The Upcycled Tree Palette

Wild Dot

Spend a relaxing morning creating art outdoors with natural pigments from Singapore’s roadside trees.

OldTown White Coffee (Coastal Playgrove)

Join this experience with Shirin and Liz from Wild Dot as your guides – even if you’ve never created art outdoors before! They’ll introduce paints with pigments from Singapore-based trees and share how to use the uniquely packaged pigment sticks from their Upcycled Tree Palette artmaking kits. In 2021 Wild Dot embarked on a project with horticultural landscapers in Singapore to explore turning parts of pruned tree prunings into colour pigments. With support from the Good Design Research initiative, they experimented and worked on various prototype iterations and experimentation with pigments from the prunings. Their research led them to design an artmaking kit with the intention of encouraging positive nature art interactions in users. During the event, Wild Dot will share the learnings from the project while introducing and guiding the participants to the usage of the kit, as well as the plants they are derived from. Recommended for ages 4 and up, including grown-ups looking for a much-needed break. The Upcycled Tree Palette artmaking kit (beta version) will be provided and will include everything you need to create art for the session. Each artmaking kit contains four pigment sticks, a granite plate, an upcycled wooden palette, a brush, a ring-bound journal and activity guide, water dropped bottle, and a hand-dyed Furoshiki cloth. The session will take place outdoors and will be moved to a sheltered area if it rains. D﻿ate &amp; Timing: 12 March, 10am to 12pmT﻿he location of the event will be confirmed by the organizer upon sign-up. T﻿his project is supported under the Good Design Research grant by DesignSingapore Council.
