Presented in partnership with the Department of Visual Arts, Western University
In conjunction with her exhibition, Lauren Chipeur will guide a workshop on natural dyeing with onion skins. Participants are asked to bring a natural fibre material (fabric, clothing, paper etc) to dip into the dye bath.
note from Lauren: If you want to bring a synthetic or partially synthetic textile material I am happy to experiment but cannot guarantee it will work.
Participation is limited. Please contact info@forestcitygallery.com to confirm your attendance.
