Family Meals: A Color Story
| Flora T. Little Art Gallery August Artist | |
 |
Korie Ellis is a Natural Dyer based in New Bedford, MA. She has spent her last few years diving into the realm of creating natural color on textiles derived from kitchen scraps, flowers, and plant matter. Most of the materials used are scraps she cooks with, dye plants grown in her garden, or plant donations that friends and family leave on her doorstep. Her education consists of experimentation, reading books on natural dyes, and taking workshops from other dyers. With the ideology of "make of the most of what's around" she focuses much of her dyeing on using what is typically found to be waste, and transforming it into color that lasts through proper pretreatment and the intersection of art and science. Textiles provide her a way of documenting color as moments in time, preserving a special memory, and honoring the aging process that connects us to the natural world.
