'A colourful and exciting overview of textiles today which does not just look forward, but also sideways in recognition of our cultural and historical connection to the fabric of our lives' Embroidery
Chloe Colchester's survey reveals a diverse, exciting and provocative field, one at the vanguard of extraordinary technological developments while also the source of astonishing works of beauty. From colour-changing, light-sensitive camouflage to emergency shelters of cement-impregnated fabric bonded to an inflatable plastic, from Eley Kishimoto's gorgeous patterns to the astonishing colours of Morphotex, this dazzingly fresh sourcebook of original and inspiring designs will appeal to all designers and anyone with an interest in textiles.
