An Approach To Wire Using Textile Techniques, Toni Vallette-Satterfield
An Approach To Wire Using Textile Techniques, Toni Vallette-Satterfield
Masters Theses
Wire can be used in the same way as fiber in many textile processes. Wire is used to gain the same richness of texture that is exhibited in fibers and to capture the light reflective quality of the textile techniques.
The following processes are not for beginning students. Much experimentation went into the research for each technique. The first method is coiling. This technique is a single-element stitch process (without the needle), worked continuously over a core. The second technique is crochet, involving a single-element structure in which loops are interlocked in a continuous manner. The third technique is loom …
The Use Of The Blueprinting Process On Fiber, Lisa D. Larson
The Use Of The Blueprinting Process On Fiber, Lisa D. Larson
Masters Theses
This thesis is a summary of what one student has done with the process of blueprinting as applied to fiber. Persons interested in the dyeing or painting of warps for weaving may benefit in reading this paper as it introduces another facet of warp application.
The blueprinting process used is the same technique engineers use to reproduce plans and drawings. It is a nonsilver photographic technique that makes use of ferric salts which, when mixed with certain other chemicals and exposed to ultraviolet light, form a colored byproduct.
The research was begun with the study of the application of the …
Fibers And Fabrics In Stuffed Sculpture, Carol Ann Haskell Kessler
Fibers And Fabrics In Stuffed Sculpture, Carol Ann Haskell Kessler
Masters Theses
This thesis is a report of my experiences with fibers and fabrics in producing sculptural forms. They begin with my use of fibers in unstuffed sculpture and proceed to the use of stuffing materials in many varieties. To give an historical perspective, included are a number of related works, both primitive and recent. For the purpose of critical analysis, each sculptural form is pictorially presented and discussed.
