  • 1 SUMMARY the Shibori, Batik and Ikat Techniques Are Known As Resist
    SIMBOL ŞI TEHNICĂ ARHAICĂ-RAPEL ÎN CREAłIA CONTEMPORANĂ BITAY ECATERINA 1 SUMMARY The Shibori, Batik and Ikat techniques are known as resist dyeing techniques. „Shibori” is actually an old name of the Tie-dye technique, a widespread expression in the hippie communities of the 60’s – 70’s period, when this technique had a great success also among the fashion designers, making a spectacular comeback, after a long period of sporadic isolation in certain areas of the world, especially in Japan, Africa and South America. The first textiles found by archaeologists are so old that we may say that world history could be read in the nations’ textiles. The rise of the civilizations and the fall of the empires are woven and printed on the scarves and the shrouds of the great conquests main characters. Archaeological diggings revealed signs of these traditions of 5000 years old. Religion, traditions, myths, superstitions and rituals are closely related to the textiles belonging to many nations of Eastern Asia, Asia Minor, and of the Pacific Islands, their aesthetic value being, more than once, secondary. CHAPTER 1 THE SHIBORI TECHNIQUE The origin of the word “Shibori” is the verb “shiboru” which means to wring, to twist, to press. Even if “shibori” refers to a particular group of resist dyeings, the word’s origin suggests the cloth manipulation process and it can comprise modern methods of dyeing which involve the same type of cloth treatment, possibly without pigments or treatment with pigments applied by using totally different methods than the ancient ones. Shibori can be divided in many ways: according to the areas where it is used, such as Japan, China, India, Africa, Indonesia, South America or according to the details usesd in the technique.

  • Batik Wax Instructions
    Instructions Batik Wax Batik: A History Although its exact origin is uncertain, the earliest known batiks were discovered in Egyptian tombs dating back to the 4th century BCE. Wax-resist techniques were probably developed independently by disparate cultures throughout the ancient world. By the seventh century AD, patterning fabric using resists such as wax was a widespread practice throughout Asia and Africa and was perhaps most fully developed as an artform in Indonesia, where batik predates written records. By the thirteenth century, it became a highly respected art form and pastime for the women of Java and Bali, as recognizable motifs, patterns and colors became signifiers of one’s family and geographical area. Distinct styles and traditions proliferated and spread with the exchange of cultures through trade and exploration (see the “inland” and “coastal” batiks of Java, for instance — the two traditions couldn’t be more different). In the seventeenth century, as the world grew smaller, batik was introduced in Holland and other parts of Europe, where it became increasingly fashionable. Europeans and Americans traveling and living in the East encountered the ancient process and brought it back to their homelands — and spread it to colonies far away — where new traditions of batik branched out. Today, art schools across the United States and Europe offer batik courses as an essential part of their textile curricula.

  • Textile Printing
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 6399 Weston Parkway, Cary, North Carolina, 27513 • Telephone (919) 678-2220 ISP 1004 TEXTILE PRINTING This report is sponsored by the Importer Support Program and written to address the technical needs of product sourcers. © 2003 Cotton Incorporated. All rights reserved; America’s Cotton Producers and Importers. INTRODUCTION The desire of adding color and design to textile materials is almost as old as mankind. Early civilizations used color and design to distinguish themselves and to set themselves apart from others. Textile printing is the most important and versatile of the techniques used to add design, color, and specialty to textile fabrics. It can be thought of as the coloring technique that combines art, engineering, and dyeing technology to produce textile product images that had previously only existed in the imagination of the textile designer. Textile printing can realistically be considered localized dyeing. In ancient times, man sought these designs and images mainly for clothing or apparel, but in today’s marketplace, textile printing is important for upholstery, domestics (sheets, towels, draperies), floor coverings, and numerous other uses. The exact origin of textile printing is difficult to determine. However, a number of early civilizations developed various techniques for imparting color and design to textile garments. Batik is a modern art form for developing unique dyed patterns on textile fabrics very similar to textile printing. Batik is characterized by unique patterns and color combinations as well as the appearance of fracture lines due to the cracking of the wax during the dyeing process. Batik is derived from the Japanese term, “Ambatik,” which means “dabbing,” “writing,” or “drawing.” In Egypt, records from 23-79 AD describe a hot wax technique similar to batik.

