A weekend course for anyone who wants to work experimentally and intuitively with textile printing, pattern building and visual composition. It suits both complete beginners and those with experience who want to go deeper into the process.
You begin with sketching: bring your own earlier sketches or create new ones in ink and brush under guidance. From there you develop print-ready motifs for screen printing and playful methods for composing patterns. Along the way you are introduced to techniques such as overprinting, monoprint and different binding methods, and you learn how motifs are transferred onto printing screens. You will leave with skills to continue developing your own visual language on fabric.
The course is taught by textile designer Lisa Adele Rogersdotter, who works with patterns for textiles and wallpaper. Her next workshop is at the same venue on 13 November.
