CLOTHING THAT HEALS

This project was to highlight the creative synergy of ancient indigenous knowledge in textiles to create for our modern aesthetics and times.

@7weaves Eri Silk Fabric is cruelty- free, hand spun, hand woven and forest dyed by indigenous forest communities in the Indo- Burmese ecological region. All processes are done by hand without the use of toxic chemicals, instead involving time, patience and expert traditional methods.

Colours by Mother Nature, dried in sunlight using sustainable, regenerative plants including leaves, seeds, roots and vines that can be re-planted on forest land avoiding any materials that cause harm.

As we learn and know better, we should act and do better.

Indigenous communities need income that protects and utilises traditional land to create a live and work balance that nurtures and protects their native environment.