Pendekar Sanders had a very successful seminar in Ireland with Guru Liam McDonald on May 15-16, a very large and successful seminar at Guru Besar Jeff Davidson’s school on June 5-6 and he just returned from a seminar in England. The seminar at Guru Besar Jeff Davidson’s was video taped and the 2 volume set can be purchased through Raja Naga. Tape 1 consists of blakok (crane) training and Tape 2 has about 15 minutes more of blakok training followed by a very intense training session in various animal possessions including the very rare Raja Naga possession. Guru Besar Davidson and his students should be commended on their excellent portrayal of the art. Tape 1 is available to the general public, but due to the intense nature of tape 2 you must be a student. It is with great sadness that I must report that Guru William F. Birge passed away. William was a long time personal student of Pendekar Sanders and he will be missed by all of the people that he came into contact with. 1 Tribute to Guru William F.

    MUDRA Jurnal Seni Budaya Volume 35, Nomor 2, Mei 2020 p 133 - 138 P- ISSN 0854-3461, E-ISSN 2541-0407 Shifting of Batik Clothing Style as Response to Fashion Trends in Indonesia Tyar Ratuannisa¹, Imam Santosa², Kahfiati Kahdar3, Achmad Syarief4 ¹Doctoral Study Program of Visual Arts and Design, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Jl. Ganesa 10 Bandung, Indonesia 2,3,4Faculty of Visual Arts and Design, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Jl. Ganesa 10 Bandung, Indonesia. [email protected] Fashion style refers to the way of wearing certain categories of clothing related to the concept of taste that refers to a person’s preferences or tendencies towards a particular style. In Indonesia, clothing does not only function as a body covering but also as a person’s style. One way is to use traditional cloth is by wearing batik. Batik clothing, which initially took the form of non -sewn cloth, such as a long cloth, became a sewn cloth like a sarong that functions as a subordinate, evolved with the changing fashion trends prevailing in Indonesia. At the beginning of the development of batik in Indonesia, in the 18th century, batik as a women’s main clothing was limited to the form of kain panjang and sarong. However, in the following century, the use of batik cloth- ing became increasingly diverse as material for dresses, tunics, and blouses.This research uses a historical approach in observing batik fashion by utilizing documentation of fashion magazines and women’s magazines in Indonesia. The change and diversity of batik clothing in Indonesian women’s clothing styles are influenced by changes and developments in the role of Indonesian women themselves, ranging from those that are only doing domestic activities, but also going to school, and working in the public.

  • Habitus of Culture: Retaining Batik's Identity Amidst the Modernization
    Habitus of Culture: Retaining Batik’s Identity amidst the Modernization Kamsidjo Budi Utomo. Ebnan Syarif, Universitas Negeri Semarang [email protected] Abstract Amidst the rapid modernization, Batik is now considered old-fashioned and less favored; as an icon of traditional textile art, Batik has been inferior in keeping up with current demands of a so-called “modern” society. The quick-spreading fad of kekinian (or „trendy‟, „hype‟) has been more familiar to the younger generation. This phenomenon calls for a critical outlook on the “metaphysics of presence” that lays its foundation on the principle of aesthetics. To this growing lifestyle, perfections in life are achieved by expediency and pragmatism. Contrary to that, batik offers traditionalistic, symbolic approach of representing meaning; therefore, it becomes less popular compared to the recent trends. This study, however, sees the relevance of raising the discourse of batik in the midst of recent trends by approaching it from the lens of cultural pluralism that highlights its emphasis on a nation‟s “character”. However, in lieu of mere attempt of “reviving” the relevance of batik, this study aims further to discuss batik‟s true nature and the development of its existence throughout the advancement of culture and science. Keywords : Batik Education, Habitus of Culture, Philosophy of Batik 1. Batik’s motifs There has been much debate over the history of batik: its origins, motifs, and dyeing techniques. People all over the world, from Latin America, up to India and Indonesia‟s neighbor, Malaysia, has been claiming about their respective cultures to be the birthplace of batik as one of the oldest fabric tie-dyeing techniques.
