AT A GLANCE
Who: Camille Laddawan, Melbourne-based beading artist. What she does: Translates ideas and stories into beautiful beaded tapestries. Where: Melbourne, Vic. Why she does it: “I enjoy the simple premise of beading: all you need is a loom, needle, thread and beads. But within that framework, there is flexibility, freedom and creativity,” says Camille.
