Depth and Mystery in Shibori with Doshi

With Shibori the dyer works in concert with the materials, not to overcome their limitations, but to allow them full expression. An element of the unexpected is always present. Chance and accident give life to the Shibori process, contributing to its special magic, appeal, and individual expression. 

We will explore several methods of enhancing the fabric; creating depth and mystery through color and texture, and increasing the complexity of imagery and pattern.

  • various methods of shaped resist 
  • layering resist techniques
  • adding color through pour dyeing and immersion dyeing
  • discharge

We will also look at color—inspiration, choosing, and mixing—with acid dyes on a variety of silk fabrics. Layering color upon color adds visual depth and allows the fabric to vibrate visually.
