At the opening of "Tension", the Open Studios Exhibition at Burrinja earlier in the month, Joni's Nuno felt wrap caught my attention.

I looked forward to visiting the artist's studio. Joni works in felt. She says Nuno felt is ideal for the temperate Australian climate. Colours that reflect the Australian landscape inspire her. Joni sources natural dyes from her own backyard.
