Resist: A World of Resist Dye Techniques
Friday October 26, 2012 from 10:00am - 4:45pm
Kent State University Museum
Rockwell Hall
Kent, Ohio 44242 Get Directions
The exhibition is organized by technique in order to bring together examples from around the globe. The objects are grouped into three main categories of resist methods: mechanical, chemical, and ikat. While specific techniques may vary widely, they rely on a few basic principles. The dye can be resisted using mechanical means by tying, stitching or folding. Alternately the resist can be chemical, generally paste or wax. The third category, ikat, refers to textiles in which the resist is applied to the threads before weaving. Ikat is generally a mechanical resist technique, in which the threads are wrapped and bound.
