LEAVE YOUR TRACE – ONLY 1 place left!
Stitch, stencil and paint: explore the traditional with unconventional methods and forge new and unique paths in our textile practice. Using either canvas, cotton or linen build up your own language using a layering technique that incorporates painting, stencils and stitching techniques all on one unified surface.
Start with making a series of paper and plastic stencils that reflect your current interests. Secondly, carve into gel plates or linoleum blocks with original images in an effort to build some strong graphic content. Thirdly work with the fabric and paint directly onto the surface either prior to printing and stencilling or after. And finally explore interesting ways to use thread and yarn to embellish and manipulate our final surface to create finished images that exude optical punch and graphic flare. Any one of these combinations work extremely well together, however by fusing them onto one surface creates a rich and diverse surface. All levels
