Immerse in the rich history of batik and make your own masterpiece.
Batik is more than a decorative art - it’s a centuries-old storytelling craft, where patterns, symbols, and wax come together to create something deeply personal. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll be introduced to the rich history and meaning behind traditional Indonesian batik, while learning the same techniques artisans have passed down through generations.Guided by a patient local artist, you’ll experience the full batik-making process from start to finish. Using a traditional tjanting, you’ll apply hot wax to fabric, dye it in vibrant colours, and slowly watch your design come to life layer by layer. The process is calm, almost meditative - a chance to slow down and connect with an ancient art form in a modern setting.What makes this experience especially rewarding is the final transformation. Your batik artwork is assembled into a glowing table lamp - every time it’s switched on, it tells a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and something you made entirely by hand.What to ExpectCreate your own batik designs on fabric using provided templatesMaster how to apply wax to your design with a traditional tjantingImmerse yourself in the colourful world of batik dyeingAssemble your design into a charming table lamp (comes with a USB plug)Learn about the rich history of batik from a passionate local artistBirthday CelebrationsIf you are celebrating a birthday, let us know in the comments section of the booking form!

Iolana started this workshop in 2024 to share the beauty of a traditional artisanal technique with others. With a hands-on approach, she guides participants through the process, from handling the tjanting for waxing to basic dye painting. It’s not just about creating batik—it’s about self-expression, discovery, and even a bit of self-healing. Beyond the workshop, Iolana collaborates with artisans in Indonesia, helping to support their craft and livelihood. Her thoughtful approach and genuine connection to the art make the experience both meaningful and memorable.
