Post 9 : Favourite Subject


Hi again! Now I talk about my favorite subject: Textile.

Textile is a subject about fiber-art, talk about the work textile, shibori, batik, and natural or synthetic fiber and other component.

This subject stands out aesthetic value I the fiber-art

My teacher is Constanza Urrutia and the assistant Josefa Espinoza, both was students in the university and they work with fibers, Constanza is an amazing teacher, I like this class and Josefa is very cute.

In this class, I and my classmate weave with cotton in a loom because the unit one is about tapestry, this work is about warp and the weave in a loom; we weave and make a tapestry. This work is a manual labor and is very slow, I like very much, I would like warp much, I just think in warp.

I like this subject because is magic, the woman in different culture is important in this area, the woman weave textile and has the control in the world of the representation.

Mapuche people is an example for me, Mapuche woman learn this tradition to have daughter when she was 7 years old.
