wearable origami

wearable origami by Tina de Ruysser

Last week I took (again) part in a two day course in studio Zijdelings, Center for Textile and Surface Design, Tilburg. 

It was an interesting 3D-textiles course on wearable origami techniques by Belgium based visual artist Dr Tine De Ryusser.

Tine's first degree at the Royal Academy of Fine Art in Antwerp taught her jewellery techniques. She then went on to the Royal College of Art in London for her MA. There she invented an innovative folding material: a combination of metal and textiles. Her PhD-research was a further development of the material. She investigated production methods and folding patterns as well as the design possibilities for wearables. Tina teaches at Lincoln University and as a visiting lecturer at a range of colleges.
