Description
A fabric swatch from the archive of Angelos Tsakiris, part of a small-scale collection presented in 2017, inspired by the works of Spanish painter Joan Miró. The fabric is hand-painted silk taffeta, meticulously processed to achieve a softer texture. The painting process involved initial pencil sketching on stretched fabric, followed by the application of two to three layers of color. Once dried and pressed, the fabric was assembled into a garment
