Artist Statement My work is intuitive and process oriented. It begins by layering images on top of small stacks of patterned paper or cloth. These images consist of drawings or photographs of organic, natural objects that I have drawn or photographed and then printed. With a sewing machine, I sew through all the layers in stacks using the lines that I find interesting on the top image. Then I cut into the layered stacks to reveal the new images from all of the new juxtapositions and associations as they reveal themselves during the cutting process. I intuitively search for the beauty within these layered stacks knowing that I cannot make mistakes or make repairs, and knowing each piece has an infinite number of permutations and combinations.

This thesis describes the educational system in the Czech Republic. It focuses on project teaching focused on working with textiles. For teachers is being created didactic material, accompanied by a recommendation. The theoretical part describes the basic textile fibers, their characteristics, properties and uses. It also describes the different ways of producing linear and fabrics. More space is devoted to fabrics, including their relationships and analyzes. This is due to the possibility of the use and availability of fabrics for the creative work of pupils in the classroom. Annex works are worksheets and instructions for students.
