Cresside Collette Tutor in Tapestry Weaving and Drawing School of Fashion and Textiles RMIT University [email protected] Abstract Since Mediaeval times drawing has been the foundation for and the integrated content of woven tapestry. This paper traces the evolution of a rich, colourful, tactile medium in response to the drawn image, the shift in importance of the weaver as artist within the process, and the emergence of Tapestry as a Contemporary art form in its own right. Keywords Drawing, Tapestry, Cartoon, Artist, Weaver. “Found in Translation – the transformative role of Drawing in the realisation of Tapestry.” Introduction A bold definition of tapestry is that it is a woven work of art. It carries an image, made possible by virtue of what is known as discontinuous weft, i.e. the weft is built up in small shapes rather than running in continuous rows across the warp. The structure of the material comprises warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) threads. Hand woven on a loom, the weft yarn generally covers the warp, resulting in a weft - faced fabric. The design, which is woven into the fabric, forms an integral part of the textile as the artist/weaver constructs the image and surface simultaneously. Of all the textile arts, tapestry is the medium that finds its form and expression most directly in the drawn line. Drawing is the thread, both literally and metaphorically, that enables the existence of woven tapestry and it has played both a supporting and a didactic role in the realisation of this image - based form.

  • Textile Traditions and Fashion Education in Mexico
    Textile Traditions and Fashion Education in Mexico Thomai Thessalia Papathanasiou and Alessandra Perlatti Introduction Mesoamerican textile weaving reflects a continuous history of interpretation based on ancient, historic, and modern ideologies and techniques. The textiles that are found in museums and private collections and among the indigenous people of Mesoamerica, where the ancient art of weaving continues today, are significant resources of information. (Klein, 1997, 1) The richness of textile traditions in Mexico is worldly recognized. Mesoamerican cultures are still alive nowadays in different parts of the country, and cultural heritage still survives among the indigenous peoples who inhabit modern Mexico. One of the strongest features of these cultures are their weaving, dyeing, embroidering, and looming techniques. Textile traditions, combined with craftsmanship, music, and dance are the foundation of popular culture in Mexico. Although popular culture has always been seen as trivial and of a lower level when compared to high culture, it provides the best way to detect and recognize a collective state of mind and the lifestyle of a particular society. It is through popular culture that we can more easily identify the colors, smells, sounds, and normative behavior of a community. Modern Mexican fashion designers nowadays therefore face a great challenge to find an in-between place where they can celebrate their cultural roots and at the same time create cutting edge designs. How can they honor indigenous craftsmanship without

  • 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.

The elephants, winged horses, and composite creatures with dog heads and peacock tails are positioned alternately face-to-face and back-to-back. The fabric is designed to be viewed both from a distance and more closely. From a distance, the overall structure with its repeating pattern forms a grid in which geometrical roundels oscillate between contact and isolation. They are so close they seem almost to touch both each other and the complicated vegetal patterns in the spaces between, although in fact each roundel remains separate from every other visual element in the textile.
