A estamparia têxtil na moda praia: a mensagem de preservação ecológica das tartarugas marinhas aplicadas em biquínis

Abstract

This research aimed at accomplishing a new proposal on textile printworks from references obtained through a bibliographical research about the TAMAR (“work on the Sea Turtles Research and Protection”) project. This thematic was studied to be applied in clothing, bikinis, with the function to transmit a visual message of ecological preservation. To achieve the aim of this research, the work was divided into five chapters, where the first chapter (Theoretical fundamentals and the application process in the textile field) makes a data survey about the design as an activity and a general summary of textile design. The second chapter (The study from referential to product) presents data to a better understanding of the TAMAR project and a brief history of the bikini. The third chapter (Methodology) applies two different methodologies to the project development, the Research Methodology which makes a qualitative approach of the investigation and, the Projectual Methodology where Bonsiepe presents several types of analysis in the field of design. In the fourth chapter (Creative Process), we make a record of the artistic creation processes and, in the fifth chapter (Results and Discussion) we have the final resulting pieces developed throughout the research along the whole work.
