Ethical Making

Experiment

Α fabric I created from merino wool and bamboo fiber using the wet felting method using green soap and water. The second process is also ecological printing (eco printing) with the dirty pot method, i.e. boiling in an aluminum cauldron with rust, eucalyptus leaves and vinegar. Three types of eucalyptus leaves were used in the printing. Showcase piece exhibited in Thessaloniki.
