Botanical: a contemporary approach to Natural Dyeing. Textile Exhibition

HATCH

A celebration of natural dye, gardens and the contribution made by the communities of Kirkburton Parish. Textiles, music and connection.

All Hallows Church, Kirkburton

Please come and join us as we celebrate the Growing Colour Together project as part of the WOVEN 23 festival and the communities of the Kirkburton Parish. With a contemporary approach to natural dyed textiles, you can observe the large-scale installation Modified made by artists Seiko Kinoshita &amp; Nicola Perren, engage with the design collection with contributions from local makers, listen to music and go on a walk through the grounds to the newly created church community garden.This is a creative response to a long-term call to turn areas of Kirklees into Natural Colour Gardens. Over the previous months, workshops have worked with members of the Kirkburton community to learn about such an approach to gardening, how to dye textiles with natural materials and how we might utilise mending of textiles to develop more sustainable practices when it comes to our wardrobes and soft furnishings.

Growing Colour Together is more than a project, it’s a MOVEMENT! And our ambition is to create a district-wide, natural-dye, colour garden!We want to give everyone the opportunity to ‘have a grow,’ use what’s grown to make natural dyes, and learn about the environmental implications of chemical dyes and what we buy.Growing Colour Together is an evolving project and we want people to join in with the areas that interest you to grow, make, create and debate.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXhG8Lxe7pY" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">WOVEN Growing Colour Together Project Film</a>
