HOW MUCH DYE IS THERE?
--------------------------------------
All dyes have been weighed in quantity to match what is needed to dye your 3 samples + dyeable. There will be enough Mordant and Dye after the process for you to dye at least one more small item, if not more, dependent on the size and weight of the item you choose to dye (i.e. there's not enough Mordant or Dye for say a sheet, but a small fabric, like a pillowcase or dishcloth, will come out less colorful than your first samples and dyeable, but dyed in a lighter shade surely).
The Dye bath will continue giving color until the dye particulates have been fully depleted. This means that you can continue to use it until the bath is not giving enough color to your liking. Important, the Mordant is what makes the Natural Dye adhere to fabric, so be sure to pre-mordant any item(s) you plan on dyeing

cute pics
It includes dried homegrown sulfur cosmos flowers, an 18” x 22” piece of raw silk, alum acetate for pre-treating your fabric (enough for more than just the included raw silk so you can try your hand on existing garments or linens in your home- painting with natural dyes is one of my favorite ways to revive and breath new life into old dingy or stained garments), guar gum (a natural agent to thicken your flower extraction to make paint), iron salt (ferrous sulfate can widen the palette of the paint to create a whole new family of colors- moody orange, brown and even olive green), and instructions on how to pre-treat your fabric, make paint and bundle dye.

In the short story William Wilson, Edgar Allan Poe presents a sinister plot: the tale of a character who, from his childhood, experiences the apparition of a figure who in everything resembles and haunts him with similitude and repetition – until he turns out to be himself. It is the doppelgänger, or double, a recurring figure in literature (from Dostoyevsky to Borges and Wilde) and in all the arts. The very act of representing – oneself or the other – can be understood as a gesture of creation of parallel realities, thus doubles to those in which we live. The exhibition DOUBLES, DOBROS, PLIEGUES, PARES, TWINS, MITADES takes this literary figure as a starting point to create an inventory of situations in which otherness and duplication/repetition are manifested in works from The Rachofsky Collection, The Rose Collection, The Collection of Marguerite Steed Hoffman, and the Dallas Museum of Art, among others, assuming diverse configurations: from forms of representation that occur through replicas, shadowing, and mirroring to logical-formal exercises that are expressed by the use of halves and doubles. The narrative departs from works in which the theme of the double appears explicitly – the most striking example being Felix Gonzalez-Torres’ “Untitled” (Perfect Lovers), an iconic piece from the collection with its identical but different clocks – to arrive at the idiom of abstraction, where virtual space and its relationship between exterior and interior constitute a bridge to the rapports between the self and the other.
