Contemporary Tapestry Artist Jo Barker on inspiration, developing ideas, and her idiosyncratic process


Listen Later

Jo produces absolutely stunning work that just sings with colour and movement, capturing a fascinating process that combines intuitive gestures, digital editing, and labour-intensive weaving.
In this episode we get stuck into her process and discuss:

generating and exploring ideas
