It's been a blast recording the 2nd Season of @thecapitalofcraft This week is our 30th episode! I've talked with potters, printers, professors, stitchers, knitters, basket makers, jewellers, farmers, woodcarvers, surfboard makers, sculptors, curators, weavers, blacksmiths, leatherworkers and silversmiths. It's been an absolute honour.
In the final episode of Season 2, I chat with the very lovely #weaver, James Donald AKA @pickoneweave
James started PickOne in 1997 after training at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design @dundeeuni in #Dundee. He now exhibits, teaches & curates from PickOne studio @coburghouse in Leith, Edinburgh.
James talks about his journey into textiles and his early life in Brechin in Angus. As well as having access to countryside and freedom, it also established his love of music and dancing at the iconic nightclub, Flicks.
