Floras Localis: Colour + Place

Floras Localis: Colour + Place brings together practitioners connected by a shared exploration of colour, materiality and place. Combining natural dyeing and circular design methodologies, the works develop hyper local palettes drawn directly from the Australian landscape through foraged, found, and reclaimed materials. 
The exhibition surveys how colour emerges from natural and urban environments. Revealing how natural hues can embody place and carry the narratives embedded within them. 
The resulting works offer new insights into current sustainable design methodologies and imagine future production possibilities. Unfolding as a series of textiles, ceramics, jewellery and vessels that trace the dialogue between design and site.
