  • 1 SUMMARY the Shibori, Batik and Ikat Techniques Are Known As Resist
    SIMBOL ŞI TEHNICĂ ARHAICĂ-RAPEL ÎN CREAłIA CONTEMPORANĂ BITAY ECATERINA 1 SUMMARY The Shibori, Batik and Ikat techniques are known as resist dyeing techniques. „Shibori” is actually an old name of the Tie-dye technique, a widespread expression in the hippie communities of the 60’s – 70’s period, when this technique had a great success also among the fashion designers, making a spectacular comeback, after a long period of sporadic isolation in certain areas of the world, especially in Japan, Africa and South America. The first textiles found by archaeologists are so old that we may say that world history could be read in the nations’ textiles. The rise of the civilizations and the fall of the empires are woven and printed on the scarves and the shrouds of the great conquests main characters. Archaeological diggings revealed signs of these traditions of 5000 years old. Religion, traditions, myths, superstitions and rituals are closely related to the textiles belonging to many nations of Eastern Asia, Asia Minor, and of the Pacific Islands, their aesthetic value being, more than once, secondary. CHAPTER 1 THE SHIBORI TECHNIQUE The origin of the word “Shibori” is the verb “shiboru” which means to wring, to twist, to press. Even if “shibori” refers to a particular group of resist dyeings, the word’s origin suggests the cloth manipulation process and it can comprise modern methods of dyeing which involve the same type of cloth treatment, possibly without pigments or treatment with pigments applied by using totally different methods than the ancient ones. Shibori can be divided in many ways: according to the areas where it is used, such as Japan, China, India, Africa, Indonesia, South America or according to the details usesd in the technique.

  • Batik Wax Instructions
    Instructions Batik Wax Batik: A History Although its exact origin is uncertain, the earliest known batiks were discovered in Egyptian tombs dating back to the 4th century BCE. Wax-resist techniques were probably developed independently by disparate cultures throughout the ancient world. By the seventh century AD, patterning fabric using resists such as wax was a widespread practice throughout Asia and Africa and was perhaps most fully developed as an artform in Indonesia, where batik predates written records. By the thirteenth century, it became a highly respected art form and pastime for the women of Java and Bali, as recognizable motifs, patterns and colors became signifiers of one’s family and geographical area. Distinct styles and traditions proliferated and spread with the exchange of cultures through trade and exploration (see the “inland” and “coastal” batiks of Java, for instance — the two traditions couldn’t be more different). In the seventeenth century, as the world grew smaller, batik was introduced in Holland and other parts of Europe, where it became increasingly fashionable. Europeans and Americans traveling and living in the East encountered the ancient process and brought it back to their homelands — and spread it to colonies far away — where new traditions of batik branched out. Today, art schools across the United States and Europe offer batik courses as an essential part of their textile curricula.

Healdsburg, CA 95448 | www.jacquardproducts.com | 800.442.0455 Batik Instructions Preparing and designing your fabric All new fabrics must be washed with hot soapy water, rinsed and dried to remove factory-applied sizings which may inhibit color penetration.

On and immediately adjacent to a reservation area of approxiiiiately 16 million acres in northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico/and southern Utah, nearly 50,000 Navajos make their home. Sheep raising has been the main occupation of these people for well over a century. After years of continued overgrazing, the land has become badly eroded and will not support a sheep industry of sufficient size to maintain the constantly growing Navajo population. The number of mature sheep and goats on the reservation has been reduced to about 550,000 head, but the total number of stock, in- cluding horses and cattle, is still considerably in excess of the carrying capacity of the range, according to estimates of the Soil Conservation Service, of the United States Department of Agriculture.

