Language of Weave

Course Description

In this course, students will analyse the language a textile woven fabric communicates creating a dialogue through its creation process on the loom and the context it takes birth in. This course will explore specialised weaving techniques like warp and weft ikkat along with double ikkat, sussi, and duree etc. Students will understand how interlacing of yarns narrate woven stories of indigenous craft, explore hidden contexts and discover the invisible aspects of the woven language.
