Vintage African Folk Art Batik Fabric Painting Art with Mid Century Modern Influence and wooden outer Framing. In good vintage condition and no tears in fabric.
Batik is one of many methodologies of fabric art in long and rich textile tradition. It is a wax-resist type of dyeing operation where certain sections of a textile are pigmented while others are tied-off and shielded from coloring. Batik designs are created in various geometric motifs that have certain symbolism and convey status within society, but now too they use batik methods to achieve what in essence are paintings on fabric. Batik method is an extremely complicated and labor intensive process. This particular scene looks almost tribal in feel, and if we recall correctly, it is conjuring a village scene.
