“Woven Air: Dhakai Jamdani Textile From Bangladesh,” is an
exhibition of traditional Bangladeshi textiles noted for a
weaving technique that creates surface decorations.
This exhibition features fine-count Jamdani, the ornate textile
that has experienced a revival in Bangladesh. Jamdani artisans
employ the same weaving techniques of two different thread
densities, with the denser wrap thread inlaid with the fine warp
thread to create tactile motifs and designs that are primarily
flowers.
The UC Davis Design Museum takes a bold step with the exhibition
“From Concept to Creation: Inspired Shoe Design by Chris
Francis,” which showcases the colorful and imaginative footwear
created by the Los Angeles-based shoe designer.
Mooving Forward is an undergraduate showcase
which highlights the breadth, talent, and diversity of
the Department of Design, as shown through the outstanding course
work produced over the past year by senior undergraduate
students.
