Rita Trefois

Belgium 

Batik

Cotton, reactive dyes, resin, plywood

 


Rita’s passion for batik grew from previous studies in textile chemistry and ornamental art in the early 1970s
  and has fostered in her the conflict between technical skills and free creation.

A subtle balance between thirsty fabric, hot liquid wax and dye opened an exciting world for Rita, in which the technique was tested in all its facets.

Somewhere halfway, between skill and inspiration, she creates a field of tension where works of art flourish.

To this day she has been able to perfect her capability to capture her emotions in modern paintings.

She also likes to pass on her experiences during training courses and short workshops in her own studio or as a guest teacher at  home and abroad.

This Batik can be seen at High Five Art in Baarle Nassau

The below batik is on show in Leiden at Galerie Zone
