Ecoprint your own wall tapestry.
Discover the beauty of eco-printing and create your own botanical wall tapestry ~ a unique symmetrical textile artwork for your home.
Workshop Content:
During this 4–5 hour workshop at Makers, Annastasia from Atelier Nachtvlinder will teach you the art of eco-printing on linen. She will guide you step-by-step in creating a unique wall hanging that you can take home afterwards.
In this in-depth session, we will experiment with the intensity of natural pigments and work with natural modifiers such as alum, iron, and vinegar. You will discover how different plants react to natural fibers and how to deepen or subtly shift colors.
In addition to the practical process, we will delve into the origins of the plants we work with. Through storytelling, collaborative research, and sharing knowledge within the group, a rich, shared learning experience is created. Each participant creates one large linen wall textile (70 x 150 cm), finished with a wooden hanging rod with pre-drilled screws.
At home, you only need two hooks to hang your work yourself.
