Last week we worked with year 1 in Micklehurst All Saints CE Primary School to show them how to extract colour from nature and get a start on planting their very own dye garden 🌱

We went dandelion hunting and simmered them to get a yellow dye. We then painted fabric with soy milk and dipped their designs in the dye to reveal the different patterns. We also planted indigo to become part of a community of local indigo growers to eventually get our own Mossley blue indigo dye!

The Madder Dress! Check out this video of the world-premiere of our first stunning, outdoor installation The Living Dress.

This first dress (out of four dresses we’re making in 2024) premiered at Rochdale Festival of Ideas on Monday 4th - Saturday 9th March outside Rochdale Town Hall.

Rochdale’s Living Dress installation was made with the help of three local women’s groups – Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters, as well as an amazing group of volunteers at @the_vale_mossley in Mossley.

Together, they have learned about the culture and stories behind the natural dye madder, which has been used around the world since around 3000BC. Madder is an ancient root and using madder in this first dress takes us back to the roots of textile dying, going back to nature, and making textiles in a slow way as well as working towards being more climate kind.

The groups Cabasa worked with were made up of many different backgrounds and experiences which is reflected in the dress, as well as being invigorated by what they have learned. Many want to take their own research into these natural processes further.

Created by Cabasa Artistic Director: Emily Wood
Sculpture design realised and sculpted by: Iola Weir
Sculpture fabricator: Dave Pack

Lead artists: Kate Rothery, Vicky Richards, Dan Jones, Rowan Taylor, Lizzie Rigby

Rochdale Community Groups: Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters.

Thanks to our amazing group of Cabasa volunteers at The Vale in Mossley.

Thanks so much to Lee Brennan and the team at @rochdalecouncil for this opportunity, the team at Opus @outdoorplacesunusualspaces and everyone involved in Rochdale Borough Festival of Ideas, as well as @broadbentstudio for the batik design inspiration.

This project was funded by: @weareinnovateuk @tnlcommunityfund @aceagrams @greatermcr

Shout out to the extra support from @global_grooves too.

The Madder Dress! Check out this video of the world-premiere of our first stunning, outdoor installation The Living Dress. This first dress (out of four dresses we’re making in 2024) premiered at Rochdale Festival of Ideas on Monday 4th - Saturday 9th March outside Rochdale Town Hall. Rochdale’s Living Dress installation was made with the help of three local women’s groups – Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters, as well as an amazing group of volunteers at @the_vale_mossley in Mossley. Together, they have learned about the culture and stories behind the natural dye madder, which has been used around the world since around 3000BC. Madder is an ancient root and using madder in this first dress takes us back to the roots of textile dying, going back to nature, and making textiles in a slow way as well as working towards being more climate kind. The groups Cabasa worked with were made up of many different backgrounds and experiences which is reflected in the dress, as well as being invigorated by what they have learned. Many want to take their own research into these natural processes further. Created by Cabasa Artistic Director: Emily Wood Sculpture design realised and sculpted by: Iola Weir Sculpture fabricator: Dave Pack Lead artists: Kate Rothery, Vicky Richards, Dan Jones, Rowan Taylor, Lizzie Rigby Rochdale Community Groups: Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters. Thanks to our amazing group of Cabasa volunteers at The Vale in Mossley. Thanks so much to Lee Brennan and the team at @rochdalecouncil for this opportunity, the team at Opus @outdoorplacesunusualspaces and everyone involved in Rochdale Borough Festival of Ideas, as well as @broadbentstudio for the batik design inspiration. This project was funded by: @weareinnovateuk @tnlcommunityfund @aceagrams @greatermcr Shout out to the extra support from @global_grooves too.

Tis the season! 🌱 💙 We’re busy working on more experiments for our next Living Dress, location to be revealed soon! We’re planting Japanese Indigo again but scaling things up with a newly made local Indigo Planters collective, expanding our dye garden here at The Vale and beyond, and about to work with a local Primary school, as well as more research and development into resists and dyeing techniques.

Here Kate is manning some Indigo Vats (Iron and Henna) and applying Nori rice resist paste on some test pieces.

Stay tuned for more 👀

Endomorphosis 2023

The aim of this project was to bring women together with Endometriosis, to celebrate the warrior within, create beautiful thought-provoking art together, and provide a moment, however fleeting, to be free.

“Through an experience I had in Carnival where my whole body was painted, I felt liberated from all the negative thoughts I had about my body and I wanted to share that experience with as many women as possible.”

 - Emily Wood (Artistic Director, Cabasa CIC)

“It is difficult to put into words how transformative the power of a project like this is for suffers of a chronic illness. To meet so many others who know exactly what you’re going through and find peer support is so powerful for such a debilitating and isolating condition. The feeling of seeing your body not just as a sick vessel, but as a piece of thoughtful and carefully created piece of art was so therapeutic and empowering.”

- 2023 Participant

Thank you to these beautiful women for trusting us with their experiences and bodies. It was an honour to work with you all to create beautiful art and celebrate each and every one of you as Endo warriors. An experience we won’t forget.

Endometriosis can be an isolating disease and it’s important to be heard. Through this project we aim to provide women a voice.

Ocean Theme 🌊

Tentacles constrict, and the jellyfish stings, beautiful and also deadly. The ocean can be a place to escape for calm, and peace, whilst also being wild and tempestuous.

Tribal patterns nod to the warrior within. One leg painted in a bruise colour to represent how bruised the body feels, but we were stamping it down for the day.

By adorning the body with symbology, we recognise these women as warriors (as cultures around the world have for millennia), and respect bodies that have endured so much, as well as the badassness of our bodies and an opportunity to honour them in a beautiful way.

