Skyscraper (Jacquard woven, Programmed by Pointcarre)
Details
Inspirations
wool, cotton
45 inch* 70 inch Through this project I was experimenting the four weft structure in Jacquard weaving. Inspired by the skyscrapers that I saw on my way to Boston every Mondy for work during 2024 Fall, I collaged the photos of those buidling, natural light refletion, and the window reflections digitally. Using four weft yarns while weaving allowed me to achieve more complex texture and colors. By creating this piece, I hope to intergrate the manmade archtecture forms and the natural environment that co-exist with the archtectures. During the sampling step, I was also testing pleated structure in smaller scale when the wool got felted after wet finishing.
