My project aims to convey a natural, comfortable, and environmentally friendly aesthetic, drawing inspiration from nature's coloUrs and traditional Chinese medicine. Using natural plants and fabrics, I create sustainable and biodegradable fabric. The ancient dyeing technique I employ utilises the same materials as traditional Chinese medicine, allowing the fabric to have a healing effect. I've made objects out of this fabric that I can use in everyday life. In our fast-paced lives, plant dyeing offers a return to nature, providing peace, freedom, and healing in urban environments. This approach reflects a life attitude, respect for nature, and a commitment to environmental protection.
