The Hierarchy of Materials: New York
In this workshop, attendees learned how to make and use natural dyes from vegetables, about the historical use of dyeing textiles in pre-hispanic communities as well as participated in a guided poetry activity. Attendees walked away with their own handcrafted ‘painted poems’. Led by painter and sculptor Cesar Kastro and poet Daniel Tahoun, this workshop was aimed at educating the community about slow process natural dyeing and apoetical writing techniques.
