Summary

With this book, B. Forman conveys the great fascination that emanates from Indonesian textile art: batik, the modest dyeing of the entire fabric.
Ikat, where the yarn is dyed before weaving and then, as if by a miracle, an astonishing pattern is created.
And the so-called ship cloths from South Sumatra, a textile art that is also mastered by very few there.
A richly illustrated book that illustrates the symbolism of the motifs and lets us enjoy the rich aesthetics of the cultural tradition of Indonesia.
