A course by Idoia Cuesta
Idoia lives and works in a rural environment, surrounded by nature that not only inspires her, but also provides her with the means to create 100% sustainable pieces. She grows her own rattan to use in her projects, weaving pieces similar to the way storks weave their nests.
