How Textile Chemical Dyes Impact the Environment?
In the vibrant world of fashion and textiles, colors play a pivotal role in capturing our imagination and defining our sense of style. The captivating hues of our garments owe their brilliance to a significant yet often overlooked aspect of the industry: chemical dyes.
These dyes have revolutionized the textile sector, making it possible to produce a wide array of colors and patterns that appeal to consumers' ever-changing tastes. However, amidst this rainbow of possibilities lies a dark truth - the environmental impact of textile chemical dyes.
In this blog, we delve into the consequences of using chemical dyes in textile production and explore sustainable alternatives that can help mitigate the ecological footprint of the fashion industry.
Water Pollution
One of the most significant environmental concerns associated with chemical reactive dyes in textiles is water pollution. Conventional dyeing processes often involve large amounts of water, which is used to rinse and treat fabrics. As a result, vast quantities of chemically-laden wastewater are discharged into rivers and water bodies, contaminating aquatic ecosystems. Many of these dyes are non-biodegradable and can persist in the environment for decades, disrupting the natural balance and threatening the health of aquatic organisms.
Energy Consumption
The process of digital textile sublimation inks requires substantial energy inputs, primarily during the dye application and fixation stages. Traditional dyeing methods may involve high-temperature dye baths and extended processing times, adding to the industry's carbon footprint. The energy-intensive nature of these processes contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, accelerating climate change and its devastating consequences.
Toxic Chemical Exposure
Chemical dyes used in textile auxiliaries manufacturers often contain hazardous substances such as heavy metals, formaldehyde, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Not only are these substances harmful to the environment, but they also pose significant health risks to the workers in the textile industry who are exposed to them daily. Moreover, consumers may experience allergic reactions and skin irritations when in contact with garments containing residual dye chemicals.
Biodiversity and Land Contamination
When dye wastewater finds its way into the soil, it can have severe consequences for terrestrial ecosystems. The toxic substances from the dyes can leach into the soil, affecting soil quality and disrupting the delicate balance of local flora and fauna. Moreover, the disposal of waste from dyeing processes can lead to the accumulation of harmful chemicals in landfills, further exacerbating the environmental impact.
Scarce Resource Consumption
Many chemical dyes rely on non-renewable resources for their production. For instance, some synthetic dyes use petroleum-based derivatives, placing additional strain on dwindling fossil fuel reserves. As these resources become scarcer, the textile industry must find more sustainable alternatives to safeguard the planet's future.
Embracing Sustainable Solutions
As we confront the ecological consequences of chemical dyes, the textile industry is gradually recognizing the urgent need for change. Embracing sustainable solutions can help mitigate the impact of dyes on the environment:
Natural Dyes: Traditional plant-based dyes, such as indigo, turmeric, and madder, offer a biodegradable and eco-friendly alternative. They can be sourced sustainably, reducing the strain on the environment.
Waterless Dyeing Technologies: Innovative technologies, like air dyeing and digital printing, minimize water usage and eliminate the discharge of wastewater, significantly reducing water pollution.
Biodegradable Dyes: Researchers are developing biodegradable dyes that break down naturally over time, circumventing the issue of persistent chemicals in the environment.
Eco-Friendly Dyeing Processes: Manufacturers can adopt low-impact dyeing techniques that consume less energy and minimize toxic chemical usage, ensuring a cleaner and safer environment for all.
The use of chemical dyes offers by textile printing ink exporter in the textile industry has undoubtedly made fashion more colourful and accessible. However, this innovation comes at a high cost to our environment. From water pollution to biodiversity loss, the impact of chemical dyes on the planet is far-reaching.
To ensure a sustainable future, it is imperative for the industry to embrace eco-friendly alternatives and implement responsible dyeing practices. By taking steps towards a more environmentally conscious approach, we can paint a brighter, greener canvas for the fashion world, where creativity and conscience coexist harmoniously.

Cally Leung is an illustrator from Toronto who's very dedicated to dressing up like her projects. She loves fashion, inks, murder mysteries and mythology. This project covers three out of four of those; I will let you guess which ones.
