Textile
Design
Designing
for Textiles covers a wide range of activities from traditional and
contemporary craftsmanship to fashion and furnishing collection for
interior design.
As well as research into, and the development and use of new and old
materials that can be applied within these disciplines.
These areas also provide rich potential for research. Thus, not only
does the textile sector service a huge and complex world wide industry,
in addition the diverse and wide ranging nature of its scope provides
a fundamental creative basis to the textile designer or practitioner
from which to practice many other art and design disciplines.
In this part of the world, the textile industry is constantly changed
by and dependant upon wide-ranging issues related to culture, politics
and the economy. The inter-related cycles of these three areas present
innumerable issues that determine both the perceptions and the products
of textile design in Pakistan.
In the long run, it is for institutions like NCA to establish or discard
some of these perceptions by setting a standard in design and designer/makers
within this discipline nation-wide, and eventually, given the right
circumstances, a standard of international level.
These issues need to be addressed in an institutional forum that is
capable of providing broad-based training for textiles that produces
practitioners who can place themselves anywhere within the wide sphere
of textile or alternatively, create a niche for themselves in the
yet developing market of this locale.
