module 2: print

Module 2 offers you a chance to deepen your connection to your materials by foraging for local dye plants to use in unique fabric and paper eco prints. In this second 4 week course you’re given more opportunities to step away from technology as you get outside and discover the wide variety of amazing plants that can be used for their colour, shape and texture.

By foraging in your local environment and discovering new uses for plants you may have previously walked past, you’ll increase your sense of reverence for nature and will bring your previous learning to life by developing your knowledge and ability to safely identify your local flora.

You’ll discover the secret to crisp, clear and colourful eco prints whilst embracing the serendipity of co-creating with nature. There’s nothing quite like the excitement and anticipation you’ll feel whilst unwrapping your first magical bundle of leaves and fabric or the awe when you realise you just recorded a flower's unique imprint onto cloth.

As part of our private Facebook community of international students, you’ll have a network of friends to support and inspire you. Together, we can raise both standards and awareness of sustainable colour, making a real difference to the health and wellbeing of ourselves and the planet.

You'll experience not only the pure joy of finding hidden colour treasures within plants but also the therapeutic benefits of co-creating a fabric memory of nature.
