LINDA DEL ROSSO




TINTANTIFA

Rooted in Apulia, Italy, the “TintAntifa” natural dyeing workshop explored color through local plants, food scraps, wild materials, and everyday leftovers. Together we experimented with simple dyeing practices that transformed discarded resources into vibrant textiles, creating space for curiosity, exchange, and collective learning.

Developed in collaboration with La Cummari, a collective of young practitioners and researchers connecting ecological awareness with community building in Lecce, the workshop invited participants to reconnect with materials, landscapes, and shared knowledge through slow, hands-on making. 



Rather than sharing fixed recipes or perfect techniques, we embraced experimentation, intuition, and the beauty of learning together.
