Arts and crafts students workshop

Drawing on my experience as a design degree teacher, I'll be able to build a dynamic program in line with the needs of the section. Dye plants and their applications are versatile!

Exemples :

Vernacular graphics: Graphic surveys of a place and harvesting, making inks from harvested plants, silk-screen printing on various media to be defined according to demand or educational needs (posters, flags, fanzines, etc.).

Vernacular object design : Graphic surveys of a place and gathering, making inks from harvested plants, gathering materials. Manufacture of small wooden objects.

Design Textil : Up-cycling of textiles or clothing, using local dye resources (accessories, costumes, banners, etc.), introduction to vegetable dyeing and screen printing.

Example: dyeing a textile banner or flag using local plants or kitchen scraps, making paint and drawing using plant inks, ....
