In this one-day workshop, students will experiment with sublimation printing techniques using disperse dyes and papers, followed by an afternoon of combining techniques by flocking onto your sublimation prints. You can translate your designs from paper to fabric using the heat press to create a range of samples, exploring surface design.
This workshop is suitable for teachers, designers, students and for those who are curious about surface design. No experience necessary. The sublimation and flocking processes are suitable for textiles, fine art, fashion and interiors. All materials will be provided but participants are welcome to bring additional materials with them if they wish.
Participants are encouraged to make their own hand-cut stencils prior to the workshop, this will allow more time for printing during the day. By the end of the one-day course, you will have a collection of fabric samples that you can use to add to or develop your portfolios.
