Designer and architect Neri Oxman has unveiled an experimental fabric dyeing method using bacteria to color silk, potentially reducing the fashion industry's heavy reliance on toxic chemical dyes. The concept, developed by Oxman and her team, involves spraying a bacterial solution onto a 3D-knitted silk textile and allowing it to incubate. As the bacteria grow, they produce natural pigments in faded indigo and pink hues, creating a unique, organic pattern without synthetic dyes.
