A single piece of bull kelp takes centre stage, leaving behind a broad, ghostly impression against layers of smoky blue and grey. Collected from the shoreline around Binalong Bay, its shape becomes almost figurative once transferred onto the silk.
The unpredictable nature of the process means this piece cannot be recreated.
This is a one-of-one original textile artwork.

Bundle dyeing is a slow, hands-on process where natural materials such as seaweed and leaves are wrapped into fabric and gently steamed or submerged in dye, leaving behind soft, unpredictable traces of their natural colour and shape.
