The dyeing of 1 km of cotton ribbon for Plethora Magazine issue 12 / Watch the ribbons turn from madder orange-red to dark umbra with the help of iron & tannins.
PLETHORA writes : In the wide dissection of natural form, Plethora Magazine #12 enters further into the spectrum of natural pigments to highlight the organic dye processes involved in many of the traditional, pioneering photographic printing techniques such as calotypes, cyanotypes, ferrotypes, silver albumen types, anthotypes and more.
As a further emphasis on the theme of issue 12, the ribbons on the cover are naturally dyed - adapted to the front page's burnt umbra.
