The Art of Shibori


My fiber art concentrates on Arashi and Bomaki SHIBORI (which comes from a Japanese word meaning "to wring, squeeze, press"), a family of resist dyed textiles more commonly known as "tie dye". I work with 100% silk habotai fabric because it holds the pleats and colors very well in addition to the wonderful 'feel' of silk cloth! The pressing, folding, pleating, and steaming process creates beautiful color and interesting texture on previously white and flat cloth. I create shibori items to wear and display, and every item is one of a kind. See my artist statement and the shibori process for more on the Art of Shibori.
