Regina Ibrahim Indigo exhibition
For the month of August, during George Town festival, Mission House will play host to the Mission Blue โThe Indigo Houseโ Exhibition. It is the pop up gallery and shop housing the Mission Blue exhibition.
Mission house was formerly a Christian missionary HQ in the 19th century. It was abandoned and dilapidated for many years until recently. Now, it was been beautifully restored.
Indigo is known as the colour that took over the world. Nearly every civilisation from the ancient Greeks to the Mayans incorporated the natural dye into their culture, using it for clothing, art and religious devotion. The colour is still considered to be imbued with mystical properties: in Hindu and tantric traditions, the third chakra, (the third eye) is associated with indigo, a colour that is seen to create a direct channel to the subconscious.
