In modern life, we humans stand far from our natural environment. We no longer know where our raw materials come from and have lost the connections with the material. However, those connections are essential for our bond with an object. We created the workshop "Dyeing with the Forest" from the concept of restoring the bond between people and their environment. During the workshop, families with young children are introduced to the natural dyeing process. For this process, they look for the raw materials that the forest provides.