The PAX collection: I set out to make a series of illustrations based on excerpts from the first book in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy: Inferno. These pieces were then worshipped to work for textiles but can be used for print. all of them reflect the ideas of mortality, reflection, piety that are present in the text and incorporate mythological imagery. Dante's story takes him through Hell's layers, and in doing so, he reckons with his humanity while guided by his mentor, Virgil. This project means a lot to me; it was a pilgrimage of my own.
Inferno was originally written in 1321 by Dante Alighieri in Italina. This collection uses a translation by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, published in 1867. Ink Photography, Digital collage. September 2024 to December 2024. Extra special thanks to Mark Stoddart.
"Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself wihin a forest dark for the straightforward pathway had been lost." Dante, 1.1-3

Ahoy reader, I'm here to vent. My second favorite season is coming, outside the window the sky is showering washing away the sweltering warmth and it inspires me to do the same with my suffocating self, now in pre-mid life (33) and confuse on the direction, tired of all those coats I've put on my shoulders without consent of a self now lost inside the textile. I just spent 2 or more hours of a working day cleaning my tumblr page, I made all of my past drawings private. Doing so I retraced the 10 or more years spent in this platform through different life phases and artistic epiphanies. I realized how much I forgot of myself, especially the joy I had drawing my pictures in my sparetime. Since I remember I have always had a sketchbook and a trousse of pens and pencils on me, everywhere. During elementary, college, high schools, I remember long train trips filling pages with doodles and thoughts. I stopped filling sketchbooks around eight years ago, close to my diploma, I had countless short deadlines, many white nights and a lot of stress. But I still had school assignements and side projects with friends both done in traditional techniques. No more traditional drawing for me, but still drawing for side fun projects. The school trained me to be an illustrator, more than a comic artist. To experiment and test different tools, my favorite still are inks and gouaches. Life after school became all about comics. And comics, at the - fucking long- beginning of your carreer are 90% ridiculously poor payed. The reasonable choice I took to balance that with the time spent on each page was to learn to actually make them on photoshop, safer if you have to erase, remove pages, redo faces. I didn't have much spare time, but when I had I used it experimenting brushes and learning a bit better the programs while making doodles for myself. No, actually a big changement happened: social networks. Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram and all. Part of me was doing them for myself and in order to evolve the technique, part of me was doing them to display them online. The quest for the "likes" serotonin-dispenser just started.
Now, in bigger comic projects, with bigger life events, and less daily energy I have no spare time, I'm full into professional work. Written by someone else, I'm full time into someone else's world. Comics are already life-sucking, but a life-sucking project when it's not even yours it sucks even the ground under your feet. Now I watch, I don't see, I execute, I'm unable to observe anymore. So I don't post on socials anymore, I'm being consumed by them while consuming time, brainless, zombiengly lurking memes and other distractions from the void this job created in me. I don't remember what I like, what I want to draw, what I would write on a sketchbook and god how I miss traditional techniques, I miss having my own ideas, my personal vertical projects and my personal horizontal purpose, I miss the joy behind my work, I don't remember myself. I've never been consistent, nor obsessed too much on something. I've always be in love with the act of drawing, the state of mind you have while doing it, the beautiful line, the beautiful palette. Every subject could be nicely done. I deeply respect artists with the same style, experimenting inside their comfort zone, obsessed with a subject and pursuing it year after year after year. They are coherent, awhile ago they chose one only coat and they decide to wear only that, and year after year it fits them always better. I myself I'm much better than before in terms of style, composition, lines, narration. The appearence of my style is much more solid, the inside is void. My old drawings in this blog were impressive, they could tell the joy I had experimenting. The oldest ones, the traditional ones, were the happiest. My technical traditional skills were better than my actual digital ones and the soul behind each sketch was so alive! I removed the old drawings from my blog not because I'm ashamed by them. But because I had a pity looking at this decline over and over, I wanted a -maybe?- fresh start. Fall always offers me new resolutions and will for changes, now I'm imploding, I'm sick of memes, I'm sick of stupidities, I'm sick of my poor time management. I want to come back in tumblr because it was, to my remindings, the healthier of the social networks, the less silly (at least my dashboard), the more balanced in aesthetic and content. I want to try to let it help me venting or finding myself again, I guess. Are you experiencing my same sickness of the pointless time-sucking web?

