Alisa Benfey + Designtex
Can colors and patterns have universal, timeless appeal? The artist and designer Alisa Benfey has pondered this question throughout her creative practice and most recently in her Slow Color collection for Designtex. Using the techniques of Kusaki-zome, or the Japanese art of seasonal botanical dyeing, Benfey created motifs and hues that are true to nature and are inspired by the organic environment of Los Angeles, where she lives and works.
