Malaysian Batik : Reinventing a Tradition
Subject
Batiks Malaysia
Description
Malaysian Batik traces the origins of batik, and the materials, methods and motifs of the block-stamped and hand drawn techniques found there. The batiks in this book feature a bolder, freer design than traditional batiks, with a brighter palette, bringing an exciting new dimension to the ancient art of decorating fabric using molten wax, metal stamp and stylus. This lovely book highlights the ways in which Malaysian batik has been transformed into a craft with international appeal.
