For many years, textile art has been developed dramatically in terms of process-methods, translating ideas and creative expression. In Thailand, textile art seems to refer only to ethnic textiles, it does not include contemporary textile art practice. However, the significance of a material beyond the surface of the physical textile art object it constructs has hardly been described. Thailand still lacks knowledge on the development of local materials through artistic expression. This study undertakes to examine a material in textile art. The role of a material in textile art has remained unexpressed, and thus should be elucidated. The research recognizes the importance of “Eri silk”, a local material in Thailand. It has the unique fibrous properties that has an environmentally friendly production process and aesthetics. Eri silk has high potential to be an important material to carry on the art of Thai textile. Eri silk is a new kind of silk that can be a textile material of the future. The purpose of this research is to study traditional textile knowledge and hand making skill in contemporary art practice in order to enhance new value of local material “Eri silk” through art practice and artistic expression. To create a new perspective of textile art and craft using local material “Eri silk” through art practice and artistic expression. To propose new value of Thai local material “Eri silk” integrating aesthetic knowledge of art and craft using artistic expression in textile art and craft. The outcome of this research study is the textile art and craft carpet from local material “Eri Silk” this towards the opportunity to emphasize the meaning of the quality of natural material that exists in the community. This research is a practice-based research combined with applied research. In this research, note taking, tape recording, in-depth interviews with field experts, literature reviews, research studies, photographing applied to primarily identify the concept of “Artistic Expression in Textile Art Craft”. The result of this research is to create textile art that represents the relationship between local material “Eri silk” and artistic expression through art practice, focusing on experimental knowledge of craft processes. Technical knowledge and hands-on experience lead to a deep understanding of the art of weaving. The experiments’ results were able to merge traditional processes with the textile elements, construction and concept. This sheds light on ways of enhancing the value of local material “Eri silk” in physical realization of an artist’s idea into tangible forms of meaningful artwork. Knowledge integration, artistic ability, aesthetics, philosophy, and local wisdom based on the "Circular Economy" concept, along with the environment-oriented developmental approach of the 21st-century world, fuel the growth of the “Green economy” and support sustainable development. These ideas are the answers to the development of “Eri silk” in the future, under a broad framework of national development according to the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy. Therefore, this could become a model and reference point for other communities - those who share the same values - to contribute to the propagation of craft culture and material knowledge through textile disciplines.

  • Woven Fabrics
    Fabric – Woven Fabrics WOVEN FABRICS Fabrics are made of yarns by weaving them in different combinations. It is mostly done by interlacing two sets of yarn or thread made of fibers called the warp and weft of the loom. It only stretches in the bias directions, between the warp and weft directions, unless the threads are elastic. Lengthwise stronger vertical yarns with more twist are Warp or Picks while widthwise filling yarns are termed as weft or ends. Sidewise edge of fabric is termed as Selvedge. THREE BASIC WEAVES There are three main types of weave: Plain, Twill and Satin Plain weave is a basic weave which is made when the thread is woven on one up and one down principle, some plain weave fabrics are Chambray, Chiffon, Gingham, and Organza etc. Twill weave is made when the thread is placed by varying the order of interlacing the yarns so that diagonal parallel lines are produced across the fabric. Satin Weave is a weave made when each warp yarn floats over four filling yarns and interlaces with fifth filling yarn. Plain weave Twill weave Satin weave Fabric – Weft Knit Fabrics Knitted Fabrics Knitting is the process of construction of a fabric by interlocking loops of yarn by means of hooked needles. Knitted fabric consists of horizontal rows known as courses and vertical columns of loops known as Wales. Knitted fabrics are porous having insulated air pockets giving warmth when worn. Knitted fabrics are very absorbent, wrinkle resistant and lightweight. They shrink more than woven fabrics unless shrink- proofing techniques are used.

