AUDIOBOOK
About
The Untamed Thread is the story of Fleur Wood's journey from corporate world to creative life, woven with generous doses of the practical ways you can bring more creativity into your own life.
Taking cues from the natural world, we wander through Fleur's contemporary fibre art practice to encourage and support you to find your own creative path.
This inspiring creative guide invites you into Fleur's art studio in rural Aotearoa New Zealand. Fleur's practice is as untamed as the New Zealand landscape that inspires her; free of rules, guided by intuition and joy in the process. Together we explore colour, texture, flora, textiles and stitch alongside the magic moments, happy accidents, perfect coincidences and ridiculous randomness of the creative process.
Embracing stitch's slow, contemplative nature, we can reconnect our creative spirits to reimagine embroidery as a contemporary tool for mark-making. This audio book wraps you in a warm blanket of nostalgia, grounds you in nature and inspires your senses to allow you to travel down your own creative path gathering all the precious little details meant for you along the way.
"Creating this audio book is a beautiful opportunity to weave my back story into the fold. Often people share what they know but not how they got there – I feel there's such value in helping others unlock their unique creative process.
Sharing the insights I've gained that allow me to live and enjoy a creative life is part of my purpose. I truly believe that the more we allow ourselves to be connected to our creativity, the better it is for our own well-being. Creativity is oxygen for our souls.
This audio book is for art lovers, stitch lovers, colour lovers, nature lovers, textile lovers, joy seekers, creatives and collectors. Anyone who would like to bring more creativity into their life inspired by nature and untamed threads."