I want to know more about the m9 artist au!! I remember reading a post or two about it a billion years ago (and would love to read them again) 💜
hi jess!!!! thank u for being interested hehe :")
so ever since i drew that lil thing of essek painting a frank stella inspired painting (or even before), ive been thinking of what kinds of art each of the m9 would do. essek ofc is inspired by a minimalist show that i went to here, all the big names from that movement were shown, but those really dark, sinkhole-like paintings are speaking to me. another artwork of boxes made of mirrors also seems like the thing he would do too
there's a kiln here that we visited which was huge, and surrounding it were artists' studios and some other ceramic sellers, i imagine the clay family having a place like this in the middle of nowhere amongst the trees, and caleb would do his work there
anyways because at heart im a shadowgast luver its centred around them,, they meet at an artist residency or something like that and its an incredibly slow burn that involves talking and not-talking and looking and not-looking. in the end i am but a simple wong kar wai fan so. that kinda vibes would definitely influence this, i would describe it as a quiet burning i guess?? time skipy and words that are not said
i think im gonna rant a bit more about their different mediums and styles so i'll keep it under the cut
i think caleb sculpts figures and portraits, but in a sad, kathe kollwitz charcoal vibe. maybe some funky looking animals, perhaps some pots and vases to look at the pretty glazes. he's interested in using fire to burn texture into different mediums, like ive seen it being used on shellac to make a really cool net of ink looking structure.. but yknow, just seeing the aftermath of glazed ceramic from the kiln is enough, and probably better for him to keep his distance anyways
the clay family produces most of the ceramic to sell, vases, pots, plates, cups, teapots, yknow just a whole array. and its really colourful too, depicting every family members different style. i think caduceus would do some matte glazes with a lot of different colours, theyre all a little wonky but theyre better off that way anyways. he does some really mean ink calligraphy and painting though
jester definitely does,, everything, whatever her heart desires kinda thang. she makes pastel textile installations and lighthearted cute paintings, but theyre always so contemplative and soothing. she gets m9 a lot of work cus her mom has connections, etc etc. i really love the idea of jester creating works that talk about the female body and femininity (definitely not projecting no)
beau is a printmaker and photographer who's really experimental, she loves cyanotypes and printing flowers (for yasha), idk she seems like she would put fabric and rocks into the washing machine to see what would happen. u would probably catch her in someone elses studio learning about what they do or in the library learning about what old people did
veth works in a museum as a curator, getting beau to help her sometimes with gathering artworks and artists etc. she probably organises community art projects for kids and public art installations. her house is full of m9's artworks and various other artists shes worked with.
yasha does bouquets as her post-retirement part time job, prior to that no one really knows what she did ("she probably murdered a bunch of people and is now hiding from the government"). fjord draws comics for fun but is also not a job for him, molly is a question mark for me. but these guys probably wont be in it as much anyways
im still not sure what format i wanna do this in, im actually having fun just writing it in my notebook now (digital does not facilitate the creative juices) but i do want to do some visuals like fake movie stills or storyboards. maybe they will work together well???? dunno. working on the other shadowgasty thing im doing made me realise how much easier it is to draw when there's a script already there, so im writing the script for myself
im definitely not as practiced in writing as i am in drawing, but idk im just gonna have some fun and see where that takes me, meanwhile try not to feel too bad that its fanart HAHA (very bad habit)
edit: i just saw my previous thoughts on beau being an art journalist, but i kinda like this better.. but maybe she can do both muah
#working tag for this ->#the kiln#honestly if u had any tips for writing#i'd love to hear..#i was insulted once on my writing and never wrote again HADHSFHF#oh and also emo smoking#that is somethng i want to draw more of

hello!! i am troxler (trox if you're nasty) and you might know me from my xwitter @ broadcastrelay or my old experimental art blog @hand-in-hand-again .