  • A New Method for the Conservation of Ancient Colored Paintings on Ramie
    Liu et al. Herit Sci (2021) 9:13 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40494-021-00486-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A new method for the conservation of ancient colored paintings on ramie textiles Jiaojiao Liu*, Yuhu Li*, Daodao Hu, Huiping Xing, Xiaolian Chao, Jing Cao and Zhihui Jia Abstract Textiles are valuable cultural heritage items that are susceptible to several degradation processes due to their sensi- tive nature, such as the case of ancient ma colored-paintings. Therefore, it is important to take measures to protect the precious ma artifacts. Generally, ″ma″ includes ramie, hemp, fax, oil fax, kenaf, jute, and so on. In this paper, an examination and analysis of a painted ma textile were the frst step in proposing an appropriate conservation treat- ment. Standard fber and light microscopy were used to identify the fber type of the painted ma textile. Moreover, custom-made reinforcement materials and technology were introduced with the principles of compatibility, durabil- ity and reversibility. The properties of tensile strength, aging resistance and color alteration of the new material to be added were studied before and after dry heat aging, wet heat aging and UV light aging. After systematic examina- tion and evaluation of the painted ma textile and reinforcement materials, the optimal conservation treatment was established, and exhibition method was established. Our work presents a new method for the conservation of ancient Chinese painted ramie textiles that would promote the protection of these valuable artifacts. Keywords: Painted textiles, Ramie fber, Conservation methods, Reinforcement, Cultural relic Introduction Among them, painted ma textiles are characterized by Textiles in all forms are an essential part of human civi- the fexibility, draping quality, heterogeneity, and mul- lization [1].

  • Structure and Functions of Cocoons Constructed by Eri Silkworm

As a kind of wild species, E cocoons have characteristics different from those of Bombyx mori cocoons (B cocoons). E cocoons have an obvious multilayer (5–9 layers) structure with an eclosion hole at one end and several air gaps between the layers, which can be classified into three categories—cocoon coat, cocoon layer, and cocoon lining—with varying performance indexes. There is a significant secondary fracture phenomenon during the tensile process, which is attributed to the high modulus of the cocoon lining and its dense structure. Air gaps provide cocoons with distinct multistage moisture transmission processes, which form a good moisture buffer effect. Temperature change inside cocoons is evidently slower than that outside, which indicates that cocoons also have an obvious temperature damping capability. The eclosion hole does not have much effect on heat preservation of E cocoons. The high sericin content of the cocoon coat, as well as the excellent ultraviolet absorption and antimicrobial abilities of sericin, allows E cocoons to effectively prevent ultraviolet rays and microorganisms from invading pupae.

The review centers on the Mulberry Silk Moth but also other silk moths (the Eri Silk Moth and wild silk moths) are covered in detail. Considerable research has taken place in most South Asian countries, which now has to be carried out to the rearers of silk moths, who are the backbone of sericulture. Obstacles to this are mentioned. Keywords: Moth; Silk; Cocoons Because of its open cocoons, the adult eri moth emerges easily from the cocoon. One cannot harvest the more than one kilometer long Introduction threads, but only short pieces of threads. So, the rearer does not have to kill the pupae, which makes the rearing of eri-larvae acceptable even November 2015, the book “South Asian Ways of Silk.

  • Ancient Textiles from the Andes
    Whitworth Art Gallery | Manchester Ancient Textiles 29.03.2019 - 15.09.2019 from the Andes Preview: Thursday 28 March, 6-8 pm Opening March 29th 2019, the exhibition “Ancient Textiles from the Andes” at the Manchester Whitworth Gallery will present the Paul Hughes collection to compliment the Whitworth’s own collection of these splendorous woven artworks. Spanning the period 300 BC - 1200 AD, the exhibition is the most comprehensive insight to the Andean textile world ever mounted within the UK, a journey to unlock these exceptional cultures and artists to reveal their technical virtuosity and aesthetic refinements, also their role of revolutionising art history from the Bauhaus to other seminal artists and styles of our own era. Both Josef and Anni Albers were avid collectors as well as their Bauhaus collaborator and mentor Paul Klee. “Dedicated to my great teachers, the weavers of ancient Peru”, Ann Albers prefaced to her book “On Weaving”. In comparison to other medium such as ceramic, paintings and architectures, the textile arts of the Andes are widely regarded as the primal medium of artistic expression. A highly sophisticated system of textiles production that encompassed all known techniques and others such as interlocking tapestry, discontinuous weft, painted textiles, feather appliqué tie-dye and warped face weaving that emerged in cultures such as Paracas, Nazca, Wari, and Chancay will be displayed at the exhibition. Both in segments, wall hangings and in tunic forms, the exhibition narrates the complexities of their transition from local ritual to a wider shared universal culture. From an aesthetic point of view, Pre-Columbian Andean textile artists were also proficient in bold abstract expressions of solid colour fields and sophisticated geometries, also in more figurative stylistic renderings of their world and spiritual views.
