Introduction
During June 11th - 13th 2011 ArtWear Publications hosted and exhibited Australia’s biggest ArtCloth Swap in conjunction with the Textile Art Festival, which was held at the Brisbane Exhibition Centre, South Bank, Queensland.
Surface designers who contributed to the “ArtCloth Swap” were asked to decorate a 70 cm square piece of silk, which could include some of the following processes and media: dyeing, over-dyeing, shibori, discharge, rubbings, stamping, stenciling, screen printing, hand painting and foiling using dyes, paints, crayons, stitching, applique and embroidery.
After the Textile Art Festival closed, each participant was sent a surprise piece of ArtCloth that was created by one of the other “Swap” artists. The Swap was fun, challenging and showcased the diversity and creativity of ArtCloth enthusiasts.
Images and information about the ArtCloth Swap and Exhibition have been published in the September 2011, Issue No. 7 of Embellish magazine (ArtWear Publications). The issue will be available in newsagents until December. It is also available via subscription. Hence in order to ensure that this blog does not contain the full article (for ethical reasons) only some of the excellent contributions are presented here. I apologize for those who were not included in this blog but who nevertheless made the article in Embellish such a compelling “view”.
Below you can see some of the stunning entries that were showcased during the exhibition.
