工作室艺术学士-面料设计

面料设计的重点是向学生介绍传统面料设计技术，并结合当前用于面料表面和结构设计的创新和非传统材料，形式和工艺。面料设计集中于六个课程，探讨了广泛的技术，材料和工艺。织物表面设计引入了染色和印花技术以及在诸如拼布，贴花，反贴花，缝和刺绣等项目中使用这些织物的方式。先进的表面设计探索正式的，即兴的，解构的和照相乳剂筛选方法，以创建码数和概念性艺术品。非织造织物/纤维结构专注于卷取，湿法和干法毡合，制书和涂改以及以前课程中未探讨的织物构造技术。编织引入了使用织机创建织物的多种目的。强调颜色，设计和替代材料的使用。
The fabric design concentration introduces students to traditional fabric design techniques in combination with current innovative and non-conventional materials, forms and processes used in the design of fabric surface and structure. The fabric design concentration consists of six courses that explore a wide range of techniques, materials and processes. Fabric surface design introduces dye and print techniques and ways to use these fabrics in projects such as patchwork, applique, reverse applique, quilting, and embroidery. Advanced surface design explores formal, improvisational, deconstruction and photographic emulsion screening methods to create yardage and conceptual art pieces. Non-woven fabric/fiber structures focuses on coiling, wet and dry felting, book making and altering, and fabric construction techniques not explored in previous courses. Weaving introduces the use of looms to create fabric for a variety of purposes. Color, design and use of alternative materials are emphasized. The last two courses in the sequence allow students to problem-solve and to further study a specific fabric design medium, technique, or concept to develop a cohesive body of work.
