Tracing Colour with Tea: A Gentle Introduction to Tea Dyeing
At once simple and sensory, it transforms a cup of tea into a moment of colour, memory, and slow creation.
HereThe Tea-Dye Workshop
Date: 17 August 2025
Location: Yi Crafts Studio, Neasden, London
For our soft launch, we gathered around a shared table of tea, incense, and fabric.
Participants experienced tea-dyeing mini sessions, transforming oolong and osmanthus infusions into colour on cloth.
Each piece carried the marks of chance, touch, and time — small traces of embodied storytelling.
Between sips of tea and quiet conversations, the workshop unfolded as an exploration of neurodiverse perception through scent, texture, and pigment.
These handmade fabrics now join the Garden of Senses archive, as intimate records of care, creativity, and community.
