Madeleine McGarrity runs the Cold and Deadly project, investigating the development of an accessible circular system for printing textiles with natural dyes. She is a textile researcher and professional printmaker recently re-located to the Highlands region of NW New Jersey from Brooklyn, New York, where she had worked as a production textile printer and teacher since 2012. In addition to Cold and Deadly, she sustains a small personal studio practice under the moniker Whoopee Hall. After receiving a BFA in Printmaking from the Rhode Island School of Design, she learned about textile printing through work, and natural dyes through personal study. She is passionate about circular production methods, textile history and watershed ecology, all of which influence both her research work and her personal work.
