I would like relevant cultural institutions around the island to have copies of these zines in their libraries for consultation. Who do you think should have copies? Let me know, please! 🙏🏽

They are very much related to the work I have been doing with Fibreshed Ireland over the past 3 years.

Paper and digital copies of these are available to purchase from my website. The paper copies were riso printed in Baile Átha Cliath by Way Bad Press 🖨️

✨ Flax zines/posters! ✨

The last pieces I want to show you from the InterWOVEN exhibition are this series of zines/posters. Each of them represents relationships, knowledge, and invitations related to the history and resurgence of flax in Ireland.

Another piece I had the privilege to make for and exhibit at the ‘InterWOVEN’ group show. This is made of wild clay from the Poulaphouca reservoir and flax from my garden and from Mallon Linen farm. It shows the interconnected relationship us humans have with the flax plant, Linum usitatissimum 🩵

Me too! 🫣

The crossover I didn’t know I needed!

And I hope to see you on Monday 😉

So, can you match the plants in the image to colour they produce?

You can either take a screenshot and draw the lines matching the colour with its source or simply write down a list of the numbers and letters you think go together. The first correct guess will win a surprise! 🎁
