LaserCutting



Again, experimenting with more fabrics until i found the best one. I only engraved into the paint covered cotton but cut through on the silky fabric, it work really well and has a very smooth finish. The paint covered fabric didnt really engrave, it marked the material in an unusual way though which was interesting.
Until this point, with laser cutting, i hadnt really considered colour for my symbol. Ancient Egyptians used vibrant, eye catching colours for all of their symbol work so i thought colours like this unusual vibrant yet dirty yellow, and previously patterned with print, blue fabric; were appropriate.
