LISA LICHTENFELS ~ Fabric Sculpture Techniques. Perhaps the oldest artistic medium of man-made material is fabric, yet, it is only recently that fabric figures have been produced with a high degree of realism.
This leap has been made possible by the modern technological marvel of nylon, an extremely moldable fabric which can be stretched to 8 or 9 times its sitting length, while still returning to its original size when released. The first time I saw the fabric used for anything other than clothing was during a presentation at the Philadelphia College of Art given by Judy Jampell. She worked like many 3-dimensional illustrators do today -- by creating a facade that could be manipulated from behind. This makes sense since the photograph is the final product for publication.
I was intrigued by the idea of wrapping the nylon completely around to create a free-standing sculpture and did that for the graduating competition. I would not trade the life I have had for anything. Adam Beane Industries, Inc. Portrait Sculptures, Figurative Sculpting Classes by Philippe Faraut. AnatomyTools.com.
