About the final project for: Discharge Printing Techniques for Textiles

Discharge Printing Techniques for Textiles

“We have reached the end of this Domestika course! I hope you liked it and that you have learned what is necessary to encourage you to enter the world of fabric corrosion. I want to thank you for accompanying me throughout this colorful journey. Now it's time for you to make your final project and show how you applied one of the techniques seen during the course on a garment. Next, we are going to review the different phases that we follow to develop the final project: Look for references for inspiration This first step is very important, since you will have to think about the references that you like and that will serve as inspiration for the following steps. You can create a mood board with your references to always have on hand. Choice of fabrics Now it is time to choose the fabrics with which you are going to work. Do not forget to verify that the fabrics are corrodible and suitable for your project.

Color palette selection This step is very fun and you can express all your creativity. Remember that in the "First steps" unit you can access many resources that will help you when choosing your color palette. You can also go outside and let yourself be carried away by the colors that surround you!
Create a swatch Now you should think about putting together a sampler based on the concepts of your inspiration references or your mood board.
Application of techniques Once you have your sampler made, it's time for action! Apply one or more of the techniques that we saw in the course on the garments you chose. Get carried away by inspiration!
And that's it! Remember that you can experiment as many times as you want. I'm sure you'll get lots of ideas! Now share your final project with all of us by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result of your project and the steps that have led you to it. It would be great if you could show me an image of each phase and add a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. Before we say goodbye, I want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, sharing your progress as well as asking questions or giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress! I will try to go through the forum as much as possible, but please be patient because there will be times when I have professional commitments and it will take me a while to respond. See you on the forum! ”

Partial transcription of the video

“Final project First of all, thank you for getting to this point. and have taken my course. I started by telling you about myself, my work and my influences. Then I told you about the corrosion technique, What does it consist of and what is its origin? We saw how to make the formula and apply it on different fabrics to see how he reacts in each of them. I also showed you the different tools you can use when stamping. We work the techniques of roller, taping, split inkwell, frottage and stencil, and so I was forming the sampler. It is important that you do not forget to be very careful when h...”
