I would like to map the area arround where I live in Oberweimar/Ehringsdorf for Endophytes and see how the shapes and colors could be a source of inspiration for the work with fabric, yarn and textile materials. I would like to explore the themes of these unseen biological systems and find a connection that could enhance my work with fabrics and change my point of view, also in terms of organic and reusable material or biomaterials: | I would like to map the area arround where I live in Oberweimar/Ehringsdorf for Endophytes and see how the shapes and colors could be a source of inspiration for the work with fabric, yarn and textile materials.

'''Patterns | '''Patterns''' | ||
The intricate patterns created by endophytic growth within plant tissues can inspire to create similar patterns, perhaps using weaving, knotting, or embroidery techniques. | |||
'''Color | '''''Colony formation: '''''Endophytes can form distinct colonies on the agar surface, each with a characteristic shape, size, and color. | ||
'''''Zone of inhibition:''''' Endophytes can produce compounds that inhibit the growth of other microorganisms, creating a clear zone around the endophyte colony. | |||
'''''Spread patterns:''''' Endophytes can spread out from the initial point of inoculation, creating a circular or radial pattern of growth. | |||
'''''Mixed culture patterns:''''' Endophytes can co-exist and interact with other microorganisms in the culture, creating complex and dynamic patterns of growth. | |||
'''Color''' | |||
Endophytic organisms can add color to their host plants, one can use these colors as inspiration perhaps by dyeing or printing fabrics with natural pigments. | |||
'''Texture:''' The textures created by endophytic growth can be used as inspiration for the creation of similar textures through the use of different fabrics, fibers, or stitching techniques. | '''Texture:''' The textures created by endophytic growth can be used as inspiration for the creation of similar textures through the use of different fabrics, fibers, or stitching techniques. | ||
This artistic study could be the basis for greater Project with fabric. | This artistic study could be the basis for greater Project with fabric. |
