{"product_id":"african-abstract-totem-figure-original-batik-on-paper","title":"African Abstract Totem Figure — Original Batik on Paper","description":"\u003cp\u003eSinuous, totemic, and alive with symbolic energy — this original batik on paper is a tall, narrow-format abstract composition of a single intertwined figure rising from base to crown, rendered in bold deep black outlines with intricate hand-drawn pattern details against a shimmering hand-dyed background of pink, yellow, green, and white. The composition is a single continuous flowing form — two bold dark lines twist and interweave around each other from the base of the composition upward like a double helix or DNA strand, their interiors filled with the artist's signature pattern marks: bold concentric spiral motifs, bold zigzag chevron bands, and fine parallel line textures in deep teal and black. At three points along the rising form, bold circle orb forms emerge — a small round head form at the lower left with a bold cross-hatch texture; a larger glowing circle at the centre with a bold yellow-green concentric ring; and at the very top, a wide shallow bowl form with bold oval dot marks around its rim and a bold zigzag band — suggesting a vessel being carried or offered. The background is a glorious hand-dyed field of crackled batik texture in soft pink, yellow, green, and white — the characteristic crackle lines of the wax-resist process creating a luminous, energetic surface. Presented in a tall black frame with wide white mount. A work of great formal elegance and deep symbolic resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal one-of-a-kind artwork — not a print or reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatik on paper — traditional wax-resist hand-dyeing technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubject: abstract intertwined totem figure with vessel crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuminous palette — pink, yellow, green, white \u0026amp; deep black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic batik crackle texture throughout the background\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresented in tall black frame with wide white mount (included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to hang — a perfect statement piece or collector's artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFramed: 20 inches (height) × 10 inches (width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnframed: 12 inches (height) × 4 inches (width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Artisan's Village Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56457578348710,"sku":"ART-055","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/9407\/5302\/files\/IQP_8917.jpg?v=1778448908","url":"https:\/\/shopwithavc.com\/products\/african-abstract-totem-figure-original-batik-on-paper","provider":"Artisan's Village Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
