A toy art como referencial para estamparia de vestuário infantil

Abstract

With the Toy Art theme, this research addresses the development of a collection of patterns directed to the textile surface, with the aim of application in children's clothing. Toy Art is considered a new form of expression that appropriates itself of the toy as a way of reflection and that has a visual language of its own, bringing to the textile surface design a new approach regarding the creation of patterns. The prototypes that were developed (fabrics and pieces made) present patterns localized and in a row. The project serves a qualitative approach and makes use of data collection instruments and data analysis and experimentation in digital and manual media; the prototypes implementation was accomplished by printing on fabric using a transfer. The objective was the recognition of the aesthetic qualities of the chosen subject through the seizure of the processes of surface design and printmaking, its methods and technical procedures.
