It is traditional art and cra# used by our grandparents as an artistic product. Nowadays, a majority of tie-dyes are produced with natural & Azo free chemical dyes. Even everyday used household items such as beetroot juice, nettle, turmeric, co$ee/tea etc can do the trick for coloring. In order to raise the pH level and start the reaction, soda ash and salt are added directly to the dye because it allows the colors to stain the fabric easily and stay brighter for a long period of time. Depending on the thickness and type of fabrics any piece of clothing can be tie-dyed easily. "e most popular tie-dye textiles are bed sheets, cushion covers, dresses, t-shirts, shawls, kitchen dinning fabrics, accessories etc. Aesthetically pleasing and easy to make tie-dyes are a form of artistic expression which showcases a sense of free spirit and love for peace. Tie-dyed products have intricate details and embellishments which transform even a boring, plain garment into a colorful explosion of fascinating motifs and designs. Catalogue MANUSHI 11 12 MANUSHI Catalogue MEENA GURUNG Meena has been a part of Manushi since the establishment of the organization. She came to Manushi in response to a training advertisement and she was in the first training batch of Manushi. She now works in the tie-dye department as a team leader. Due to the poor economic condition of her family, she started to work at an early age of sixteen. She shares about the difficulties she faced at the beginning of this endeavor. Due to the lack of market and amateur workers, the products often got dumped and she used to get her salary late. Now things have changed. She now gives training to new employees. She feels that Manushi helped her to become an independent woman and also helped to raise the living standard of her family. GANGA MAHARJAN Ganga Maharjan has been working at Manushi for last 12 years. She lives in a joint family with her husband and 19-years old son. Before joining Manushi she had some sewing skills. Later, she joined Manushi as a trainee and further developed her skills. Ganga now works at Manushi in the sewing department. She remembers those days when she was hesitate to talk with strangers, but now she has enough confident to talk with diverse and large group of people. She says she did the great work joining Manushi. Manushi helped her to uplift her economic condition and capacity that would be useful for her lifetime.

    Traces in the Dark

    Imaginary Archive Gregory Sholette-01 The archive: if we want to know what this will have meant, we will only know tomorrow. Perhaps. — Jacques Derrida IMAGINARY ARCHIVE There is something appealing and strangely seductive about half-forgotten places like the bookstore that in 2009 was still located inside the George Washington Bridge bus transfer station at 178th Street in Manhattan. For one thing, the store seemed hard at work repelling rather than attracting potential customers. Pulsing with a cold, blue-tinged florescent light, its sparse goods - books, magazines, some tourist souvenirs, and a few music CDs - were arranged haphazardly on rusted wire display stands or stacked edge-to-edge, rather than cover-to-cover, in order to fill up the available display shelves that sag at their centers, as if there was simply too much store in relation to its merchandise. Some of these shelves shed a powdery dust consisting of an unknown synthetic material that was supposed to resemble wood. Up near the stained drop ceiling hung hand-written signs scrawled in over-sized marker. ALL ITEMS HALF PRICE. FINAL SALE. COMPUTER BOOKS TWO FOR $10. But it is the books and other printed materials themselves that reflect the kind of curious neglect found at forsaken archeological sites. With titles like Aqueous Dynamics for the Hobbyist, Field Guide to the Soviet Union, Cobalt for Beginners, or Lobster Boy: An Amazing True Story, one cannot help but wonder just who these authors were, what became of their careers, and if anyone other than family members ever read their books? A similar set of questions applies to the all but unaccred- ited men and women who designed the covers of these forgotten volumes.

    Sustainable Resin Tapping in Nepal: Challenges and Opportunities (A Case from Salyan District)

    Sustainable Resin Tapping in Nepal: Challenges and Opportunities (A case from Salyan District) Dhananjaya Paudyal1 Abstract This paper attempts to explore a case from Salyan district on resin tapping and its contribution to local and national economy. Resin tapping and its related activities like extraction, collection and transportation are one of the major sources of employment for a large number of rural poor people. Based on the quantity of resin collected and exported outside the district, revenue is generated to central as well as local government and Community Forest User Groups (CFUGs). In the mean time, some issues and challenges have been identified at local level regarding the sustainability of resin tapping. It, therefore, concludes that some practical measures are necessary to overcome the issues and challenges so that resin tapping could be done in a sustainable manner. Sources of information of this paper are records of District Forest Office and rosin companies and net surfing as secondary sources; field observation, interviews with CFUGs and resin collectors as primary sources. Key Words: Pine forests, Resin tapping, Sustainability, Revenue, Employment, Nepal Introduction Nepal is rich in biodiversity, both flora and fauna, at ecosystem, species and genetic level. Within a span of about 200 km (North-South), more than 10,000 different flowering and non- flowering plant species are found. Among them, important Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) are medicinal and aromatic plants, resin, lokta paper, katha and Kutch, sabai grass, bamboo and cane. Resin gums are obtained from chir pine (Pinus roxburghii) and blue pine (Pinus wallichiana). Only chir pine can be tapped economically, as a chir pine tree yields about 3 to 6 kilograms annually.

    Petra Vogt Archive with Bardo Matrix Press and Ira Cohen in Kathmandu, Nepal, Ca

    Petra Vogt Archive with Bardo Matrix Press and Ira Cohen in Kathmandu, Nepal, ca. 1970s Photograph of Petra Cohen attributed to Ira Cohen. Kathmandu, Nepal. [ca. 1970s]. Description of the Collection Petra Vogt (b. Nov. 7, 1943 in Berlin, Germany) is a poet, actress, artist, and model, known for her involvement with The Living Theatre, Ira Cohen, and Bardo Matrix Press during the 1960s and 1970s. Living in Kathmandu from approx. 1972 to 1978, Vogt pursued her art and poetry, while participating in creative work with partner Cohen as well as Nepali hippies including Jimmy Thapa and Trilochan Shrestha, and the Kathmandu expatriate community including Angus and Hetty MacLise, Dana Young, John Chick, Charles Henri Ford, and others. While Vogt illustrated works for Starstreams and Bardo Matrix, and published her poetry in magazines like Angus MacLise's Ting Pa, her creative output in this era far exceeds her publications. This is the first archive with significant materials that illuminate her own life and work, as well as provide important insights into the Kathmandu scene—including Bardo Matrix Press and the Spirit Catcher Bookshop. The collection features approx. 34 journals, 150 artworks, 864 photographs by Ira Cohen, and over 60 items of correspondence, offering us substantial perspective on her creative practices and participation within the community. Photographs of her in Nepal in the 1970s were featured in a recent Photo Kathmandu festival in 2018. She continues to participate in creative and spiritual life today with various theater-oriented, poetic, and artistic projects under a different name.

An incredibly diverse medium, posters deliver a message in a brief and graphic burst. This ephemeral form of communication is often left unarchived and completely unprotected against the annihilatory tick of the clock, coinciding with the one-off nature of what the posters document and announce: an exhibition, a protest, a meeting, a performance, a happening. This catalog gathers posters across a wide array of subjects such as film, art, theatre, politics, and literature; and in a variety of modes of address: polemical, didactic, and annunciatory. Included are signed posters by filmmaker John Waters, a poster advertising an early exhibition by Memphis designer Ettore Sottsass, a remarkable poster from the Young Lords Party, a Swedish Black Power poster, and much more. For over a decade, we have been committed to the organization, stabilization, and preservation of cultural narratives through archival placement. Today, we continue and expand our mission through the sale of individual items and smaller collections. We encourage visitors to browse our extensive inventory of rare books, ephemera, archives and collections and look forward to inviting you back to our gallery in Manhattan’s Chinatown. Terms: Usual.
