Wrapping

Wrapping

under..over..around...through...left...right...bottom...top

The textile designer will choose a hard medium to be covered: maybe a board, some card, a stick, an old cotton real..the possibilities are endless. Then with their choosen medium normally threads or wools can be used to create a pattern across the surface. This allows the designer to get an idea of colour and proportion. But Budding Textile designers such as RCA ex Chelsea student have progressed this technique into an art form and have produced large scale pieces which are a delight for any onlooker.


My attempts...

Precision.
Box covered then cut

Material base layer



Different directions



Cutting into




Plain colour study
