Meteorite Dyes
The project explores the intersection of geology, ecology, and natural dye-making, led by Marit Mihklepp in collaboration with Greta Desirèe Facchinato. It focuses on soil and plants foraged from the Kärdla meteorite site in Estonia during Marit’s summer residency at Kordon Residency. With Greta’s expertise in foraging and natural ink-making, the duo created screenprinting inks from these materials. The resulting inks were used to print photographic and text-based images on paper, transforming the local stories of the meteorite site into visual narratives.
