Indigo Spell is a nomadic indigo dye vat amassing visions for our shared world. In this community collaboration, participants become familiar with the steps and nuance of creating a indigo sugar dye vat while meditating on what personal and collective transformation they desire to bring forth in our shared world. The insights are written on small flags, charging the vat these intentions, witnessing the transformation of color as a symbol of personal and collective transmutation. Individuals keep their talisman of personal metamorphosis, while the prayer flags for the collective continue on with the project. Participants are encouraged to bring a few items of used clothing/textiles to charge in the vat while experimenting with dye, folding, and tie techniques, breathing new life into apparel, consciously and creatively rebelling against the capitalist driven, environmentally destructive culture of fast fashion.

Continually fascinated with the alchemy of nature’s palette and the meditative quality of working with textiles and natural dyes, it is my passion to facilitate creative community building workshops and pop up events.
