  • Hidden Bali Experiences Small-Group Tours That Touch the Heart of Bali
    Hidden Bali Experiences small-group tours that touch the heart of Bali Our Hidden Bali Experiences can be arranged at any time to grant you access to authentic culture that honors tradition and avoids commoditization. Building on more than 20 years of experience of leading culturally sensitive tours in Bali and based on deep relationships with local people and communities, these are intimate 3-day or 4-day tours arranged to fit your travel itineraries and led by expert guides for small groups of 2 to 6 guests. Each experience is themed around a specific aspect of Bali’s heritage, including the Textile Arts, the Festival Cycle, the Performing Arts, and the Natural World. For more information on these Experiences, please visit our website at http://www.threadsoflife.com The Textile Arts Experience The Indonesian archipelago was once the crossroads of the world. For over 3500 years, people have come here seeking fragrant spices, and textiles were the central barter objects in this story of trade, conquest and ancient tradition. An exploration of Bali’s textile art traditions grants us access to this story. Spice trade influences juxtapose with indigenous motifs throughout the archipelago: echoes of Indian trade cloths abound; imagery relates to defining aspects of the local environment; history and genealogy entwine. Uses range from traditional dress, to offerings, to the paraphernalia of marriages and funerals. Our gateway to this world is through the island of Bali, where we steep ourselves in the island’s rich traditions while based at the Umajati Retreat near Ubud. Here we will receive insightful introductions to the local culture, and visit several weavers with which Threads of Life is working to help women create high-quality textiles that balance their desires for sustainable incomes and cultural integrity.

  • 1 SUMMARY the Shibori, Batik and Ikat Techniques Are Known As Resist
    SIMBOL ŞI TEHNICĂ ARHAICĂ-RAPEL ÎN CREAłIA CONTEMPORANĂ BITAY ECATERINA 1 SUMMARY The Shibori, Batik and Ikat techniques are known as resist dyeing techniques. „Shibori” is actually an old name of the Tie-dye technique, a widespread expression in the hippie communities of the 60’s – 70’s period, when this technique had a great success also among the fashion designers, making a spectacular comeback, after a long period of sporadic isolation in certain areas of the world, especially in Japan, Africa and South America. The first textiles found by archaeologists are so old that we may say that world history could be read in the nations’ textiles. The rise of the civilizations and the fall of the empires are woven and printed on the scarves and the shrouds of the great conquests main characters. Archaeological diggings revealed signs of these traditions of 5000 years old. Religion, traditions, myths, superstitions and rituals are closely related to the textiles belonging to many nations of Eastern Asia, Asia Minor, and of the Pacific Islands, their aesthetic value being, more than once, secondary. CHAPTER 1 THE SHIBORI TECHNIQUE The origin of the word “Shibori” is the verb “shiboru” which means to wring, to twist, to press. Even if “shibori” refers to a particular group of resist dyeings, the word’s origin suggests the cloth manipulation process and it can comprise modern methods of dyeing which involve the same type of cloth treatment, possibly without pigments or treatment with pigments applied by using totally different methods than the ancient ones. Shibori can be divided in many ways: according to the areas where it is used, such as Japan, China, India, Africa, Indonesia, South America or according to the details usesd in the technique.

It is part of the formal attire or regalia prominent to a Sultan, King or the Yang DiPertuan Besar in Tanah Melayu states with a monarchy reign. As such, the tengkolok has been classified as a three-dimensional work of art. The objective of this research is to analyses the tengkolok as a magnificent piece of Malay art.

To illustrate this, the author uses a qualitative method of data collection in the form of writing. Results obtained showed that the tengkolok is a sublime creation of art by the Malays. This beauty is reflected in its variety of names and designs.

  • New Textiles Inspired by Ikat - by Christina Maschke Degree Project Master of Fine Arts in Fashion and Textile Design with Specialization in Textile Design
    THE PATTERNED THREAD - new textiles inspired by ikat - by Christina Maschke Degree Project Master of Fine Arts in Fashion and Textile Design with Specialization in Textile Design Title The patterned thread - new textiles inspired by ikat Author Christina Maschke Supervisor Margareta Zetterbloom Opponent Malene Kristiansen Examiner Hanna Landin Report No. 2016.6.05 The Swedish School of Textiles University of Borås Sweden Abstract The work of this MA thesis develops a new ap- proach to hand weaving in which the design pro- cess is led by the technique of resistant dyeing. The process is inspired by the visual properties of traditional ikats. It follows the technical ikat procedure of primary resistant dyeing and sub- sequently weaving. Whithin the research a new way of weaving is explored in which the dyed thread dictates the weaving process and therefore influences the weaving motif. In addition different design variables such as material, binding pattern and finishing are used to push forward the devel- oped concept. The aim of this work is to explore new aesthetic expressions between regular and irregular motifs through the application of design thinking. The result presents an innovative approach in the ikat technique in order to create random distrib- uted patterns and how they can be already influ- enced in the stage of yarn preparation.

    Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture 11 (2017) 305-312 doi: 10.17265/1934-7359/2017.03.010 D DAVID PUBLISHING “A” New Museum of Indonesian Batik: An Architecture of “Showing off” Yuke Ardhiati Architecture Department, Universitas Pancasila, Jakarta, 12640, Indonesia Abstract: For the “A” New Museum of Indonesian Batik, Ivan Saputra was the architect winner of the Museum Design Competition in 2013. Preparation for the competition required architectural design guidelines, which were an important part of the terms of reference for the project. This paper aims to provide an overview of the issues surrounding the work involved in the collaboration work between the Indonesian government and multi-disciplinary participants to establish museum design guidelines for this competition. By articulating and elaborating the characteristics of several famous museums design in the world, by defining relevant architectural theories, and by exploring an in-depth analysis of “batik”, which UNESCO designated as Intangible Heritage of Humanity of UNESCO in 2009, the architectural design guidelines were developed based onfindings revealedby inserting “batik” itself as the museum storyline into contemporary architecture. By referring to trans-disciplinary methods and concepts, then the process of batik making is potentially a kind of architectural “showing off” to expose the uniqueness of Indonesian batik as well as the Architecture-Event theory promoted by French philosopher Jacques Derrida. Key words: Architecture-event, architectural guidelines, Indonesian batik, museum storyline, “showing off”. 1. Introduction strict heritage guidelines result in the fact that museums are limited in regard to museum design. The “Love Our National Museums Movement” According to the author, with such restrictions, the started in the year 2010 as part of Indonesian Museum general public often perceive the final design to be Reform initiative to reform iconic museums.

Made up mainly of limestone and sedimentary rocks, Sumba’s topography con - sists of numerous hills and a plateau covered with grassy savannah interspersed with valleys hollowed out by erosion where gallery forests grow. The climate is hot and arid, except during the rainy season that lasts from December to March. With fewer than 600,000 inhabitants, Sumba boasts one of the low - est population densities in Indonesia. The island is divided into two administrative districts, West and East Sumba; the east has greater ethnic, cultural, and linguistic unity than the western part. 2 The town of Waingapu is the administrative center of East Sumba; it is also its Fig. 1.
