Zoran Dobric  Spring Summer 2017 “Threads”

 

Working with scanned tangled threads was the starting point for the collection.  Original textile prints were developed from these scans by the designer, “liquified” in the computer,  and digitally printed on silks and microfibre.  A stlyized image of the threads is represented in laser-cut black glitter prints and plexiglass jewelry.  The idea of internal structure was explored through construction with metal gromets and rings, and innovative techniques such as chenilling and hand weaving.   An artistic palette is created by contrasting rich textures and sculptural shapes against flowy silhouettes and liquidy prints.  Shades of nude, grey, and black add to the sensuality of the effortlessly elegant pieces.
