Material Library
Organic Fibers
Traditional silk and cotton threads provide the foundation for many pieces. These natural materials offer subtle texture variations and excellent workability for intricate patterns.
Synthetic Threads
Contemporary synthetic materials offer enhanced durability and unique visual properties. These threads maintain consistent color and texture throughout the artwork's lifespan.
Tech-Threads
Reflective and luminescent thread varieties create interactive visual experiences. These materials respond to light conditions, adding dynamic quality to the artwork.
Tactile Lifecycle
Material Selection
Each thread type is chosen based on its physical properties, visual characteristics, and compatibility with the intended design. The selection process considers texture, color fastness, and working properties.
Different materials respond differently to tension and handling, requiring appropriate techniques for each thread variety.
Long-Term Characteristics
Natural fibers may develop subtle texture changes over time, while synthetic materials maintain consistent appearance. Understanding material behavior helps ensure artwork longevity.
The combination of different material types within a single piece creates visual interest and adds complexity to the artwork's surface.
Technical Specifications
Thread Documentation
Each artwork includes documentation of the materials used, providing transparency about the composition and origin of threads. This information helps collectors understand the technical aspects of each piece.
Material specifications include thread weight, fiber content, color information, and any special properties such as reflectivity or texture characteristics.
Understanding material properties contributes to proper care and appreciation of each artwork's unique qualities.
