About Blue Ants Bailiúchán Éadaí

Is bailiúchán éadaí é Blue Ants atá déanta as seanbhaill éadaigh athraithe. Tógtar na fabraicí dúghorma as forbhrístí gorma oibre, agus tá na patrúin mhaisiúla bunaithe ar stampaí bia stairiúla. Táirgtear na priontaí le grianghrafadóireacht chianaitíopa, ina nglacann solas na gréine áit meaisín priontála. Tugann gearradh léasair éifeacht dhéthoiseach agus thríthoiseach don fhabraic a leanann cuair an choirp. Tá scáthchruth clasaiceach an fhorbhríste casta agus ceangailte. Tairgtear an bailiúchán i méideanna inathraithe.

Production Technology
All the redesigned dark blue fabrics in this project come from the old blue overalls during the Cultural Revolution. In addition, this project also used food stamps that were exclusive during the Cultural Revolution period to develop my design because the patterns and curves on them to be quite beautiful and attractive. Moreover,the laser-cut fabric has both a two-dimensional and three-dimensional transformation effect that follows the undulations and curves of the body.
In addition, in order to restore the sense of time during the Cultural Revolution and maintain the concept of sustainability, the prints in the Blue ants are all done using cyanotype photography. The traditional printing machine is replaced by sunlight to produce a unique printing and dyeing effect.
Design Challenge
Laser cutting was the hardest part of this project as it is challenging to find a suitable fabric. Because some fabrics are too soft to reveal the cut graphics, while others are too hard to make clothes.
Research
This project was integrated the printing methods of visual communication design, cyanotype photography, and other techniques to complete my fabrics. The project also used a projector to assist me in the design of the silhouette. The designer intended to twist and bind the classic silhouette of blue overallsto disrupt the Cultural Revolution when everyone wore the same clothing.
Inspiration
Blue ants, was inspired by the famous historical event in China, the "Cultural Revolution". During this decade, people regardless of gender and age, completely spontaneously wore uniform blue overalls, so they were called “blue ants” by people in other countries. During this decade, clothing no longer only has the function of keeping warm, but has completely become a political tools of fanaticism and blind obedience.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2022 in Jinan,China and finished in November 2022 in Jinan,China.
Operation Flow
The laser-cut fabric has both a two-dimensional and three-dimensional translation effect that follows the undulations and curves of the body.
