Argentinean textile designer who runs a research focused Natural Dyeing Studio in Amsterdam that is concentrated on learning, sharing and exchanging information about the diversity of local plant species and their available colorants. Since 2016 I have been working closely in collaboration with 'Painting Plants' together with artist and biologist Naan Rijks, where we cultivate a dye garden: researching, growing specific plants and testing different ways of colorant extractions which is then shared with a broader audience through seminars and workshops and on our websites. As a natural dyer and educator I have worked with: universities, art academies, fashion designers, biologists and artists exploring, preparing and producing plant colorants for dyeing, inks and paints.
