This month my mission is focussed on creating a real silk that is also vegan. I figured if I can find enough empty cocoons, wild and discarded by their original inhabitant, this silk, originating from a waste product and not being from an animal kept captive or killed, would indeed be vegan.
Obviously this is not a mass production product, nor particularly commercial, but it will make a great piece of art.
Do you want to help me, and the amazing artist Mikey Georgeson, who is collaborating with me on this project, achieve our aim?

I and the moths thank you enormously!
