Banyule Artist Studios weekend

Thanks to all the generous artists and community members who helped make our 2024 program a raging success!

Program re-opens in October 2025

Claire Weigall

Textile based sculpture

3 Otterington Grove, Ivanhoe East (Zone 3)

Claire’s sculptures intertwine crochet with natural elements like sticks, leaves and shells, celebrating nature’s small details. Her work is testament to the meditative process of crochet. Her studio, nestled in a converted basement, serves as a family hub. Here, her children, aged 16, 13 and 11, are encouraged to explore their artistic expression.

Studio visitors will encounter an array of art in diverse mediums from painting to sculpture, showcasing both Claire’s and her children’s pieces. It’s a place of shared creativity, where Claire’s practice flourishes alongside the lively inventions of her young artists.
