Tim and Kathleen Harding
The artist/design team of Tim and Kathleen Harding are represented in
several museums, including the Smithsonian Design Collection at the
Cooper-Hewitt Museum, as well as celebrity collections including those
of Diana Ross, Carly Simon, Wynona Judd and the late Jim Henson. They
are featured in the definitive book ART TO WEAR by Julie Schafler Dale.
Tim Harding employs a painterly technique developed by the
Impressionists to create incredibly rich colorations, burnished
metallic neutrals, iridescent jewel-tones, and deep saturated hues.
Multi-layered, densely quilted and hand cut, Harding's art to wear is
carefully crafted using a yarn dyed and hand loomed dupioni shantung
silk from India.
