ART TEXTILE DESIGN WITH AN EMPHASIS ON BATIK TECHNIQUE

Diplomsko delo z naslovom Umetniško oblikovanje tekstilij s poudarkom na tehniki batika je nastalo iz želje po raziskovanju tega načina ustvarjanja. Teoretični del je namenjen raziskavi tehnike batik, postopku nanašanja voska, ki je rezervirno sredstvo, in načinu barvanja tekstilij. Opisan je tudi zgodovinski okvir ter vplivi na razvoj postopka. Predstavljen je simbolizem v kitajski umetnosti in batiku. Tehnika batik je predstavljena kot možnost umetniškega izražanja. V teoretičnem delu je predstavljen slikar Raoul Dufy, ki se je ukvarjal z umetniškim oblikovanjem tekstilij. Pri nas se na tak način umetniško izraža Vera Sešlar Založnik. V razgovoru z njo in pri raziskovanju njenega dela sem dobila navdih in ideje za realizacijo praktičnega dela naloge. Vpogled v njena dela mi je odprl nov način razmišljanja in pristop k tehniki. Praktični del predstavlja moje lastno delo praktične uporabe tehnike batik, pri kateri sem s pomočjo čebeljega voska in barv za tekstil ustvarila različne batike.The thesis entitled Artistic Textile Design with an Emphasis on the Batik Technique originates from the desire to explore this method of artistic creation. The theoretical part presents the batik technique, the process of applying wax as a means of reserve, and various methods of dying textiles. It also outlines the historical context and the impact on the development process as well as symbolism in Chinese art and batik. Furthermore, the batik technique is presented as a means of artistic expression. The theoretical part presents the work of Raoul Dufy, the painter who has researched the artistic textile design. In Slovenia, the artist Vera Sešlar Založnik uses such artistic approach. Upon an interview with the artist and an in depth research of her work, I drew inspiration for my own ideas of realization of batik panting for the practical part of my diploma. The insight into her artistic expression triggered in me a new way of thinking and approach to the batik technique. The practical part presents my own artistic work and demonstrates practical application of the techniques of batik, in which I used beeswax and dyes to create a variety of batiks