this blog is sfw. i have a more reblog-heavy nsfw sideblog, @heartshapedsignal , where i can place aesthetics, rb art that i like, Cronenbergpost & generally toss up more intense horror things & keep this one somewhat more tidy + personal-art-oriented. follow my alt if you please; although it's unlikely i'll ever post anything too explicit, there is nsfw/🔞 potential, so again, heartshapedsignal is 🔞 just to be safe!!
i have a throne account here if you'd like to support my work by helping with supplies & thereby earn my eternal gratitude:
commissions are currently closed & i will update here & on xwitter if that changes!!
i do have discord if you'd like to chat, you can DM me for my username. i'm vision impaired & it's a little easier for me than tumblr DMs (scalable font. properly mapped keyboard that allows me to hit the right keys occasionally. you know 👁️)
i am sometimes slow to respond to messages, but i don't expect you to be available all the time either--i answer things when i have a moment, & i assume others do too ✌️ i have the temperament of a displaced 11th century anchorite, am simply not adapted to the tone & pace of centralized social media.
i also unfortunately cannot voice call or stream/screen share because i am a millennial (just kidding, it's because my phone is almost 9 years old & it overheats when i check my e-mail)
learn a bit more about me under the cut ✂️
i was dropped into this simulation in the early 80s, i'm a disabled artist (vision impaired - [ask me about my atrophied optic nerves] - & have some other physical Issues so i use a cane) & my wife and i host two black cats, roughly 35% of a mannequin, and a whole lot of dolls.
all my art is trad/physical media (haven't figured out a way to make digital art accessible yet. maybe someday!!) i like to sculpt in epoxy, plastilene, polymer & stone clay, i like to mold & cast in resin, make & customize various types of dolls, & build puppets; i do custom framed work, mixed media & textile stuff like sewing & embroidery; i paint in oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache & water soluble graphite & i love ink, markers, crayons & whatever cheap & weird stuff i can get my hands on.
i have a particular affection for props, prop replicas & hypothetical in-universe items, & i like things that are handsome, durable & believable. i'm versatile & innovative, & i'm at my happiest when i'm exploring technical processes. i have quite a bit of knowledge about techniques & materials. i love a challenge!! currently all my sewing is done by hand, i have trouble controlling pedal-operated machines.
my favorite thing is horror coated in a fine layer of nostalgia & sprinkled with history. that seems highly specific, but you'd be surprised how many things fit the criteria. i tend to fixate on characters & concepts & do a lot of art about it - a habit i developed while i was re-teaching myself to draw after the changes to my eyesight. my output is largely therapeutic. sometimes people like it. maybe you will too!!
a good amount of my work is fanart & will be tagged as such/otherwise linked to the appropriate project, original work will be specified & have its own tag.
at the moment i make a lot of work related to the independent psychological horror unfiction project Welcome Home, created by ' partycoffin ' here on tumblr.
that's all for now!! 👁️🗨️📺

Dyes : The World of Colors
Colors make our world vibrant, and dyes are the magical ingredients that bring life to everything around us. Let’s explore the colorful universe of dyes, breaking down the various types and their fascinating uses in everyday life.
Understanding Dyes:
Dyes are like special paints that add color to different things. Humans have been fascinated by colors for a long time, and dyes play a huge role in making our world colorful. There are two main types of dyes: natural and synthetic. They are used to add color to items like utensils, textiles, leather products, and even food.
Types of Dyes:
Basic Dyes:
These dyes are made in labs and give really bright colors. They are great for adding color to things like acrylic fibers and synthetic materials.
Direct Dyes:
These dyes dissolve in water and are used for coloring materials like cotton. They are commonly used in the textile industry.
Natural dyes :
Natural dyes are derived from sources in nature and may include substances like indigo, turmeric, or cochineal. While these dyes have a historical and cultural significance, they often present limitations in terms of color range and fastness.
