THE EFFICACY OF TRADITIONAL DYES: OSOGBO DYE AS A CASE STUDY

CHAPTER FIVE
5.1      SUMMARY
        In this Research project, it was observed that most textile students have little idea about the use of traditional dyes, most especially Osogbo dyes and its fabrics. There is a need for textile students to be trained by specialists and special programmes and rewards should also be organized by the government. Scholarships should be awarded to successful students.
On the other hand, it was observed that textile artists are not showing enough zeal by committing themselves to their work due to the expensive nature of the materials involved.
5.2      RECOMMENDATION
According to Barber (1991), textile and dyed fabrics is part of our everyday activity. It is recommended that efforts should be made by everyone to encourage textile activities in our different homes and the society at large. It is especially recommended that the government and art agencies formulate a programme that could be extended to the citizens.
Free textile awareness tours should also be sponsored by either the government or some rich individuals to promote textiles. Art awareness tours could also be organized and lectures be given to the entire public at large.
An establishment, probably called “HOME OF TEXTILES”, could be organized by the government to teach textiles and make the art very   Easy.
5.3      CONCLUSION
As stated earlier, over the years, textiles have played a vital role in the life of humans, and by so doing all human beings will get acquainted with the art piece. The introduction of dyed fabrics have made it so unique.
Thus, the various visuals of dyed fabrics used for this study have vividly shown the diverse ways in which both natural and Osogbo dyes can be used on fabrics and the uniqueness of the Osogbo dyes. 
It is hoped that this research will enlighten and encourage textile students and artists to effectively use the natural dye or the Oshogbo dyed fabric as a means of communication.
