Tip-off from Dwell
http://www.dwell.com/
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. The Hive Gallery, 301 Jefferson St., OaklandJessica Cadkin
