(D) Batik Art, One Day Workshop, Sun 28th Apr 2024,10:00am - 4:00pm

Batik is a textile decoration method that is popularly used to create fabrics for clothing and domestic décor. Batik art is a technique that uses wax and dye to create stunning patterns on fabric, such as cotton, silk, linen, or rayon. The process is similar in some ways to silk painting but with wax being used in lieu of resist.

From the island of Java in Indonesia batik art goes back to at least the 12th century. By the early 1800s it arrived in Europe, and batik fabric was on display at the Parisian Exposition Universelle in 1900.

This one day workshop is suitable for beginners. Denise will guide you through the process and techniques of Batik and you will be able to take home your own batik art fabric pieces which can be made into wall hangings, cushions or other decorative item.
