Creating textile pattern not pieces of art to hang on the wall

Creating textile pattern not pieces of art to hang on the wall

This was a really interesting and thoughtful workshop, the idea of the workshop was to create small frames around an image using a matchbox and then enlarge the image on around over the A2 card. I found this very interesting developing ideas of scale and form.

Whilst driving home I was able to reflect on the workshop and the conversations I had had with the tutor, I think I am beginning to understand the difference between creating a piece of art work and a repeating design, I don’t think an image can simply be put into repeat it and be expected to work, balance and flow of the image are very important.
