The Colours of the Earth

For fifteen years, dyeing workshops were organized with weavers from thirty Indigenous communities in Oaxaca and Chiapas, Mexico. During this period, traditional dyeing techniques were revitalized, and new methods were introduced.

The knowledge of natural dyes transcended community boundaries, creating a space where art serves as a vehicle for cultural identity and collective expression. The vibrant colours of the woven textiles in this exhibition reflect years of research, collaboration, exchange, and experimentation.
