Event Details
Learn about the process of creating and printing with plant-based inks on fabric.
With recipes and tips from the arts research collective Biomaterials Working Group (BWG), explore the use of pigments from locally foraged plants and seaweed to create natural screenprinting inks and emulsion. This workshop includes an artist talk, discussion of bioethics and waste studies, and a hands-on introduction to sustainable printing materials. Using prepared imagery from BWG, apply your new skills by printing on a cotton bandana.
Nescafé will be served and also used as one of the printing materials!
