Students will focus on three methods used by practitioners of the traditional Japanese tie-dyeing technique in this 3-day workshop taught by Ana Lisa Hedstrom.
Fri.-Sun. Oct. 28-30, 2022, 9am-4pm
Shibori resist dyeing is exciting and effective for creating fabric for clothing and art textiles.
Students will focus on three techniques to create modular pieces and lengths of silk and cellulose: ARASHI pole wrapping: KATANO sewing machine resist where the stitching acts like a clamp: and ITAJIME folding and clamping with blocks. We will learn the traditional concepts and explore ways to push the boundaries.
There will be an indigo vat and we will paint with thickened fiber reactive dye as well as immersion vats. Students will learn to resist scour silk organza to create areas of stiff and lustrous pattern.
Designing with our Shibori textiles will be an integral part of classroom discussion
Ana Lisa will bring beautiful examples of traditional Japanese Shibori, examples of her own work, and books and catalogs to educate and inspire.
Non-members $460 / Members $450
