Tujia batik
Jan Thu 2024
Have you seen Tuijia batik? The clear and transparent indigo is imbued with the ingenuity of the Tujia people. The exquisite white decoration is like an ink painting, outlining the feelings and stories of the Tujia people.
As one of the three dyeing techniques in ancient China, batik is primitive and simple. It can be divided into two major schools: one is the Tujia batik and the other is Miao batik. Tujia batik focuses on the purity of color matching, pays attention to the original composition, and its artistic style is unique and pure. While Miao batik focuses on pure dyeing and does not pay attention to gorgeous carving, giving people an artistic sense of natural and pure.
With the continuous development of the times, the beauty of batik is no longer covered by the thick glass of the museum. However, it has slowly appeared in people’s vision. The ancient batik skills handed down by the ancestors over the past thousand years have been known to more people.
