Today's visit to V&A with Dr. Clare was amazing. First, I have to show respect for her wide knowledge of Art and design history. I wonder if I knew those, it would be much much interesting being in museums!!! Anyway, the visit was about trade between East and West in textile and art works.
There were lots of textile works in the section and some of them had really interesting design. Even almost all of them were made in UK or India, they had lots of oriental elements in the design such as Japanese and Chinese pattern. For me, the design looked bit weird because those were not perfect Japanse or Chinese design, but interesting. It's alway good to mix these two countries senses in one design. It makes completely new pattern. And it was also good to know how the textile trading between india and west countries was growing up.
