CHILD ART AS DESIGN ELEMENTS FOR FABRIC DECORATION

This study conveys to the fore the significance of child visual art works as valuable potential designed elements for the development of fashionable prints for children’s wear. With a little modification, the paper reveals the possibility of using these works from the children to promote their creativity in the realm of fabric design. As a practicable project, the practice-based research under the qualitative design methodology was used. The drawings of 411 purposive sampled participants; 2 to 12 year-old boys and girls from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Nursery and Primary School (Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Campus) and D and D Kiddie Kare and Academy (Deduako) in kindergarten and basics one to six were systematically examined. Descriptive analysis used, drew on a range of children’s art works to provide fresh hypothetical insight into the possibility of using child art as a motif for developing fashionable designed fabric prints. The key findings are that children’s developed works of art are innovative and dynamic, give them a sense of joy and identity that develops into relevance when processed into children’s fashionable wear. The paper also acknowledges that creativity makes use of the traditional and the conventional methods for developing textile motifs, a promising source of creativeness that has the potential to overwhelm the field of design for children’s fashionable wears. Since Art culture is an integral part of every human being, this paper seeks to advocate that textile design experts must engage and elicit children’s perspectives and experiences through art

Indonesian Tie-Dye Exploration with Fabric Manipulation

2018

From the global fashion perspective, many countries have already established their own tie-dye styles. On the contrary, Indonesia with their strong culture in textile hasn't had their own tie-dye style that is known worldwide. The aim of this research is developing a new technique by integrating pattern and texture design principles in tie-dyed textile so that the textile could have the attractive potential towards the wider individuals as a wearable art. This experimental method will be done in four stages of the experimental research consist of: 1) Data collection; 2) Technique and material experiment; 3) Tie-dyed fabric development; 4) Implementation of the tie-dyed fabric into a ready-to-wear Outer apparel. The final result of the experiment is a tiedyed Organza silk made into a ready-to-wear Outer with extra fabric manipulations without altering the characteristics yet enhance the shape of the textile by the Gathering techniques with the result of wrinkled and bubbly texture. Furthermore, the texture has the ability to cover the printed pattern developed from the tie-dye technique for both the perfect and imperfect pattern made from the improper binding technique. Consequently, by the fabric manipulation applied, the same idea could aid the problem of unsellable defective tie-dyed pattern faced by the traditional textile craftsmen.

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Creative Media, Design and Technology (REKA 2018), 2018

Images on fabric contributes significantly to the value of fashion product. The image can be a pattern or a picture. Nowadays, those images is made in various ways, by manually or by the help of technology, such as digital printing. Amid the use of sophisticated printing technology, the hand painting fabric technique remains exist and even increasingly demanded by the community. This is proven by the increasing numbers of orders experienced by the researcher who run a hand painting fabric fashion business for more than 3 years. Hand painting fabric provides unique value because of the story behind the making. Care should be taken in the making process as a work of art. Wearing a hand painting fashion is wearing an art work, beyond just wearing an ordinary cloth. However, producing a high quality and unique hand painting fashion depends on careful treatment by considering fabric characteristics, including the type of fabric fibers.There are two types of fabric fiber, synthetic and natural fiber. Both synthetic and natural fibers have different types of woven technique and lamination. Each type affects different painting technique that can be implemented. An object painted in natural fabric fiber cannot be easily replicated on synthetic fabric fiber. It will be slightly different in terms of its impression of shape, size or color. The method in this research is experimental. This study shows difference results in the painting because of the different types of fabric fiber used. This research gives recommendation on what technique can be implemented to produce desired painting, considering different character of natural and synthetic fabric fiber. The finding can strengthen the uniqueness of the painting as a crucial value for prospective consumers.
