bangalore, you're crazy.
we're hosting this on 17th oct, saturday.
we'll spend an evening exploring real swatches, block printing w indigo, and focused research hours to go down the historic rabbit hole.
think: a farmers’ revolt before champaran, a bengal crop in your jeans, why its name means “from india”, and whether india still grows it at all.
leading the sesh:
- mamatha, textile eng & assoc. prof, pearl academy
- vaishnavi, curator & asst. prof, pearl academy. ex-MAP
go down the rabbit hole w us.
dyeing to know
indigo edition🪻
thinking of hosting a nerdy evening in bangalore around a dye and textile.
hint: it's also a crop. farmers revolted over it, an empire got rich off it, and a lab in germany killed the trade.
you'll be in pairs, going down a rabbit hole together and debating your findings over food.
would you be game?
