The font created here is inspired by the widely famous and world recognised “Batik”print. Batik is an ancient art which uses wax and dyes to create a visual magic on fabrics. It is believed that the term is a derivation from the word "Ambatik" which when translated literally stands for a piece of cloth with small dots or writing with wax or drawing in broken lines. A Batik creation involves 3 steps – waxing, dyeing, and scraping. Overall the process is one where firstly the wax is used for creating designs on certain pre-defined areas on the fabric. Secondly the fabric is dyed and then the wax is removed by scraping or by boiling the cloth so that the wax peels off. The result is a beautiful piece of cloth with some very unconventional designs.
