Tip-off from Dwell

Before the Industrial Revolution turned us onto synthetic blue pigments, artists and alchemists concocted the color using the woad plant. In this new exhibition at The Hive Gallery, four artists—-Ellen Fader, Judi Pettite, Miriam Fagan, and Jessica Serran—return to the source, exploring natural blue hues in their multi-media work with woad.