  • Textile Printing
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 6399 Weston Parkway, Cary, North Carolina, 27513 • Telephone (919) 678-2220 ISP 1004 TEXTILE PRINTING This report is sponsored by the Importer Support Program and written to address the technical needs of product sourcers. © 2003 Cotton Incorporated. All rights reserved; America’s Cotton Producers and Importers. INTRODUCTION The desire of adding color and design to textile materials is almost as old as mankind. Early civilizations used color and design to distinguish themselves and to set themselves apart from others. Textile printing is the most important and versatile of the techniques used to add design, color, and specialty to textile fabrics. It can be thought of as the coloring technique that combines art, engineering, and dyeing technology to produce textile product images that had previously only existed in the imagination of the textile designer. Textile printing can realistically be considered localized dyeing. In ancient times, man sought these designs and images mainly for clothing or apparel, but in today’s marketplace, textile printing is important for upholstery, domestics (sheets, towels, draperies), floor coverings, and numerous other uses. The exact origin of textile printing is difficult to determine. However, a number of early civilizations developed various techniques for imparting color and design to textile garments. Batik is a modern art form for developing unique dyed patterns on textile fabrics very similar to textile printing. Batik is characterized by unique patterns and color combinations as well as the appearance of fracture lines due to the cracking of the wax during the dyeing process. Batik is derived from the Japanese term, “Ambatik,” which means “dabbing,” “writing,” or “drawing.” In Egypt, records from 23-79 AD describe a hot wax technique similar to batik.

By Dr. Washington Matthews. § I. The art of weaving, as it exists among the Navajo Indians of New Mexico and Arizona, possesses points of great interest to the stu- dent of ethnography. It is of aboriginal origin ; and while European art has undoubtedly modifled it, the extent and nature of the foreign influence is easily traced. It is by no means certain, still there are many reasons for supposing, that the Navajos learned their craft from the Pueblo Indians, and that, too, since the advent of the Spaniards; yet the pupils, if such they be, far excel their masters to-day in the beauty and quality of their work.

  • The Study of Coast Salish Weaving Began with the Remarkable
    Classic Salish Twined Robes Katharine Dickerson he study of Coast Salish weaving began with the remarkable work of Oliver N. Wells, who was born in 1907. He was a farmer and an amateur ethnographer, and was a third generation member Tof the Wells family, who lived on a farm near Chilliwack in the lower Fraser Valley. Oliver Wells grew up among the Stó:lō, the nearby Coast Salish people, and he was one of the few settler British Columbians who appreciated their Native neighbours and sought to understand and record their ways. His slim self-published booklet, Salish Weaving Primitive and Modern as Practiced by the Salish Indians of South West British Columbia (1969) is the point of departure for all subsequent studies of Coast Salish weaving. Wells divided his study into two chronological categories: primitive and modern. The former comprised all Salish weaving (including blankets, cloaks, straps and belts, aprons, mats, and baskets) before its virtual demise and eventual modern revival (for which he was partly responsible) during his own day. He did not explore the progressive penetration of external influences on the Indigenous weaving tradition beginning shortly after European contact. This was first attempted by Carolyn Marr in a little known master’s thesis that she completed in 1979 at the University of Denver.1 Marr associated what she called “organized blankets” with the new wealth produced in the maritime- and land-based fur trades,2 and with two-strand twining, or tapestry, weaving – a broad categorization that does not take into account the difference between traditional Salish weaving and its successors, which were influenced by European contact.

  • Chinese Knotting
    Chinese Knotting Standards/Benchmarks: Compare and contrast visual forms of expression found throughout different regions and cultures of the world. Discuss the role and function of art objects (e.g., furniture, tableware, jewelry and pottery) within cultures. Analyze and demonstrate the stylistic characteristics of culturally representative artworks. Connect a variety of contemporary art forms, media and styles to their cultural, historical and social origins. Describe ways in which language, stories, folktales, music and artistic creations serve as expressions of culture and influence the behavior of people living in a particular culture. Rationale: I teach a small group self-contained Emotionally Disturbed class. This class has 9- 12 grade students. This lesson could easily be used with a larger group or with lower grade levels. I would teach this lesson to expose my students to a part of Chinese culture. I want my students to learn about art forms they may have never learned about before. Also, I want them to have an appreciation for the work that goes into making objects and to realize that art can become something functional and sellable. Teacher Materials Needed: Pictures and/or examples of objects that contain Chinese knots. Copies of Origin and History of knotting for each student. Instructions for each student on how to do each knot. Cord ( ½ centimeter thick, not too rigid or pliable, cotton or hemp) in varying colors. Beads, pendants and other trinkets to decorate knots. Tweezers to help pull cord through cramped knots. Cardboard or corkboard piece for each student to help lay out knot patterns. Scissors Push pins to anchor cord onto the cardboard/corkboard.

It included historically resonant weaving and basketry, as well as the more recent adaptive and expedient practice of knitting.
