Bhakti Ziek, a former college professor of weaving and textile design, is a studio artist living in New Mexico. She has co-written a book on backstrap weaving, and wrote The Woven Pixel: Designing for Jacquard and Dobby Looms Using Photoshop with Alice Schlein.
Ziek will discuss her work and why she asks “what is the best tool to accomplish this idea” before turning to her looms, which include a TC-1, two shaft looms, an inkle loom and small tapestry loom.
