Members are invited to take part in the annual DACA Photo Challenge.
This was introduced in 2019 to encourage original design in any medium. Members were invited to submit a piece of work inspired by a photograph of an eroded stone wall. Work submitted included felting, weaving and pen & ink drawing – some using the patterns of the wall, some taking inspiration from the textures and some from the colours.
The photo challenge will continue in 2021, using a the same image as published prior to the cancellation of our 2020 exhibition. This challenge is open to members only. The photo was published in the November 2019 newsletter and a larger copy is available on request – contact the Association Secretary
