'Meet The Artist' (No:31) | India Flint | Originator of the Ecoprint

Textile Artist, India Flint - author & the originator of the Ecoprint - chats about her sustainable and slow-stitched’ art work. India shares with us her ‘wandering daily stitch’ diary (her ‘river of cloth’) created with pre-loved textiles, botanical alchemy and stitch. The sound quality varies due to the nature of the exhibition space.
Each exhibition piece has been infused by place, marked by time and coloured with windfall leafs using ecologically sustainable plant dye methods. India produces a range of salvage clothing under the label ‘Prophet of Bloom' and has published several books explaining her processes - to find out more, see the links below. Filmed at The Festival of Quilts 2019.
