Batik Printing
Batik printing is a traditional textile art form that originated in Indonesia. It involves applying wax to fabric to create intricate patterns and designs. The areas covered in wax resist dye, allowing for a unique combination of colors and motifs. This technique can be used on various fabrics, including cotton and silk.
The process of Batik typically includes several steps: applying the wax, dyeing the fabric, and removing the wax to reveal the final design. Each piece is often handmade, making every item unique. Batik is not only a craft but also a cultural expression, reflecting the history and traditions of the regions where it is practiced.
