this week i had the loveliest time sharing my venice biennale fellowship experience and running a workshop with oak dyes from Epping Forest. after looking at the history of iron gall ink and how it has been used since the medieval times to record documents, music and drawings, i created an adapted recipe. we used three dyes, oak bark, acorn ink and gall ink using an iron modifier to darken the colours. thank you to everyone who participated and the lovely crafts council for having me <3 @young.craft.citizens | @craftscouncil | @wcceurope
i’ll be sharing my venice biennale fellowship experience with a natural dye workshop at the Crafts Council Gallery next week! If you are a YCC member, signup and i’ll see ya there <3 so grateful for this opportunity and I hope to share some of this magic ⭐️🌱 with big thank yous to @labiennale | @britishcouncil | @young.craft.citizens | @craftscouncil | @wcceurope for all your support
