Discover the unique blend of traditional Malaysian batik techniques and modern art as you create your very own batik lantern to take home. Don't worry if you're new to batik, this workshop is designed for beginners, so everyone can join in on the fun!
During this 2-hour workshop, you'll delve into the history and techniques of batik, including the tools and materials needed for batik canting. You'll have the opportunity to experiment with mixing colors to achieve the perfect tones and shades for your batik lantern. With expert guidance from a batik artist, you'll paint on a pre-waxed modern batik lantern and gain valuable tips and tricks along the way. Rest assured, all the materials and tools you'll need are provided.
What to expect:
Discover the vibrant world of Contemporary Batik Artistry with our passionate creator, Shirlyn Low. Working out of her studio in Birmingham, Shirlyn's journey from Architect to Batik Artist is a tale of love and tradition.
Born and raised in Malaysia, she embraced the rich heritage of batik art, learning from skilled artisans and craftsmen across the country. Now, Shirlyn brings a fresh, contemporary twist to this timeless craft, drawing inspiration from the elegance of the art nouveau style.
In a world where the art of batik is gradually fading, Shirlyn Low is on a mission to rekindle the flame. Batik is not just an art form; it's a simple and unique creative process with limitless possibilities. Through her modern interpretation of this traditional craft, she aims to open the door to a broader audience and help them discover the enchantment of batik.
