Notes

From label for exhibition "All of Everything" at RISD Museum, written by Todd Oldham: This fabric was one of my favorite engineering feats we ever pulled off. First we had Chinese silk embroidered in India, then we photographed it and had it made into sublimation papers. We die-cut polyester organza flowers and stitched them onto polyester fabric before it was printed, so the transfer went right through and it ghosted. It’s sheer enough that the gas was able to travel through. On the body, the pattern doesn’t look disrupted; it shimmers. Because the pattern matches up, it doesn’t become visual chaos. This was one of the few times I thought we did something that I had never seen before.
