Weaving

How could we ever imagine that surface design is separate from weaving? Unlike the painter¹s canvas that supports the image without affecting its appearance, the woven cloth dipped in dye directly affects the color quality. Surface design applied to threads prior to weaving becomes integral to the fabric. Further, the structure created through the process of weaving has its own surface character. And processes like devoré are only possible because of variations in the character of threads woven into cloth. Yet, rarely do we focus on weaving itself as an aspect of surface design.
