The Thai Textiles Project was an international partnership between the Royal College of Art (RCA) and Thammasat University, Thailand. Dr Oakley, the Principal Investigator, collaborated with Co-Investigator Dr Wuthigrai Siriphon, who has a PhD and an MA in Textiles from RCA. The project studied, experimented and created textiles made using sustainable fibre and natural dyes locally sourced in Thailand. The samples on display were created as part of the Thai Textiles project, which was funded through the Global Challenges Research Fund and RCA Research & Innovation. The materials for the textile sample collection were woven on hand looms at Thammasat University’s textile workshops, using sustainably sourced cotton, hemp, and silk. The yarns were either undyed or had previously been dyed using regionally available dyestuffs: Cassia fistula fruit, Garcinia dulcis bark, indigo, lac, Maclura cochinchinesis heartwood, mango leaves and bark, mangosteen peel, Senna siamea, or combinations of these. The exhibition is an example of international collaborative research in the area of sustainable design and material study.
