Description

This course introduces students to contemporary art textile practice, extending their understanding of the scope and possibilities of textiles. Contemporary, traditional, cultural and historical textiles are referenced and examined to develop knowledge and a critical awareness of textile processes and ways of integrating cloth, fabric, fibre and materials into the contemporary context. Textiles 1A provides the context to develop individual approaches with research, experimentation and investigation through lectures, demonstrations and conceptually based projects.
