Student Batiks
This exhibit of student batiks was on display until Feb 17th. Hapnot students created these dynamic hangings with cotton, dye and wax and used traditional dye baths with a beeswax resist.
The process began with the class looking at symbols and images that spoke of the 60’s Flower Power decade. From that starting point they looked for ideas that they might use for inspiration. Some students stayed with their initial inspiration and others moved on to their own imagery.
The patterns, words and images were drawn out on large sheets of newsprint and then transferred to cotton with conte crayon. Wax was then heated in reused electric frying pans from the Home Ec program. After the wax was applied the hangings were either placed in a dye bath or scrunched up, tied and squeezed into small containers for a crumple dye with two different coloured dyes. The young artists then made the decision to continue with a second dye bath and waxing or to finish the process.
Finishing the process involved rinsing, drying, ironing out the wax and sewing the hanging sleeve by hand. Sewing and ironing were new skills for some!
