I had a meeting with a textile artist from Skien. She's here explaining me about the latest product she's made.
For you who can't quite see what it is, it's a woven "carpet" that represents a world map. Its woven in the colors green, yellow, brown and white. The plumb blue lines are the latitudes.
It was a fantastic peace of art.
Best viewed large!

Nasca, Mantle ("The Paracas Textile"), 100-300 C.E., cotton, camelid fiber, 58-1/4 x 24-1/2 inches / 148 x 62.2 cm, found south coast, Paracas, Peru (Brooklyn Museum)
Like many textile artists I find that if I produce items for sale, the cost of production (which includes the time dyeing the fabric, painting the image and then stitching and assembling) rarely results in an economic price. This is one of the reasons why I don't often make things to sell.
In a fit of madness I have agreed to do an exhibition where I am required to do just that.
I took the decision to make just a few items which is why I have been happily making rather large and elaborate pin cushions. These will have to be priced realistically, so in order to have some pieces which will be more affordable I have copied the image of Margaret Thatcher from a previous pin cushion and transfered the image using T shirt transfer paper. This means that I can produce smaller and more easily assembled items and thus charge less. One down and three to go, and already I'm bored ( and it shows). There is no pleasure in mass production which is why I avoid it at all costs.
This beautiful weaving was made around 1940 in Chiconcuac in the state of Mexico. Seen at the Museo Textil de Oaxaca

The whole photoshoot takes place in Kyoto, we have been using some restaurant for the indoor shots, and the area around Kamogawa for the shots outside! I am using Shoot-through umbrella as main light for the indoor shots!
Strobist info:
I will insert later the individual lighting information of each shot later, can't upload it as a batch! Also later this month after my new Wordpress based homepage is completed I will have an article about the photos there!

Preparing the textile samples involved separating them from their folders which happily proved straightforward. Next, I researched the dimensions of the trending phones, pads & laptops, not the most interesting stage in the process but easily accessed. Most of the work were completed on my sewing machine with finishing second hand sewn. The whole project was completed within two working days with a satisfyingly large body of finished work, a relatively rare outcome for me.
