Dr.Joel Mendez is a well known celebrity in Philippines. He is the founder of the Mendez Medical Group (of Body & Face and Weigh Less Center), President of Philippine Anti-Ageing Medical Society, Laser Medicine Society, Inc., andMesotheraphy Society. In 2002, he opened The Big and Small Art Gallery to support young modern artists so that there is space for them to present their out-of-the-box ideas through the power of visual art.
Dr.Joel Mendez has visited Jadi Batek Gallery many times but this time he brought 12 artists together to try batik drawing. Although this is their first time, the talented artists master the skill very fast. To them, batik is just another way to express their ideas.
They used the wax to draw the outline and color with dye. All of them shared on a piece of 3m silk fabric. The result was amazing. It was totally different from typical Malaysian batik artists with faces, statues, skulls and creative patterns.
It was truly a masterpiece. They will bring it home and show it proudly to their friends in Philippines. Hopefully, someone will buy it as well.
