AR115
Fiber Arts
Prof. Margo Mensing

 

 

 

 

The objective of AR 115 is to teach the basic principles of weaving, dyeing, and printing. In addition, a number of other techniques and procedures, such as knitting, netting, stitching, and knotting, are covered. The Honors Forum Workshop is organized thematically, opening up the possibilities for interlacing the technical material within a conceptual framework. Students read and discuss supplemental material focused on the theme. Writing will be integral to the Honors Workshop. Students will write two or three essays, based on the readings, their textile studies, and the work of well known artists.
