Beaded Antique Batik Exhibition

The Gallery Boutique of Maya Ubud Resort & Spa will feature a unique collection of jewelled batik tapestries designed by Annemarie Kipar from August 17 – September 15, 2009.

German-born Annemarie Kipar decorates her beautiful batik selection with beads, sequins and stones piece by piece, creating beautifully glittering tapestries. Annemarie studied Renaissance Art at Berkeley, found Indonesian batiks to be magical in their intricate design with motifs ranging from imaginative to naïf; mystical to primitive.

Apart from batik, the creative works of Annemarie also include carefully selected fabrics from different parts of the world which she enhances with rich and colorful beads and stones. Each piece of art takes three to four months to complete.

Over the years Annemarie’s tapestries have become collector’s items throughout the world and adorn the homes of such celebrities as Elizabeth Taylor.

The Gallery Boutique of Maya Ubud is proud to display thirty select pieces from this wonderful collection during this exhibition.
