Ágatas: criação de estampa para vestuário feminino

Abstract

The agates, precious stones found in Rio Grande do Sul and all around the world, are the reference to the creation of prints for coverups. The printing method chosen was the digital print, which is a brand new method that suits perfectly to small amounts of fabric, where the computer can be used without color restriction. Two methodologies were used in order to develop this paper: Deigraf, proposed by the professor Dr. Carlos Gustavo Hoelzel and the Ciclo Expansivo, described by professor Dr. Marinês Ribeiro dos Santos. Both were very important to go through the project since some steps had to be reviewed – which is the proposal of their methodologies. The resulting prints refer to the agates without being too literal. The cover-ups were created inspired by the prints, since shape and prints could relate.
