Drying is part of the process in making batik, to make it easy they spread the wet fabric in the open space/land available in their neighborhood.
Here they do it on the river side. They throw the fabric to spread and dry it. With the bright sunlight and wind it dry fast
Save time and save energy :))
Happy New Year 2018, all the best wishes to my Flickr friends

One of the joys of having lived in Indonesia some years ago is the lovely collection of silk batik shawls and scarves I now have. They are glamorous and beautiful, created with such talent, all hand-made.

Batik is an Indonesian technique to colour fabrics using wax drawings and dyeing the fabric multiple times.
Batik on habotai silk - 1m x 1m
This work was created with multi layered spontaneous imagery using wax resist and procion dyes.
Sometimes I have to put the work aside when it's finished, for whatever reason and just live with it for a while to see how I feel about it.
That's often a sign that I'm on to something and I'm asking myself if I've succeeded in creating something authentic and original.
Works like this don't ask for definitions. It's creation is centred in feeling and when I look at it I see how these thoughts, emotions and ideas were playing out and shaping the visual language.
It's chaotic but balanced, with complimentary colours dominating with an organic directional flow running throughout.
Others will see it very differently.
Arrival at stillness doesn't require a total absence of thinking activity.
Instead, it requires not taking thinking activity so very personally and not identifying with it.

Batik on silk - 40cm x 40cm.
Still a work in progress as I want to define the fine marks with one more application of dye colour(s) but I'll wait for a day with better light.

'Inspiration comes from a variety of sources and whilst some works are conventional depictions of the natural world, others are arrived at using a more intuitive and spontaneous approach, responding to memories, dreams, lyrics, conversations'
Mono-printed resist and discharge dyed silk - 63cm x 63cm
This is one of several pieces that have been created through a series of processes designed to help me 'get out of my own way' with work aligned more to feelings and moods which arise as marks are made. Spontaneous responses backed up with confident experimentation.
I didn't care too much for this piece in it's earlier stages as the mono-printed ink was heavy and lacked the dynamic textures that had been created on the other pieces, but later, as the work developed, the darkness became a core feature in itself.
As with all abstract work, interpretations are personal to the viewer.
Who is the creator?
Batik has been both an art and a craft for centuries. In Java, Indonesia, batik is part of an ancient tradition, and some of the finest batik cloth in the world is still made there.

I finally decided on a concentric circle pattern. I'm quite pleased with the results. Instead of marking it I cut out circles from freezer paper, ironed them on, and quilted around them. It went quite quickly but is difficult to keep a smooth arc when stopping and starting. Here is the top before quilting. Another quilt with the same fabrics is here.
Essa técnica de pintura em seda, chamada !onfete", consiste na utilização da parafina (batik) para criar pequenos círculos na seda, muito parecidos com os confetes de carnaval!!

Anyway, I’m traveling for a few days, so after some difficulties with the Flickr app on my iThings I’m now able to post something. When I return I’ll be digging deeper into my film archive.
This fancy hanging is on the wall at mums - and I can vividly remember the day I bought it. A market in the busy streets of Harare, Zimbabwe. I also bought a stone carving - this fabric was much easier to transport!
Happy Smile on Saturday!
