I am always striving to go further: no plastic packaging, reusing textile scraps for research samples, and more. For example, in my garden, I collect rainwater for dye baths and rinsing. I also try to recover as much waste as possible – avocado skins, onion peels and so on. There are so many plant-based resources that can be used to create colour.

It is more about returning to a forgotten tradition, which has been replaced by synthetic dyes. Much like permaculture, my craft is about rediscovering ancestral know-how and bringing in a touch of modernity. My role is to show that natural dyes can be modern with their colours, through contemporary production methods, and that they can be long-lasting.

I am drawn to simplicity. The world of Japanese textiles, which echoes the Scandinavian aesthetic, is a rich source of inspiration. My colour palette is intentionally limited: four core shades form the foundation. I occasionally introduce one or two additional tones. Pink (from madder), sky blue (indigo), yellow and grey are the pillars. Material and tactility guide me in textile creation.
