ABOUT THE PROCESS:
Our practice is process led, with each piece involving hours of preparation, sewing, creation, boiling, curing, and finishing. As the work emerges to be unbundled from the cauldron, we observe how the prints revealed in the fabric reflect our world and experiences. Each piece stands as a symbolic representation of our relationship and exchange with the natural living world.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
This piece needs to be cared for as you would care for yourself or any other living organism. They are imprinted with living colour that morphiates and changes as you engage with it. The PH of your water or the detergent you use will alter and change the colour pallet, and allow this piece to change with you.
Only wash it when it feels dirty, wash in gently in cold water.
Don’t use nasty chemicals, keep it natural.
Dry it in the shade and mend it if it needs repairs.
We do offer re-dyes/repairs if you decided years later you want it to be refreshed.
The fabric holds memory so it's always beautiful to cleanse and re-energise it with new seasonal energy.
