Wearable Art

dyed & printed

with plants.

What does that mean?

Silks, linens, and cottons are prepared in a mineral bath, then botanicals are hand-placed to create patterns. The fabric is rolled and tied, then steamed/simmered for hours. When the bundle is removed and untied, the plants leave behind their colour!

Jane Jacobs is a Canadian textile artist working with foraged botanicals and reclaimed natural materials.
