Description

This course provides an introduction to the textile processes and techniques associated with dyed and printed textiles and explores these as a means of expressing ideas. Surface design incorporates various techniques including dyeing, block-printing, screen printing, devori, discharge, Shibori and wax-resist, which are used in contemporary art and design practice and introduced in this course. Students will develop their own textile pieces using a combination of these techniques. Practical work is complimented by historical information, cultural references and contemporary textile art, craft and design practice.
