| Summary: | In today’s technological era, we can see the rise of interestingly new and creative
creations and inventions that help promote Malaysia to the rest of the world including
the art of textile. Malaysia is a country with own unique textile identity. Due to the
impact of globalization and modernization in Malaysia, traditional Malay art is worried
might eventually becoming irrelevant and unattractive to most Malaysian. ‘Telepuk’ is
one of the examples of traditional heritage that’s fading from Malay culture. This art
form is facing extinction, unless necessary measures are taken to preserve and change
traditional techniques and give it a fresh, contemporary feel. The creation and usage of
textile can be the perfect link to create, express and maintain a culture as it shows
spirituality, symbolism and tradition. This is where the role of education can help instil
and educate young generations especially students to love and appreciate art works
created by its own people rather than others. Hence, the researcher uses art-based
research study to give emphasis on the suitable media and technique for practising the
art of telepuk in visual arts lesson. This study is an art-based research that focuses on
examining the artistic process. The assimilation of both the stencil and resist techniques
can indefinitely inject a newer and contemporary method in producing the ‘telepuk’
textile |
