Cindy Wood, the Weaver Diva behind Twig Designs on Tamborine Mountain, is an accomplished fibre artist whose work pays homage to the natural world. Specialising in Basketry, Cindy weaves meticulously foraged natural fibres into sculptural forms that celebrate the textures, colours and stories found in her explorations of beaches, rainforests, paddocks and her own flourishing garden. Deeply inspired by the ancient traditions of basket making, Cindy’s practice embraces both sustainability and seasonality. Her pieces evolve in harmony with the landscape, honouring the fibres and materials available throughout the seasons. Working from her tranquil outdoor garden studio, Cindy forages locally and while travelling, continually adding unique, natural treasures to her creative palette. Recently, Cindy has expanded her artistic journey to include bronze elements, seamlessly integrating these enduring materials with her organic forms. This progression into bronze sculpture brings a new layer of depth and permanence to her work, allowing her to preserve the delicate textures and movements of natural fibres in a lasting medium. Cindy regularly shares her knowledge and passion through Basket Weaving Workshops where participants are invited to reconnect with nature, explore traditional techniques and create their own meaningful pieces. Her commissioned works are personal and collaborative, weaving dreams, stories, and heartfelt connections into every creation. Cindy’s sculptural works invite viewers to slow down, observe and reconnect with the quiet beauty of the natural world, now enhanced through her innovative use of bronze alongside her signature fibre art.
