Plant Dyes and Natural Fiber Textiles

A set of plant-dyed or undyed warm earth-toned textiles. The colors are derived from plant dyes: madder's rusty red, yam's reddish-brown, onion skin's earthy yellow, or the completely undyed natural linen beige. The dyeing is uneven, with gradients of light and dark and subtle mottling; the fabric is coarse-woven linen and cotton, with visible yarns and weave patterns. The edges are hand-stitched or simply machine-hemmed. Avoid: using uniformly bright colors from chemical dyes, using smooth synthetic fibers and silk, adding prints and patterns, making the fabric appear thin and glossy.

一組植物染或未染色的大地暖調織品。顏色是植物染出來的:茜草的鏽紅、薯榔的赭褐、洋蔥皮的土黃,或是完全未染的原麻米色。染色不均勻,有深淺的漸層與細微的斑駁;布是粗織的麻與棉,看得見紗線與織紋。邊緣是手縫或簡單車邊。避免:使用化學染的均勻鮮豔顏色、使用光滑的化纖與絲質、加入印花與圖案、讓布看起來輕薄有光澤。
