What stories can you unearth from a handful of dirt?

The four-person team behind Lantau Earth Palette traces the natural and human histories found in soil samples from across Lantau—then uses those soils to create a rich palette of natural earth pigments.

For this workshop, they’ll let you in on their practice. First, they’ll share stories hidden within the soil, then let you get hands-on with the land. You’ll turn soil collected from the Chi Ma Wan Peninsula into your very own colours, then use the freshly made pigments to paint a postcard inspired by the peninsula’s coastal ecology.
