Really excited to visit Marguerite Stephens magical tapestry studio in Diepsloot, Johannesburg to witness the behind the scenes action and also plan some future projects together.
The Stephens Tapestry Studio employs a team of local weavers, spinners, and dyers who work on vertical looms using mohair spun in Swaziland.
For more information on the wonderful work that the studio does, watch this great video featuring Marguerite, in which she discusses translating the artist William Kentridge’s original concepts into intricate, large-scale tapestries.
