Fat and the Moon Updates: Behind the Scenes of Our Herbal Journey
I'm back from my time away in the Catskills where I was doing an artist residency at the Shandaken Project. It was a ball! Got down to work and soaked up the place. One of the projects I worked on while I was there is part of an ongoing project making medicinal sleeping clothing. At Shandaken, I dyed clothes for my fellow residents using the medicinal plants growing on the property.
I met with each artist and then dyed their clothing with plants mirroring their needs. Lucky for me, there was quite a selection of herbs, St John's Wort, yarrow, barberry, elder berry to name a few. Also got to make some medicinal undies! Thanks Stephen, Nick, Math and Alex!
