Indonesian Textile Exhibition


Sometimes back there was an exhibition of Indonesian product and culture conducted in Jakarta. When I visit the exhibition the most interesting thing for me was the textile exhibition. I was just realized that Indonesia has so many variety of textile and they're all has their own beauty. The picture you see above is Batik textile from Java. The motifs of Batik Java is formed by applying molten wax using a tool named canting (the tool is shaped like a pen). It could takes a week to make one of fine Batik Java.

The one below is woven cloth uniquely from Sumba, a region at the east of Indonesia. Beautiful, aren't they?
