Rose Family Factory (II)

Rose Family Factory is an installation, which shows a batik studio fused with a jam-making venture. Textiles are dyed with leaves of berry plants and the berries of those plants are used to make jam. The installation can be activated as a workshop for creating batik and marmalade from similar sources.
