Discover natural colors - print, mix, marvel!
Overview
Intro
Discover the secrets of printing and coloring with natural dyes
We dip paintbrushes into flowers, mix colors from soil and print nature on paper and textiles together! The joy of trying things out and the desire to experiment. An interactive, lively day on which we discover the diversity of color extraction through exchange and joint action.
The secrets of color are revealed in the deep layers of nature, where we experience the living vibrations of nature by dyeing with plants and extracting ink from their leaves and flowers. Each pigment carries a story and a spiritual essence that is closely interwoven with the essence of the plant. When making and using earth pigments, we feel the ancient powers of the soil and experience a close connection with nature, where the boundaries between us and our natural environment become blurred. In these precious moments of creative work, we feel at one with the universal flow of life.
The dye plants we use for this grow on our doorstep: Birch leaves, oak bark, roses, walnut trees and many, many more. Bring your own personal regional potpourri in a bouquet to experiment with!
The focus is on experimenting and trying things out for yourself. The day is planned to be interactive and dynamic through sharing and working together. You will get to know different techniques and methods. On the day, we will actively create a surprise bag full of colorful surprises in a trusting atmosphere for a balsamic time together.
Like creative, colorful quick-change artists, we will bring natural colors to life. At the end of the day, you should be filled with colorful pictures, a backpack full of ideas, nourished by the impulses and the intensive exchange. Learn to appreciate the value of making colors yourself again. Let's rediscover old knowledge together and pass it on.
For the main course from the open fire, bring a vegetarian contribution for the shared lunch buffet and enjoy the day with all your colorful senses.
