Translucent Weaving
These are my newest exploration with translucent weaving incorporating the ancient inlay technique of Jamdani from India and Bangladesh. I have also incorporated some painted warp and applique with light weight fabrics. Jamdani has been used for centuries to create beautiful sarees, but I am using the technique for my art. It's all plain weave with a supplemental weft to create opaque images that create shadows which become part of the work.
