Aboriginal Aesthetic – Ethnic Miao Hand Wax Batik Art


This aboriginal yet passionate wax batik painting is hand created by an ethnic Miao lady artist (or Hmong, same rooted) using traditional wax knife to draw. Miao is a very artistry tribe rooted in the remote mountainous Southwest China. They enjoy expressing their artistic talent and aesthetic in the form of batik art (as well as embroidery and silver ornament). You will find many creative figures and geometric shapes that are all aboriginal, with abstract symbols and totems that could be traced some 2000 years ago.

Miao batik is all manual and the process is rather tedious. It involves wax drawing (with traditional wax knife using beeswax), repetitive dyeing and wax melting. This technique could be dated back to Han Dynasty (220 AD). It was lost among mainstream Chinese but kept very well by ethnic Miao, where United Nation (UN) has named Miao batik costume as one of the world cultural relics. With its aboriginal technique and distinctive style, this ethnic artwork would be a nice addition to flourish your home.


“Miao batiks are plain, naive, rough and powerful. Its shapes, not confining to exact details of natural images, are boldly diversified and exaggeratedly drawn, making it look vivid and passionate!!”
