Episode 14 | Dyeing for a Living, with Raylene Marasco, Textile Designer and Founder of Dyenamix

In this episode, we sit down with Raylene Marasco, founder of Dye-namix, a textile studio that creates custom fabrics for film, fashion, and fine art. Today, her work shows up in everything from The Gilded Age and Severance to runway pieces for Giorgio Armani and Ralph Lauren. We speak with Raylene about how her business has evolved over the years and some of the unique projects that have come her way. She’s collaborated with artists like Louise Bourgeois, worked with The Met on textile conservation, and taken on challenging creative briefs across theater, fashion, and film. Early on, she took a leap into digital printing—a move that helped distinguish her work and expand the possibilities of her studio.Raylene has built a practice around solving complex visual problems, scaling hand-crafted techniques into production-ready solutions, and staying deeply involved in the work itself. From her studio in Tribeca, she leads a small team that collaborates with some of the biggest names in the industry—all without ever advertising. We speak with her about the business of making, the value of saying yes before you’re ready, and how she turned a practical skill into a creative career that continues to evolve.Visit www.alifecreativepod.com for links to Dyenamix and to see more of Raylene's work.Follow us @alifecreative on Instagram.For 10% off your next order at www.RowentaUSA.com use ALIFECREATIVE at checkout.
