How do we integrate into textiles the colors observed in the territory? This will be a gathering to extract, cook, squeeze and create with the colors of the earth, flowers, plants and other elements of nature that make sustainable dyeing possible.
During this workshop, we will explore three basic botanical dyeing techniques with plants: immersion baths, contact dyeing (tatakisome) and ecoprint; we will also experiment with fixing colors on textiles. Participants will be able to take home their creations: dyed fabrics and a tote bag with a floral print.
