TEXTILE PROJECT
Solidago
2018
"S’imprime sur ma rétine une sensation vive, seul témoin de la surprise du jour."
An intense sensation remains on my retina, the only witness to the surprise of the day.
The textile assortment called "Solidago" is an attempt to express the strong visual presence of this plant. The yellow little flowers stand out from the greens of the surrounding. It is like a sparkle of sunset light.
All the textiles are hand dyed and screen printed with natural dyes. Then some of them are hand embroidered.
Above, from left to right :
Silk twill : natural dye reseda, screen printing reseda + iron, embroidery
Linen (small) : natural dye reseda, screen printing reseda + iron, embroidery

Through embroidery, I got interested on how to work on the Solidago flower itself. Making each sample in buttons allowed them to be worn alone or accumulated.
