# Event Details - **Event Name**: Resurgent Rhizomes: Knotweed and Dyeing Invasive Histories - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 31 Jan, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sat, 31 Jan, 2026 at 04:00 pm - **Event Description**: A textile dyeing workshop with Work-In-Progress resident Dayeon JeongAbout this EventResurgent Rhizomes invites participants into a shared natural dyeing process with Reynoutria japonica (Japanese knotweed), an herbaceous plant native to East Asia, carried across colonial trade routes and now classified as a global invasive species.With pre-harvested local material, color will be extracted from leaves, stems, and roots in a communal dyebath. Through shifting pH, we will observe how the dye moves across a spectrum of yellow to orange and reds.Wool and silk, familiar textiles historically used in lining and uniform, will be provided as surfaces shaped by export economies and institutional dress. Like knotweed, these materials reveal how colonial logics re-emerge, persistently reasserting themselves in everyday structures.Participants are invited to engage in making and observation, reflecting on how modernity is worn and negotiated through process rather than instruction.ABOUT THE ARTIST:정다연 Dayeon Jeong (b.
