Gratitude 33’’ x 70’’ Batik 2003 |
Simplified forms and geometrical designs, this tri-panel batik shows the states leading up to gratitude. We see the figure of a man who is distraught, but through reflection he finds an answer and then rejoices for his new-found enlightenment. I tried to accentuate the limited palette of batik, emphasizing how a monochrome work can evoke the same aesthetic qualities of a work that uses the whole spectrum. |
While I normally work with form, this batik is meant to
be purely decorative. I used
a wooden stamp for the border and paintbrushes for the inner design.
It can either be a wall hanging or worn as a skirt.
