LOCATION: Shell Space, 8 McIver St, Brunswick
TIME: 6.30pm - 9.00pm
Join us for a vibrant, hands-on journey into the world of natural dyes in this immersive 2-hour workshop, held in the magical, light-filled Shell Space — a nurturing, creative environment designed to spark curiosity and connection.
Come, play, and experiment with the incredible variety of colour found in nature. Using plant materials like eucalyptus leaves, food waste, flowers, and natural extracts, you'll discover how to coax colour from nature and apply it to natural fibres through a range of engaging techniques. Followed by an explorative fashion art performance by freeform dance painter Maya Irving. The work will come to life with Maya painting with plant-made dyes onto a live model wearing TOR label clothing.
Throughout the evening, you'll explore:
Eco-printing – Bundle and steam loose plant material directly onto a silk scarf (50x50cm) to create beautiful, organic imprints.
Natural colour – plants, flowers, leaves, food, design, layer and print on fibre blending earthy tones.
Performance art – working with movement through dance and expressive markings with natural dye colours – artist Maya Irving will perform her painting live onto TOR label clothing.
Whether you're new to natural dyeing or looking to experience something out of the ordinary, this workshop + performance art invites you to slow down, connect with nature, and enjoy the alchemy of colour in a magical setting.
Wine and refreshments provided.
