Tapestry Weaving in a High-Warp Loom

Overview

“We began to design our tapestry. The main motif of this piece will be a vase with flowers in a geometric style. We will see how to build this sketch from some geometric shapes cut out of paper and combining them with each other. In this section we will also define the types of fabric and the measurements that it will have to later assemble the necessary warp.”

In this video lesson María Malatrama addresses the topic: Tapestry design, which is part of the Domestika online course: Tapestry Weaving in a High-Warp Loom. Learn how to weave a decorative tapestry from scratch by combining different types of shapes, fabrics, and textures.

Partial transcription of the video

“It's time to start designing our tapestry. focusing on graphic synthesis and object geometrization. We'll simplify real objects into geometric shapes or combinations. This method entails transforming a tangible item’s form into a geometric representation or combining multiple shapes. It focuses on analyzing the actual item and discerning its fundamental elements. and envisioning how it would appear if constructed from geometric shapes like triangles. rectangles. or circles. To clarify further. i've brought along a selection of pre-cut geometric shapes for This method is both practical and e...”
