Sidewall, Tie-Dye
This is a sidewall. It was designed by Barbara White. It is dated 1958 and we acquired it in 2000. Its medium is hand-dyed and folded japanese paper. It is a part of the Wallcoverings department.
Created with Japanese paper and water-soluble inks, White executed most of her designs by adding moisture to the ink, folding the paper, and squeezing to distribute and blend the colors. The ancient technique of tie-dyeing gained popularity in the West in the 1960s and 1970s, when it was associated with the hippie movement.
