Artist + Natural Plant Dyer Natalie Stopka Book Signing & Demo
Join us on May 13th, 2pm-4pm and step into a world where art, science, and nature converge at the Dennis Conservation Land Trust and celebrate the launch of the book From Plant to Pigment with author and textile artist Natalie Stopka.
Natalie will kick off her talk with a demo making invasive buckthorn into a usable pigment + a book talk and signing that will make you rethink where color comes from while also shining a light on the vital role of water and plants in conservation.
In addition to the demo and talk, Natalie will introduce us to her traveling archive of over 200 hand-crafted plant pigments from sources you won’t believe! Each hue tells a story of transformation: from wild-foraged plants to radiant inks, paints, and pastels, and reveals the delicate balance between natural materials and the environments they come from.
