Abstract

"As the time-honored technique of interlacing yarn or fiber, weaving has developed an extensive and transformative history. From traditional basket weaving in Eastern Asia to woven wall hangings and installations by self-taught contemporaries, the 24 designers and artists featured in Woven Together exemplify the endless possibilities of textiles across generations and cultures. With artist insight into their materials, equipment and personal processes, readers will learn technical skills as well as be inspired to tell their own narrative through the power of this intimate craft"

Abstract

To be truly prized and employable, textile and fashion designers have to be aware of, and knowledgeable about, a wide range of processes to enable their designs to be manufactured effectively, often thousands of miles from their design studio. This much-needed new reference is the only encyclopedic guide to manufacturing processes and materials that is truly relevant for textile and fashion designers. It is organized into five main parts: fiber and yarn technology; textile technology; construction technology; life cycle strategies; and materials appendix. This book is a complete overview of the life cycle of textile and fashion manufacturing, from the spinning of yarn to recycling. All the processes feature detailed step-by-step case studies showing the process in manufacture at a leading international supplier. The appendix features essential knowledge on over sixty natural and synthetic materials. With around 1,400 specially commissioned photographs and technical illustrations, this is the indispensable, reliable, convenient, and highly accessible practical reference for all textile and fashion designers.

Abstract

We are on the cusp of a revolution, where the intersection of technology, the human body and everyday objects will become completely seamless. Smart textiles are a key part of this revolution. Smart Textiles for Designers introduces the different qualities and properties that can be embedded in, integrated with, and applied to fabrics and looks at the different contexts in which these smart textiles can be used, from healthcare to haute couture, firefighting to sportswear. A survey of specific fabrics grouped by properties provides a core reference section and a palette for the designer to work from. The book also examines five different design approaches and features interviews with leading designers and design teams, showing their processes and working methods. The first book to look at this exciting and quickly developing area of technology through the eyes of a designer, this is both a core reference work and an inspirational guide for students and professionals alike.

Abstract

Textiles in reality such as tarpaulin on scaffoldings, car or motorbike cover, or protection water-resistant are familiar objects which are used in daily life. By looking at them and talking about the possibilities of experiencing them through urban environment or ordinary architecture, they reveal an extra layer to the landscape. These covers are used as a protection, as a signaling device, as a camouflage. They have a specific purpose, a functionality. It is used to protect from debris when it is used for scaffold. It is used to protect from the birds when it is used on vineyards, for instance. In this text, I developed several entries through functionality, tactility, materiality and sensory perceptions. I show how these covers are disturbing the reality by redefining landscape and finding themselves as a kind of embellishment in a temporary architecture. How they reveal new forms of the part that is hidden and become together a strange combination. Finally, how this assemblage can become a poetic and surrealist creature.

Abstract

The catalogue that accompanies the exhibition Re-enchanting the World by Małgorzata Mirga-Tas in the Polish Pavilion at the 59th International Art Exhibition (the first time that a Roma artist is representing a national pavilion in the over-120-year history of the Venice Biennale): an attempt to expand the Polish and European iconosphere and art history with representations of Roma culture. Re-enchanting the World is a publication accompanying Małgorzata Mirga-Tas’s exhibition of the same name, shown in the Polish pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale. The exhibit is Mirga-Tas’s manifesto on Roma identity and art, drawing inspiration from the Renaissance frescoes of the Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara and thus attempting to expand the European iconosphere and history of art with representations of Roma culture.The title of the project and this book is inspired by Silvia Federici’s book Re-enchanting the World: Feminism and the Politics of the Commons (2018), in which re-enchanting—a non-violent process in which women play an important role—reverses the unfortunate fate of the world, shaking off its evil spell. This publication presents Mirga-Tas’s re-enchanting of the world as a way of recovering the idea of the Roma community, with consideration to transnationality, cyclicity and the evolution of meanings, proposing a new narrative about the continuous cultural migration of images and mutual influences between Roma, Polish and European cultures.Within the multidirectional texts featuring poetry, prose and essays, as well as images of Mirga-Tas’s project and its process, we witness her re-enchantment of the world through a re-examination of identity, a recognition of feminine power, and a re-presentation of historical and contemporary visual narratives.

Abstract

De veranderende status van tricot in de mode vormt een fascinerend verhaal waarin de draden van socioculturele omwentelingen en modeontwerp stevig met elkaar vervlochten zijn. Door deze geschiedenis te ontrafelen, met haar vele ups en downs op verschillende plaatsen en in verschillende decennia, toont dit boek hoe onze hedendaagse kijk op breiwerk werd gevormd. Door de associatie van breiwerk met hobbycultuur, vrouwelijkheid en ambachtelijkheid wordt wel eens vergeten dat tricot ook een heel modieus product is, en zelfs een gedurfde keuze voor modeontwerpers die er graag mee experimenteren. De huidige comeback van het tricot is in feite een heropleving van iets wat nooit helemaal weg is geweest. Nauw aansluitende jurken, jerseysportkleding, grof breiwerk, sculpturale volumes, netachtige body's met het uitzicht van kantwerk... de mogelijkheden van breiwerk vormen een onuitputtelijke inspiratiebron voor modeontwerpers. Dit boek licht een tipje van de sluier op van de verborgen geschiedenis van breiwerk en ontrafelt gaandeweg de productiemethoden, de achterliggende sociale geschiedenis en de esthetische ontwikkelingen en omwentelingen van tricot in de mode. Van stijlvolle 'opa-cardigans' tot oorlogsbreiwerk, van verfijnde kousen tot 3D-breiwerk, over de onvergankelijke aantrekkingskracht van de twinset en de notie van het vormloze in de mode, dit boek trekt de draad beetje bij beetje los, en voor onze ogen verschijnt de rijke geschiedenis van iets wat wij altijd heel gewoon en vanzelfsprekend hebben gevonden: breiwerk.
