rust on linen and cotton
For several years I’ve experimented with different materials - dyeing, printing, rusting, stitching - just to see what’s possible. As I learn new things I combine them to get more depth and texture. The grayish fabric underneath was dyed with acorns and then modified with iron to deepen the color. The fabric on top was folded then rusted.
