HOW TO BLOOM IN SEASON with textile artist Victoria Van Der Laan
from SEAMSIDE: Exploring the Inner Work of Textiles · host Zak Foster
I first met Victoria Van Der Laan in Catskill, New York, standing in the gravel driveway in front of the HUDDLE House where me and twenty-five other NOOKers where spending a long weekend quilting together. I had assumed she’d just whisk me away for a quick coffee and pastry while I was in town and that would be it, but Victoria ended up coming back to the house for a trunk show and then spent all afternoon with us just sewing and sharing stories. Noticing the warmth and generosity she moves through the world with, I knew we’d become fast friends.In this SEAMSIDE conversation, Victoria and I talk about: ① how the demands of life can pressurize our creative practice ② why her colors seem to vibrate ③ how to expand and contract as the season allows→ Get your free trial to the QUILTY NOOK → See images and more from this episode with SEAMSIDE EXTRAS → Learn more about Zak → Support Victoria through Buy Me A Coffee
