Working with traditional Indonesian batik techniques, Yuni Kristina creates original patterns for today's modern trends. They are painted by hand on a silk shawl of exquisite elegance.

Crafted from cotton fabric and hand stamped using a traditional wax resist batik process, Jamriang's kimono jacket is them dyed in indigo to give it, its tonal blue motif. The placket and cuffs are finished with a contrast embroidered trim in a palette of strawberry, navy and ivory. Front patch pockets subtly blend into the beautiful all over motif on this unlined kimono.

Erna Gendhis adorns a stunning creation with a warm palette that enhances its unique batik pattern. As an expert in this ancient art, the Javanese artisan crafts this rayon shawl featuring an intricate design in honor of the stunning regional coasts, finishing with little fringes for a vivacious style.

Yuni Kristina draws on millennial Balinese traditions to create this exquisite shawl. Working in batik on silk, she combines modern motifs in red and orange. The elegant patterns are stamped by hand and fringe finishes the lovely wrap.

Each motif is created by hand, as evidenced by the occasional pencil mark or slight color variations.

The Akan civilization believed that each child came from God, and so each baby was born with a special blessing. This traditional belief initiated the Ghanaian day naming system, which gives a unique name to a child born on a particular day of the week, signaling their spiritual traits. Motivated by this custom, artist Emmanuel Atiemoh Yeboah puts his talent into practice and creates this cotton batik wall art, whose stars, moon details and geometric motifs in vibrant hues represent the souls born on Wednesday, the day of those who connect with knowledge.
