*WHAT*
Aluminum anodizing is a process that produces a porous surface, which allows aluminum to accept dye easily. The spectrum of color it creates is almost endless. This industrial process is brought into the studio in a workshop where participants will create a bracelet, earrings, and test samples. Click the image below to see samples created in previous workshops!
