Silk is a beautiful gift from nature that has been cultivated for over 3,500 years and enjoyed for over 4,000 years. From India and China ancient colorants and resist techniques were developed to embellish the silk women clothing and silk scarves and shawls. The wax resist techniques of India have been documented back to the second century A.D. and 200 years later the wax techniques filtered into Java, which became the center of the batik industry.
Gutta is probably a more recent development in the history of resist techniques, but the origin of the craft remains something of a mystery. One could surmise that the craft has its origins in the Indonesian islands, where the pallaquium tree (from which gutta-percha is obtained) grows naturally. Resist techniques have long been part of the culture and industry of this region. There are a lot of unanswered questions about how the craft of silk painting spread to other parts of the world. Nevertheless, as a team of silk painters we found that it very interesting to know about the more recent developments: how gutta and related techniques of silk painting eventually reached the North America and how this beautiful craft evolved into the diverse medium it has become today.
