Learn how to create and combine different knots to apply in your textile projects
To achieve greater artistic expressiveness through strings and fabrics, it is essential to explore and play with the composition, and with its results. The well-known textile artist Belen Senra —who has already exhibited her work in New York, Miami, Madrid or Los Angeles— reveals that you don't have to settle for basic shapes, but you also have to experiment with different supports and techniques.
In addition to being an opportunity to disconnect from daily stress, in this course you will be able to reconnect with an old art that will provide you with a wide repertoire of techniques and the compilation of a large library of references for infinite projects and applications: tapestries, accessories, fashion, architecture or product.
If you want to deepen the art of macramé, you can expand your knowledge with other courses by Belén Senra: Introduction to macramé: creation of a decorative tapestry and Design of macramé accessories .

A course by Belen Senra
Although Belén Senra started working in large multinationals as an interior designer, she currently travels the world as a nomadic textile artist, learning all kinds of artisan techniques of textile decoration. These trips help her get inspired and create new collections based on the culture and tradition of the places she visits.
He has founded his own brand, RanRan Design, which focuses on the creation of textile decorations mixing the traditional and the contemporary, having the opportunity to work on projects for both private residences and hotel and restaurant facilities, among which are the Novu Hotel Robert de Niro or the Aguas de Ibiza spa, among many others.
