Before we start to even attempt a textile structure in the form of knit,weave,braid or macrame etc… we look for, and interpret,three dimensional influences.
The lead into this project was research into manmade constructions.
Once recorded the ideas took shape and over one or two days,unique forms emerged as individual students produced their own 3D referencing.
Surfaces,textures,structure,materials and form went head to head in the race for unique starting points.
This week the technical workshops begin with this information as the beginning of the beginning!
