Gathered Collors

After completing my warp painting, I became interested in gathering dye plants to create a piece that would document my passage through a place. For this project, I decided to weave of short strips (5' by 6.5') of cloth with the warp mordented while the weft is not. After gathering dye plants, I will use each plant to dye a different woven cloth. This exploration will  help explore different dye plants that grow around Nova Scotia as well as create a visual road map of my journey.
