  • Color, and the Tactile Joy of Finger Painting
    Tapestry Topics A Quarterly Review of Tapestry Art Today www.americantapestryalliance.org Summer 2010 Vol 36 No 2 On Designing for Tapestry by Thoma Ewen Within each of us is a deep well of creativity. It is linked to spirit and to the life force, and it is essential to well being. I often send my students outside to look at the natural environment. To me, everything begins with what you see as being beautiful. I am an artist because I wish to partici- pate in beauty. When I design and weave, my desire is to communicate the beauty that I feel. Designing tapestry begins with something I see in the natural environment that moves me. It's as if I take a visual impression of the feeling that a particular scene evokes in me. This transforms into a visual image in my mind. I give this process time and stay in touch with the feeling all the way through the designing and weaving process. I work with the visual image, exploring the feeling through drawings. I often do many Thoma Ewen at her loom. pastel drawings as studies before selecting the one I will weave into tapestry. I use the drawing that best captures the feeling. In my recent series Aurora Borealis Behind the Trees there are 10 drawings and four tapestries. Discover and enjoy your own creativity by playing with drawing or painting materials. If you feel inadequate, blocked, or stuck, watch young children finger paint. Try it yourself, as it is very freeing to lose yourself in the pure color, and the tactile joy of finger painting.

These myths shed light on the power of fabric to communicate universal themes 2 across time, from 400BC to the present day. 7 Ariadne’s thread unlocked the mystery of the labyrinth; Penelope’s loyalty to her husband Odysseus was tied to her loom as she wove and unwove by day 4 1 6 and night; the Three Fates controlled the lifespan of both men and gods by spinning yarn, drawing out thread and cutting it. These narratives have stood the test of time. From these classical beginnings The Fabric of Myth a 5 will trace the symbolic power of such characters and the Lift themes they represent. The figure of the mortal Arachne, t transformed into a spider for challenging the goddess Athena to a weaving contest, can be seen to represent Chinese Galleries Gallery 1 Ariadne’s thread an early embodiment of the artist. She in turn has ‘tis said the Labyrinth held a path woven... gone on to inspire artists such as Louise Bourgeois with a thousand ways and Elaine Reichek. Virgil, Aeneid The imprisoned Philomela from Ovid’s Metamorphoses turns to weaving to communicate her By giving the guiding thread to Theseus, Ariadne empowers him in his dangerous journey into the labyrinth to slay the plight. This theme resonates through the embroidery minotaur and return to safety.

  • The Hunt of the Unicorn: Tapestry Copies Made for Stirling Castle, Scotland
    The Hunt of the Unicorn: Tapestry Copies Made for Stirling Castle, Scotland by Amy Beingessner A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Art History and Visual Culture Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Amy Beingessner, May, 2015 ABSTRACT THE HUNT OF THE UNICORN: TAPESTRY COPIES MADE FOR STIRLING CASTLE, SCOTLAND Amy Beingessner Advisor: University of Guelph, 2015 Professor S. A. Hickson In 2014 the West Dean Tapestry Studio in England completed a commission for Historic Scotland, an agency of the Scottish government, to reproduce the late fifteenth-century Hunt of the Unicorn tapestry series on permanent display at the Cloisters Museum in New York City. The purpose of Historic Scotland’s reproductions is to heighten the tourist’s experience of authenticity in the Renaissance apartments at Stirling Castle, Scotland. This thesis explores Historic Scotland’s decision to reproduce The Hunt of the Unicorn tapestries for the renovation of Stirling Castle’s royal apartments, and how this representation of Scottish heritage and identity challenges traditional boundaries of authorship and authenticity. Applying the concept of the simulacrum, specifically through the writing of Jean Baudrillard and Gilles Deleuze, the Unicorn tapestries are analyzed based on the contexts and authorities that inform perceptions of their status as either copies or originals, revealing authenticity to be a perceived construction. iii Table of Contents Page List of Illustrations ......................................................................................................

Ross Center for Tapestry Studies, www.tapestrycenter.org All rights reserved “THE WORK O’ THE WEAVER: FIFTY YEARS IN TAPESTRY” Presented by Archie Brennan March 10, 1998 Yale Club in New York City The following is a complete transcript of the Center's first annual lecture which is also recorded on videotape as part of the Gloria F. Ross library. Introduction by Ann Lane Hedlund: I would like to welcome you all here. My name is Ann Hedlund. I’m the new director of the new Gloria F. Ross Center for Tapestry Studies. I want to welcome you to tonight's lecture, but much more than that I want to welcome you to the inaugural event for the Center for Tapestry Studies and our first collaboration with The Textile Museum of Washington DC. I know many of you are members of The Textile Museum and we especially welcome you here, also. I do want to apologize a bit for the space problems that we have had, as your responses came in and the numbers went up and up, we moved from quite an intimate library setting to this sort of baronial room here. I think one that is sort of fit for tapestries. We should have lined it with tapestries for you this evening. There is no larger space here and I hope you will be able to breathe throughout the lecture and make yourselves as comfortable as possible. Following the lecture we would like to invite you upstairs to the library. It is one flight up; it is immediately above this.
