Exploring the Art of Traditional Tie-and-Dye Craft
Adire, a centuries-old fabric art originating from the Yoruba people of Nigeria, is renowned for its intricate patterns and vibrant designs. The name "Adire" translates to "tie and dye" in Yoruba, encapsulating the unique techniques used to create this traditional textile.
Benefit of our Training
Adire training is an essential pathway for preserving and promoting this traditional craft. Through hands-on workshops and mentorship programs, trainees learn the delicate art of preparing, tying, and dyeing fabric to create exquisite designs.
Techniques and Tools in Adire Training
Participants in Adire training are introduced to various tools and techniques, such as resist-dyeing, stenciling, and hand painting. Wax, cassava paste, and raffia are commonly used to create resist patterns on the fabric before it is dipped into natural or synthetic dyes.
