As part of an unofficial partnership with the Art School Weißensee several students had the opportunity to work with the knitting machines for their foundation course in May and had a lot of fun. Some came back a second time to make several pieces.
Mariko was knitting with cotton and monofilament
Pamina grew her own mold with yoghurt on a glas pane to then photograph it and mirror it to create her unique pattern. She wanted to knit a carpet, a carpet of mold…
Pamina´s first sample
Pamina´s second carpet
I really love the floats on this one…
We chose 2 different colours for each yarn position (in the sinker plate position A+B) to give the impression of more than 2 colours being used, pariticularily the velevety rose contributes to the idea of mold…
Lisa was fascinated with optical illusions…choosing red and turquoise was a eye popping!
More pics ain the next post about the “Rundgang” of the Art School Weißensee (open house days)…
