Textile Technology and Design - From Interior Space to Outer Space (Paperback): Deborah Schneiderman, Alexa Griffith Winton Textile Technology and Design - From Interior Space to Outer Space (Paperback)
Deborah Schneiderman, Alexa Griffith Winton

Textile Technology and Design addresses the critical role of the interior at the intersection of design and technology, with a range of interdisciplinary arguments by a wide range of contributors: from design practitioners to researchers and scholars to aerospace engineers. Chapters examine the way in which textiles and technology - while seemingly distinct - continually inform each other through their persistent overlapping of interests, and eventually coalesce in the practice of interior design. Covering all kinds of interiors from domestic (prefabricated kitchens and 3D wallpaper) to extreme (underwater habitats and space stations), it features a variety of critical aspects including pattern and ornament, domestic technologies, craft and the imperfect, gender issues, sound and smart textiles. This book is essential reading for students of textile technology, textile design and interior design.

The artistic works by Sabine Groschup, a student of Maria Lassnig, range from painting, textile art and cinematic creations to sculptural pieces, literature and photography as well as spatial, video and sound installations. In her Augsburg solo exhibition "DER DOPPELTE (T)RAUM" (the Double Dream), Groschup presents her multifaceted work on a specially created, surreal stage. Real space and dream oscillate and merge into one another. This sets in motion a tense interplay between reality and dream, which is the focus of the artist's creative oeuvre. The essays collected here - by Silvia Eiblmayr, Katja Gasser and Peter Weibel, among others - help the reader to decipher and classify this oeuvre. First comprehensive presentation of Groschup's extensive and diverse artistic oeuvre.

Erik Cohen
R627 Discovery Miles 6 270 Out of stock

This volume brings together research into the process of commercialization of the folk crafts of Thailand: the conditions of its emergence, the parties involved in its development, the changes in the processes and organization of production which accompany it, the channels through which commercialized craft products are marketed, the nature of the audiences they reach, and the transformations in appearance and meaning which the products undergo as a result of their commercialization. The first part of the book explores the commercialization of hill tribe textiles, particularly those of the Hmong refugees from Laos. The second part presents a series of case studies of the various ways in which the products of lowland Thai "craft villages" became commercialized.

Common Threads explores ideas of artistic identity and memory contained within the narrated stories of ten textile artists. It reveals how individuals bring a sense of linearity to fragments of memory and create a cohesive sense of self through telling their life's story.By employing a systems model, the author constructs new ideas of interrogating identity and art practice. The model, "Constructing Personal Narratives", brings into focus the hermeneutic circle of learning, and identifies the importance and need to provide opportunities for lifelong learning. The stories told by the participants who returned to the formal education sector later in life reveal the profound effects adult learning had upon their lives. The writer reveals how the model generated the interview questions that provided the rich biographical content that emerged within dialogues.The common threads of experience and feelings of the ten participants and the author are revealed, and from these emerge deepened understandings of both the place of stories within our lives and how stories can further an understanding of what it means to be an artist. Emerging from these stories are implications for teaching practice; these are presented as observations and questions in terms of how educators should be part of the learning experience with those they educate.
