Rainwater Papermaking with Lesa Hepburn

There is pleasure and pain in rainfall, but we can enjoy collecting rainwater to make special paper!

Learn how to create paper using only rainwater and wastepaper with Lesa Hepburn. Lesa will demonstrate the technique of pulling an A5 sheet of paper and will guide you on how to find these ingredients at home.

Lesa works in handmade paper and botanical fibres focusing on sustainable arts practice, working with available natural materials, recycled materials, and low impact processes. She currently lives in Ōtepoti, and is focused on learning about local plants, fibres and her environment.
