Workshop: Creating Herbal Dyes with Julia Krupa
March 26 @ 5:30 pm – 7:15 pm
Artist Julia Krupa creates large-scale paintings with herbs and other plants she forages from rural Poland, where she is based. She is visiting Boston as one of the four artists in A Sentient Land: Artistic Alliances with Forests, Beetles, Salt, and Air. Learn how Julia makes dyes with plants, along with her doctoral research informing this process. A fascinating part of her process involves interviewing elder herbalists based in the Carpathian region of Southern Poland. Her field work and research evolves into paintings and innovative, panoramic video documentation, both of which are on view in the space where the workshop takes place.
