Uncover the Art of Shibori
Shibori is a traditional Japanese dyeing technique that involves binding, folding, or compressing fabric to create distinct patterns. With roots dating back to the 8th century, Shibori boasts a rich history intertwined with Japanese culture and aesthetics.
Our workshop provides a platform to learn and practice various Shibori techniques, including:
- Kumo Shibori: Known as the "spider web" technique, Kumo Shibori involves pleating and binding fabric to achieve mesmerizing spider-web-like patterns.
- Itajime Shibori: This technique involves folding and clamping fabric between wooden or plastic boards, resulting in geometric designs and clean lines.
- Arashi Shibori: Known as the "storm" technique, Arashi Shibori involves wrapping fabric around a pole and binding it tightly. The resulting patterns resemble the patterns made by rain during a storm.
- Ne-Maki Shibori: A technique that creates intricate patterns by wrapping fabric around a core and then binding it tightly with thread.
Our skilled instructors will guide you through the step-by-step process of each Shibori technique, providing demonstrations and personalized assistance. You'll have the opportunity to experiment with different materials, colors, and patterns, allowing your creativity to flourish.
