botanical dyes
& ecoprint
Ecoprint is a process involving plants, metals, fabric, and steam. Plant material bundled in cloth is steamed or boiled to release the dye found naturally inside the plant, creating a contact print. I combine ecoprint with traditional natural dye methods, using roots, barks, berries or flowers (picked in rural and urban areas across Europe), as well as iron, aluminium, copper and wax.
