Indigo Shade Map is an educational online map and a space for cultural exchanges showing a variety of indigo plants and connecting indigo farmers, dyers, and hobbyists from various cultures in one place. Indigo is a metaphor for the cultural perspective and plays a pivotal role because it connects everyone on the map. In this session, indigo growers from three different locations will join and share their experiences with the environment, cultures, and languages. This session will also include an introduction to Doong-Ji (둥지), Online Exhibition about Natural Dyes, Cultures & Communities. This panel is part of the Baltimore Natural Dye Symposium of 2021. We are pleased to announce a series of events celebrating the relationships, community connections, and creative work we have valued and sustained during the instability of these times. As we are cast to places across the globe, we are reuniting in a series of symposium events to reconnect as we move forward. Last year at this time, we had to cancel our in-person symposium due to the pandemic. We hope this year, you can join us for a celebration of people, connections, and conversations to acknowledge and honor our relationships, and those who continue to tell the stories of natural dye. This event series is supported in part by the Maryland State Arts Council (msac.org) and organized by Rosa Chang, Eva Sailly, Anushka Jajodia, Audrey Naiva, and Kate McGrain.
