Art-Cloth with *Recycled Newspaper*
Above are *details* from my latest work. An Art-Cloth study with *Paper*.
This is an Art-Cloth which has been painted, resisted, dyed and Infused with recycled newspapers, a technique I developed and called INC (Infused Newsprint Cloth).
The challenge for me was to obtain a soft, washable, pliable and easy to sew fabric. This is not an easy task, especially after the addition of several layers of dyes and paints plus the application of paper.
I am pleased with the results! This is a 32 inches by 32 inches piece of cotton. Now that I know it works I am already planning my next project.
