Final art work |
BACKGROUND
STUDY
I am very interested in the world of art
that is increasing. By this I choose an article related to pattern batik. So,
what is batik???Batik is a type of cloth.
Evidence
of early examples of batik has been found in the Far East, Middle East, Central
Asia and India from over 2000 years ago. It is conceivable that these areas
developed independently, without the influence from trade or cultural
exchanges. However, it is more likely that the craft spread from Asia to the
islands of the Malay Archipelago and west to the Middle East through the
caravan route. Batik was practised in China as early as the Sui Dynasty (AD
581-618). These were silk batiks and these have also been discovered in Nara,
Japan in the form of screens and ascribed to the Nara period (AD 710-794). It
is probable that these were made by Chinese artists. They are decorated with
trees, animals, flute players, hunting scenes and stylised mountains.
No evidence of very old cotton batiks have
been found in India but frescoes in the Ajunta caves depict head wraps and
garments which could well have been batiks. In Java and Bali temple ruins
contain figures whose garments are patterned in a manner suggestive of batik.
By 1677 there is evidence of a considerable export trade, mostly on silk from
China to Java, Sumatra, Persia and Hindustan. In Egypt linen and occasionally
woollen fabrics have been excavated bearing white patterns on a blue ground and
are the oldest known and date from the 5th century A.D. They were made in
Egypt, possibly Syria. In central Africa resist dyeing using cassava and rice
paste has existed for centuries in the Yoruba tribe of Southern Nigeria and
Senegal.
Indonesia, most particularly the island of
Java, is the area where batik has reached the greatest peak of accomplishment.
The Dutch brought Indonesian craftsmen to teach the craft to Dutch warders in
several factories in Holland from 1835. The Swiss produced imitation batik in
the early 1940s. A wax block form of printing was developed in Java using a
cap.
By the early 1900s the Germans had developed
mass production of batiks. There are many examples of this form of batik as
well as hand-produced work in many parts of the world today. Computerisation of
batik techniques is a very recent development.
Until now the pattern of batik is got most of
the pattern not only the pattern in trees, animals, flute players, hunting
scenes and stylised mountains, they got most the pattern and use the concept of
line, space, pattern and colour….
In this project I
choose the pattern batik to be mine material and most I use the style in Indonesia,
Malaysia and fashion.
Descriptions of My Poster
My poster
is preview about the pattern of batik. From an artiste’s point pattern is view about
an underlying structure that organizes surfaces or structures in a consistent,
regular manner. Pattern can be described as a repeating unit of shape or form,
but it can also be thought of as the "skeleton" that organizes the parts
of a composition. At this project I use the animal, plant and line to be mine
material and at the research I found got many the pattern of batik the draw the
animal is good at nice in the shape. So that I choose it the animal be mine
frist material,the plant just the idea I get it with a cartoon Chinese[Q ban
san guo yan yi]and [mo fa a ma].The line is the idea come from my lecturer MDM
NOR TIJIAN. Hope you all like it mine art work.
