This collection is a study in color, a first dip into what will become a larger scale installation of weavings.
Seven Etherial Scarves, each representing a color of the rainbow. Yellow and Pink are both all naturally dyed. Yellow seems to be nearly the default color when natural dying. There are probably 20+ different plants and fungi that I used for this piece. The pinks were created with Cochineal and fermented Rock Tripe Lichen.
Below you will find a deep dive into details of each piece.
