First, I have been aware of sustainable textile. I had a question
in my mind, what is sustainable and what can they help the environment by
relate to this issue? After I have been learnt in this course, getting to know
Ted research and TED’s ten strategies. I had lectures about
of these strategies, which has educated me a lot. I get a lot of knowledge and
good opportunity to see and know how designs can work with the issue of
sustainability. Also they give me a lot of idea to work with sustainable and
carefully thinking about the environment than before.
In a part of the elective we need to create a blog to record some
of idea from lectures class which related to sustainable textile. I have been
done kind of this process since last year. I have my own blog from last year as
well. So I think that make me confuse if I write a new topic for this lectures
in own blog. So I decided to create a new blog. And, I was aspect of the blog
which different from a normal journal in fact a public information. I wrote and
shared my experiences to a worldwide community by blog. I created tags or
categories below each my topic for easy to find, share ideas, and discussion. I
was aware of recording an idea, and developing it as clarity method. In the
present, the world has more change than in the past, it has more sensitive from
human behavior. They made pollution to impact environment such as chemical
impact, waste , energy, and etc. From this problem, human are considering world’s
problem as much as before. In addition, ten strategies, they aim to encourage
designer to take and give an idea of sustainable into most important
consideration for help and save environment as soon as possible.
In this semester, 2nd years in BA Textile design
course, we had made own project is Good vibration: colour project. This project
we need to created own colour palette and explore to this project. I was really
worked hard with my work in screen-printing and dyeing process. As a result, I
was able to directly incorporate developed my new knowledge during the
development stage of project. I able to apply my ideas that were discuss with
other audience. During this project, first
I was thinking how to combine between minimize waste, cyclability to my
own design together. So I stared to researched about material and some art’s
work that focused on craft maker. From this result, I decided create my project
as a series of material by use some of material from human waste such as
plastic and PVC which made by dyed PVC, printed, heat transferred neoprene and
PVC. Moreover, Ted’s ten is so insightful and going through the strategies to guide
me about sustainability that I had never considered those strategies before.
Once, in the lectures, I descript my recent project to my course tutor Bridget,
she told me that maybe I can change some of material to natural material
instead of man made material. I agree with her advised. Throughout this
project, I found biggest problem was the chemical impact. When I dyed the fabric
or doing heat transfer which used hot atmosphere there impact with my material
by made bad chemical smell air which harmful to health. From this reason, I was
realize using natural and environmental material connected to reduce the waste
and chemical impacts could reduce this kind of harm and healthy for human than
using man-made material.
Furthermore, in the lecture class I have seen the important of
collaboration between designer and strategies. They created and shared the
strategies in the best way to understand sustainable and ideas together. They
are more powerful which push me to understand and interested with sustainable product.
Additionally, I hope that in fashion and textile industries could consider,
apply and develop Ted’s Ten to there product not only consider a future material
or innovative. The next step of my sustainable study, I will continue thinking
about a relationship between sustainability and textile design because I
realized there is not a single answer for sustainability but there need to
improve reflective thinking of them by practice.
