Yarn teased from satin

By Claire Barber 2003
'Blue yarn teased from satin' was part of a larger body of work created during the THROUGH THE SURFACE project, presenting the opportunity to work in Nishi Otsu, Japan for three months alongside the established textile artist Teruyoshi Yoshida. It was both an innovative and collaborative process of exchange of ideas, techniques and cultural experiences using textiles as the main medium of expression that we perceived on many different conceptual levels.
