WOVEN FROM THE HEART with Susan Scollay

The concluding session will focus on carpet weaving in the nomadic traditions of Central Asia, Iran and Turkey. A highlight will be a series of photographs taken by the late Josephine Powell, who spent thirty years documenting the weaving and daily lives of eastern Anatolian nomads.

Susan Scollay is an internationally recognised specialist in textiles and carpets and Islamic art and culture. She is contributing editor of HALI, the London-based journal of carpet, textile and Islamic art, and is currently completing a PhD at La Trobe University, Melbourne
