Catalpa Leaves

Authors: ,

Abstract

The asymmetrical skirt and handwoven top are part of a design series with the overarching purpose to explore natural dyes from trees as well as taking inspiration from their color and texture. The particular aims of this design were to investigate tree leaves bundled and steamed on fabric and to experiment with thickened dyewoods painted onto yarn to create gradients.
