Now Cancelled due to Weather  Embellish and Eco Pr

I amecowott nature's imprintor Wendi Trulson the “eco” refers to the environmental integrity of my arts practice and the” wott” is acronym for Wendi of the Treasure, a name from my childhood. I now live and work in the surrounds of Lamington Plateau, foraging my own backyard for leaves and inspiration. As I work with a natural dye process that is ecologically sound and keeps the environment and its user’s safe, my concerns about the infinite use of resources is very important to me and I wish to encourage others to think about the fabric they wear and consume. With my art practice, I am exploring the possibility of the reuse and renewing of textiles from the discards of society into usable art.
