- Batik - Batik is a traditional dyeing technique used to create patterns on textiles. It originated in Indonesia, but it is now practiced in many other countries around the world. The process of creating batik involves coating a fabric with wax and then dyeing it. The wax resists the dye, so the areas of the fabric that are coated with wax remain the original colour. The fabric is then coated with wax again, and a different colour dye is applied. This process is repeated until the desired pattern is achieved. The wax is then removed, either by boiling the fabric or by using solvents, to reveal the final design. Batik is used to create a wide range of products, including clothing, home furnishings, and decorative items.