Acid Dyes:
Perfect for coloring protein fibers like wool and silk, acid dyes are highly soluble in water. They are not suitable for materials like cotton but work well for leather and medical products.
Synthetic Dyes:
Man-made and chemically produced, these dyes come in a wide range of colors. They are used in many industries due to being affordable, but they can be harmful to the environment and humans.
Reactive Dyes:
Best for cellulose, protein, and polyamide fibers, these dyes are easy to use and have good light-fastness properties. They are popular in the textile industry.
Solvent Dyes:
Modern and non-toxic, these dyes are used in upcoming textile mills. They are convenient but may be more expensive. Solvent dyes are seen as alternatives to traditional harmful dyes.
Food Dyes:
Added to food to make it look attractive, food dyes come in various forms. It’s important to use them carefully as excessive consumption can lead to health problems. They are either natural or artificial.
Application of Dyes:
Textiles: Dyes are extensively used in the textile industry to color fabrics, clothing, and other textile products. They can be applied through various methods such as dyeing, printing, or painting.
Plastics: Dyes enhance the appearance of plastic products, providing them with a wide range of colors and finishes.
Printing: Inks, whether for traditional printing or modern digital printing, often contain dyes to produce vibrant and accurate colors.
Food: Food dyes are used to add color to various food products, making them visually appealing. These dyes can be natural or synthetic.
Industrial Use: Dyes find applications in various industrial processes, including coloring materials like leather, creating inks for pens and printers, and contributing to the production of a wide array of products.

ℑ𝔫𝔱𝔯𝔬𝔡𝔲𝔠𝔱𝔦𝔬𝔫 𝔱𝔬 𝔪𝔶 𝔭𝔯𝔬𝔧𝔢𝔠𝔱
In my project, I explore the theme 'assemble' through witchcraft; its history, femininity, practices and rituals. At the very beginning, I was quite focused on the botanical side of witchcraft - the way witches use herbs, plants and flowers to create potions for healing. As my project progressed, I began to research the history of witchcraft and started to learn a lot more about its early days in Europe. From here, my ideas developed into modern day witchcraft and practices today.
During my project, I researched a variety of artists to help inspire my theme and expand my ideas and use of materials. I looked at Dorothy Cross, Michael Canning, Albrecht Durer, Athena Papadopoulos and others and found that their work helped my progression and pushed me to try unfamiliar mediums. I also carried out primary research by exploring objects that are used in spell crafting such as herbs, crystals and stones.
I used a wide variety of mediums and processes through the workshops and independent exploration. I created work through embroidery, charcoal, ink, textiles, clay, photography and digital collage to name a few. While not everything worked out exactly the way I wanted, I was able to identify the weak points in certain areas of my project and pinpoint what I could have done better.
I feel satisfied with the outcome of my project as I learned so much about myself and my theme in the process of it. I feel that I have captured the essence of my interest in witchcraft through the work I have produced.

A Guide to Waste Reduction in Indian Weddings
In a world that's becoming increasingly conscious of environmental impact, it's time for weddings to take on a green hue. indian wedding, known for their grandeur, can also be a source of significant waste. However, with a few thoughtful choices, you can turn your wedding into an eco-friendly celebration. Here's a guide to waste reduction in Indian weddings.
Eco-friendly Invitations
Embrace the digital age and send out e-invitations instead of traditional paper ones. Not only does this reduce paper waste, but it also makes it easier for guests to RSVP and stay connected throughout the wedding festivities.

Rent Your Outfits:
Consider renting your wedding attire instead of buying it. This not only saves money but also reduces the demand for new clothing production. Many platforms offer the opportunity to rent wedding dresses, allowing you to express your style without contributing to the environmental impact of textile waste.
Wedding Decor:
Opt for local and seasonal flowers for your wedding decor. Not only do they add a touch of freshness, but choosing local blooms also minimizes the carbon footprint associated with transporting flowers over long distances. Consider repurposing decor items or donating them to reduce waste further.
