Indonesian Batik : A Living Heritage

I'm always impressed with this artwork: Batik. yes, no objects of cultural heritage of Indonesia has always managed to hypnotize me while enjoying the 'they' were displayed or exhibited.

I was reminded of when I learn how about making a batik. It is very tiring. starts from sketching, sketching move up the fabric, giving the wax with a canting, dipped into the dye, and sagging. It is the experience and lessons learned are very valuable, because with direct experience, I was able to appreciate against the work.

I recently visited a batik exhibition in Jakarta, precisely at the National Gallery in Central Jakarta. exhibition was a group exhibition that marks the good relations between Indonesia-German in the field of culture. yap, batik not only to be appreciated by Indonesia. and I also greatly admire the works of batik that had been created by European artists who participated in the exhibition. here are some photos when I do visit:
