- Abstract
The paper contextualizes history, the affirmation and the professionalization of the vocation of a costume designer through the prism of student practical work and knowledge transfer while working on a large theatre project Orpheus and Eurydice, carried out jointly by four faculties within the University of Zagreb. It offers an analysis of the mentor-student knowledge transfer and vice versa, as well as a comprehensive overview of student work, largely inspired by the Bauhaus school of art. The paper demonstrates the successful outcome of the collaboration between the mentor and the students reflected in a unique imprint on the whole body of costumes, which looked as if they had been created by a single designer. This is an example of original visual qualities and the excellent workmanship demonstrated by the students in creating costumes adjusted to the requirements of the performance and made in the tailoring, painting and sculpturing workshops (established specially for this purpose) within the Faculty of Textile Technology. A liberal approach on the part of the mentor in the form of mutual knowledge transfer - in which a mentor transfers to the students the knowledge gained through the education system, as well as through life-long practical work, while students, with their fresh approach and youthful innovation, transfer their enthusiasm to the teacher/mentor - led to the creation of costumes whose authors were the costume students, while the teacher/mentor expanded her knowledge and her creative limits through collaboration with students while creating the visual imprint of the opera production. The project received two Rector's Awards and was selected for the Prague Quadrennial (PQ 2015) as part of the Croatian national student selection. The Graduate Programme in Costume Design at the Faculty of Textile Technology has justified its existence under the auspices of this institution, where students are offered an opportunity to get both theoretical and practical training at art, textile and technology workshops dedicated to costume making and organized by the Faculty of Textile Technology within the inter-faculty collaboration at the University of Zagreb aimed at creating a stage production.
