During the Kinetica weekend we had to put together the structure of the the sail's which will be carried along with the school group. The fabric was then to be taken away by my school and decorated. My School designed there own sail. Using my colours Orange, green and purple. The textile process used for these sails was Batik (A Resist technique using hot ,melted wax then painted with Procion dyes mixed with soda ash, excess dye washed off, to be left with a bright, colourful and waterproof sail-well the dyes won't run) I think the colours are great, even though it is based on an Octopus- not the Firefish I don't think it matters too much as the colours work really well with my costumes.
