Abstract [en]

This project places itself in the area of Textile Design, relief patterns and weaving. The project drives from an interest of not taking design so seriously, letting it be playful and maybe slightly meaningless, in terms of functionality. This design is not something that is needed, neither a problem-solving design. Rather, the intention is to investigate how the design would be saturated in a context where it would be something unpractical and extra. Extra as something that is not necessary. With the aim of the project is to explore texture and volume by designing tactile relief patterns through the combination of Jacquard weaving and hand painting. The process consists of experimenting in the Jacquard: weaving in undyed yarns to create form through bindings and material. The woven textiles are then painted with a mix of pigment and water to highlight or distort the form of the weave. The outcome of the study is a collection of several pieces, where volume, texture, and tactile patterns are explored. This work contributes to the field of textile design by displaying a possibility to use a hands-on step in the Jaquard process, as well as the appearance of the hand: aquarelle look and a clear hand brush that is not possible using dyed yarns.
