Raksura Art Project
Added 2019-03-04 17:41:42 +0000 UTCThis is so cool! I saw this on File770 yesterday. Someone is doing a community art project for the WorldCon in Dublin, making a knitted diorama of the platform of a mountain-tree.

If you’re coming to Dublin to join in the fun and are interested in creating things with needle and thread, this is your chance to be an active part in a community art project.
Martha Wells’ “Books of the Raksura”-Series was nominated for a Best Series Hugo in 2018. One of the things that drew me into the series was the world-building – a colony living in a giant mountain tree that’s studded with platforms all around that are used by the inhabitants for all kinds of different things – hunting, gardening, fishing, outlooks for the guards … a whole ecosystem – so how might that actually look like?
I cannot wait to see this!
