About the Workshop:
This in-person workshop is taught by Rhonda Khalifeh.
Indigotin, or indigo, is a natural pigment sourced from indigofera plants to create a range of blue dyes. In this workshop, students will be introduced to all things indigo - the pigment, its history, and contemporary dye vat preparation. After learning how to create a fruit sugar indigo vat, students will hand-dye various papers and their own silk handkerchief. Material safety, fiber preparation, and vat maintenance will also be covered. Students are welcome to bring small handmade papers or light colored fabric for further experimentation. Anyone looking to discover the incredible potential of organic indigo dye should come to this class with an attitude of exploration.
Fun Fact: Prior to the discovery of synthetic blue and chemical dyes in the 19th century, indigo was the only viable source available for creating a lasting blue color.
