoking cartons of cigarettes while doing karaoke to Bjork every night. Besides these two little hang-ups, I was so grateful to have been able to attend the conference. The exhibitions & lectures have been keeping my brain abuzz for over the last week & half, not to mention all the people I was finally able to meet & others who I had not seen in a few years. My favorite exhibitions were Geography (AJF) & Ring a Day 2010. The Trunk Show was also an exciting addition to the conference experience--& again very excited for this in the future (my only regret was not being able to purchase something sweet) ---Oh & of course one of the best things- i was able to have lunch with my dear friend Kyle Patnaude who I haven't seen since the sabbatical replacement I did in New York two years ago. Kyle is making some very interesting work in his second year in grad school at Madison & as soon as he shares photos of his work I certainly intend to post--hint hint Kyle!</div>Alicia Jane Boswellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03233644219430560708noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276544019838281977.post-82229229066712980752011-05-07T10:30:00.000-07:002012-01-21T17:04:57.535-08:00Boise State University student work for SNAG 2011 conference in Seattle<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/ydYRCfmpLnM?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>Awesome student work from BSU!
