PATTERNING THE PATTERN with Amy Nguyen

Amy Nguyen January 2025

PATTERNING THE PATTERN

Art may be considered man-made order or structure, while craft contains the accumulation of technical skill in daily practice. Both are necessary for the creative exploration of pattern and form.

Understanding the elements and principles of art through playful technical exercises in surface design and stitching will allow for creative freedom in making textiles for the body or home. We will explore surface design and structural techniques with brush, dye, paper, cloth, scissors, needle, and thread. Journals encouraged.

We will utilize natural fibers and both man-made and natural dyes to resist dyeing and printing. Honing our visual language and creating a textile pattern will be possible through further experimentation of elements such as line, shape, color, value, and texture and exploring size, scale, repetition, rhythm, and balance. We may further develop our textile with a historic pattern shape in mind, such as the beautiful kimono. A variety of seam construction and finishing techniques will be demonstrated.
