Introduction
Introduction
Weaving is conventionally considered as a 2 dimensional "process" , mostly in the context of fabrics. This research intends to explore the concept of 3 dimensional weaving through the conventional 2d weaving processes . Further investigating the process through the understanding of materials , their combinations .
Intent & Questions
Intent & Questions
What is a 3D weave? Traditionally weaving is used as a method of textile production, mostly in 2 dimensions. These experiments attempt to answer the questions "when does a weave become 3D ? ", "what is a frame ? " etc. Through the exploration of multi-axial weaving. Further altering and combining the possibilities of materials, frames.
2D Weaving
2D Weaving
In standard 2-dimensional weaving (the left illustration), weft threads (red) are woven through warp threads (black). In the simplest possible pattern, the weft alternates between passing above and below the warp, creating a single layer of fabric.
Wrap threads (white) are arranged parallelly ,1.5 cm apart through the cuts made on both the ends of the cardboard piece and tied to create tension. The weft thread (yellow) passing alternately above and below the warp, creating a single layer of fabric.
Material And Tools
Metal tar, Wool, Scooby. Metal tar makes the secondary frame, the wool forms the X-axis and the Scooby forms the Y-axis.
