The magical art of Flower Pounding
August 31 @ 10:30am
Experience the magical art of flower pounding. Using fresh dye flowers, including cosmos, coreopsis, marigold, and pincushion, children will learn the gentle technique of transferring vibrant colors from the garden onto pre-treated cloth, resulting in unique and beautiful creations. Students will be invited to create a carefully designed pattern or wild improvisation, following their own personal response to nature’s inspiration. Instruction will include discussion surrounding why certain flowers yield permanent dye, and how fabric can be pre-treated to boost vibrance and ensure lasting results.
Additionally, homage will be paid to the Japanese roots of this satisfying art form, known as Tataki Zome. Come and create in collaboration with mother earth.
Free to all, registration strongly encouraged to allow instructor for material preparation.
