Batik wall hanging, 'Lanna Girl' Summary
Batik wall hanging, 'Lanna Girl'
Batik wall hanging Full Description
2.79 ' W x 3.48 ' H Weight: 0.15 kg -Batik on cotton Ships from NOVICA Office in Thailand NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, searches the world to work directly with the finest artisan designers. Slender and serene, a Lanna (northern Thai) woman holds a basket of blossoms. Dressed in traditional clothing, she is graceful and beautiful. Alaya Cholprasertsuk portrays the girl in batik on 100% cotton cloth using modern, stylized lines and a palette of terracotta tones. Batik is a fabric art in which the cloth is stretched on a wooden frame and the design sketched with a pencil. Then a mixture of melted wax and resin is painted onto areas where color is not desired and the fabric is dipped in a solution of reactive dye, water, salt, and sodium bicarbonate. When the fabric is crumpled into the dying solution, the wax cracks, creating an attractive network of fine lines. The wax is removed and the process is repeated for each color utilized. Finally, the cloth is washed and rinsed to remove any excess dye. Handmade by Alaya Cholprasertsuk "My name is Alaya Cholprasertsuk. I was born in Bangkok on December 7, 1967. My parents worked as professors for the university but are now retired. I was brought up with a loving younger brother. I was introduced to arts very early. When I was a child, I had the chance to study drawing and painting under artists. At home I would constantly practice what they taught me. I also used to participate in Siang Dek (Children's Voice), a newspaper whose writers, artistic directors, and journalists are children. It is a free tabloid-size newspaper issued with the famed Ying Yook Mai (Modern Women) newspaper. I had such a good time there that I then set my mind on becoming a journalist. But after graduating from Kasetsart demonstration high school, I decided to study architecture and arts media at at King Mongkut's Institute of Technology. "After graduation I got a job as a designer for an advertising company.