Rainbow Theme 🌈

Lightning representing the storm, electric shocks and the pain felt in Endometriosis. The rainbow appears and we learn to dance in the rain and weather the storm. Wild flowers representing resilience, rebirth and beauty.

Amongst the beauty, only one leg is bruised and red to acknowledge the pain everyone has felt.

Last week we worked with year 1 in Micklehurst All Saints CE Primary School to show them how to extract colour from nature and get a start on planting their very own dye garden 🌱

We went dandelion hunting and simmered them to get a yellow dye. We then painted fabric with soy milk and dipped their designs in the dye to reveal the different patterns. We also planted indigo to become part of a community of local indigo growers to eventually get our own Mossley blue indigo dye!

The Madder Dress! Check out this video of the world-premiere of our first stunning, outdoor installation The Living Dress.

This first dress (out of four dresses we’re making in 2024) premiered at Rochdale Festival of Ideas on Monday 4th - Saturday 9th March outside Rochdale Town Hall.

Rochdale’s Living Dress installation was made with the help of three local women’s groups – Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters, as well as an amazing group of volunteers at @the_vale_mossley in Mossley.

Together, they have learned about the culture and stories behind the natural dye madder, which has been used around the world since around 3000BC. Madder is an ancient root and using madder in this first dress takes us back to the roots of textile dying, going back to nature, and making textiles in a slow way as well as working towards being more climate kind.

The groups Cabasa worked with were made up of many different backgrounds and experiences which is reflected in the dress, as well as being invigorated by what they have learned. Many want to take their own research into these natural processes further.

Created by Cabasa Artistic Director: Emily Wood
Sculpture design realised and sculpted by: Iola Weir
Sculpture fabricator: Dave Pack

Lead artists: Kate Rothery, Vicky Richards, Dan Jones, Rowan Taylor, Lizzie Rigby

Rochdale Community Groups: Seriously Crafty, Women’s Welfare, and Soul Sisters.

Thanks to our amazing group of Cabasa volunteers at The Vale in Mossley.

Thanks so much to Lee Brennan and the team at @rochdalecouncil for this opportunity, the team at Opus @outdoorplacesunusualspaces and everyone involved in Rochdale Borough Festival of Ideas, as well as @broadbentstudio for the batik design inspiration.

This project was funded by: @weareinnovateuk @tnlcommunityfund @aceagrams @greatermcr

Shout out to the extra support from @global_grooves too.

Tis the season! 🌱 💙 We’re busy working on more experiments for our next Living Dress, location to be revealed soon! We’re planting Japanese Indigo again but scaling things up with a newly made local Indigo Planters collective, expanding our dye garden here at The Vale and beyond, and about to work with a local Primary school, as well as more research and development into resists and dyeing techniques.

Here Kate is manning some Indigo Vats (Iron and Henna) and applying Nori rice resist paste on some test pieces.

Stay tuned for more 👀

Indigo seeds from our friends @bailiwickblue 🌱

Endomorphosis 2023

The aim of this project was to bring women together with Endometriosis, to celebrate the warrior within, create beautiful thought-provoking art together, and provide a moment, however fleeting, to be free.

“Through an experience I had in Carnival where my whole body was painted, I felt liberated from all the negative thoughts I had about my body and I wanted to share that experience with as many women as possible.”

 - Emily Wood (Artistic Director, Cabasa CIC)

“It is difficult to put into words how transformative the power of a project like this is for suffers of a chronic illness. To meet so many others who know exactly what you’re going through and find peer support is so powerful for such a debilitating and isolating condition. The feeling of seeing your body not just as a sick vessel, but as a piece of thoughtful and carefully created piece of art was so therapeutic and empowering.”

- 2023 Participant

Thank you to these beautiful women for trusting us with their experiences and bodies. It was an honour to work with you all to create beautiful art and celebrate each and every one of you as Endo warriors. An experience we won’t forget.

Endometriosis can be an isolating disease and it’s important to be heard. Through this project we aim to provide women a voice.

Ocean Theme 🌊

Tentacles constrict, and the jellyfish stings, beautiful and also deadly. The ocean can be a place to escape for calm, and peace, whilst also being wild and tempestuous.

Tribal patterns nod to the warrior within. One leg painted in a bruise colour to represent how bruised the body feels, but we were stamping it down for the day.

By adorning the body with symbology, we recognise these women as warriors (as cultures around the world have for millennia), and respect bodies that have endured so much, as well as the badassness of our bodies and an opportunity to honour them in a beautiful way.

Ocean Theme 🌊 Tentacles constrict, and the jellyfish stings, beautiful and also deadly. The ocean can be a place to escape for calm, and peace, whilst also being wild and tempestuous. Tribal patterns nod to the warrior within. One leg painted in a bruise colour to represent how bruised the body feels, but we were stamping it down for the day. By adorning the body with symbology, we recognise these women as warriors (as cultures around the world have for millennia), and respect bodies that have endured so much, as well as the badassness of our bodies and an opportunity to honour them in a beautiful way. 📸 Sharon Latham @selfieguideshaz ___ Endomorphosis is part of our ongoing body painting research and development project in which we’ve been studying this global art form, from its ancient roots, to modern cultural form, to how body painting can be an empowering tool to boost well-being. ____ If you have been affected by Endometriosis and would like to get support or read more about this condition, we have put together a series of links and resources on our support page in the link in our bio #EndometriosisActionMonth #EndometriosisAction #Endomorphosis #Cabasa #bodypainting #EndometriosisUK #Endowarrior #BodyArt #Bodypaint

Rainbow Theme 🌈

Lightning representing the storm, electric shocks and the pain felt in Endometriosis. The rainbow appears and we learn to dance in the rain and weather the storm. Wild flowers representing resilience, rebirth and beauty.

Amongst the beauty, only one leg is bruised and red to acknowledge the pain everyone has felt.
