Creel, Frame Basket and Bunch of Willow

This composition of two baskets plus the natural material with which they're made sums up for Brendan Farren a basketmaker's journey. From growing and gathering the willow from nature, through to its preparation and the formation of two iconic baskets; the squareness of a creel, made upside down, woven with 18 rods at once, to the simplicity of a rounded frame basket, 2 hoops, and one weaving rod at a time.
