IKAT
Ikat
Guided by: Sri Murali Sir, Sri Shankar Sir, Arnab Senapati
Duration : 3 weeks
The Ikat course was guided by Sri Murali Sir, Sri Shankar Sir and Arnab Senapati during Aug 2023. The project aims at learning the traditional craft of Ikat which covers concept building and later transforming it into a main design and coordinates for the warp, tying, dying and weaving. Taking forward the learnings of double cloth from the Advanced Weaving course and combining it to a new technique was an exciting experience.

Inspiration Board
Two warps were tied and dyed separately and then the final loom was set up with end and end warp to explore the possibility of double cloth and interaction between 2 warps.
