The art of Shibori can be traced to ancient times and from around the world: South America, the Middle East, Africa, India, China, Malaysia, and Japan. It made its way to North America in the twentieth century, most notably as the colorful tie-dye t-shirts from the era of the Grateful Dead. Kathleen Waln, Shibori artist and weaver, will discuss traditional and woven Shibori and will illustrate both techniques using some of her own unique pieces that feature hand woven/hand dyed fabrics in cotton and silk. Examples from Walns collection will include a traditional Shibori Japanese kimono and noren (a form of Japanese domestic textile), her fabric collection, and her own traditional Shibori silks.
