I am a handweaver who works with wool. . I love wool because to me it says New Zealand. Wool is a natural fibre with such great qualities – warm, breathable, suppresses odour and is biodegradable creating no rubbish at the end of its life. It can be woven chunky or elastic or fine depending on the project and sometimes it’s neat to create something that should be fine out of chunky or vice versa. Rules can be broken. I have 3 looms that I use to create interesting natural wool fabrics. My work is what you call slow fashion.

Arts in the MediaJoshua Prendeville: Building an Audience on Boosted
Accomplished Filmmaker Joshua Prendeville first came to Boosted in order to help with funding his 2024 Film 'The House Within,' documenting the life and work of 2026 Katherine Mansfield Menton Fellow Dame Fiona Kidman. Since then he has gone on to direct an adaptation of Katherine Mansfield's 'The Garden Party,' that was also funded in part through Boosted. His latest project is 'Earthly Shadows,' a short film adaptation of the award-winning story by Fiona Kidman. For Joshua, Boosted has become a more than just a funding avenue, it's a way to bring his audience onboard at the start of a film's journey and bring that crowd along with him. Joshua was kind enough to share with us his experiences and lessons learned from growing his audience on Boosted, and how he aims to bring them on a journey with his latest project, 'Earthly Shadows.'18 May 2026 -
