What’s New

Now, let’s get to explore the unique and distinct fabric designs of Southeast Asia
and be amazed of the wonders of creations bringing out the best of their traditions, beliefs
and identify as Southeast Asian Nation.

LESSON 1: FABRIC/FABRIC DESIGN

Thailand

Thai silk is produced from the cocoons of Thai silkworms. It is

mainly produced in Khorat which is the center of the silk industry
in Thailand. Thai weavers from this region raise the caterpillars
on a steady diet of mulberry leaves.

Today, Thai silk making is considered to be one of the finest arts

in the world, a product of a unique manufacturing process and
bearing unique patterns and colors.

Cambodia https://bit.ly/2BWYziI

Silk weaving in Cambodia dates to as early as the first century since textiles were used for
trading. Modern textiles have traces of motifs imitating clothing details on ancient stone
sculptures.

160There are two main types of Cambodian weaving:

1. ikat technique (Khmer term: chongkiet) - To create patterns, weavers tie and

dye portions of weft yarn before weaving begins. Patterns are diverse and
vary by region; common motifs include lattice, stars, and spots.

2. uneven twill - It yields single or two-color fabrics, which are produced by

weaving three threads so that the "color of one thread dominates on one side
of the fabric, while the two others determine the color on the reverse side."

Traditionally, Cambodian textiles have employed natural dyes coming from:

2  
 
 a. insect nests - Red dye

b. indigo - Blue dye

c. prohut bark- Yellow and Green dye

d. ebony bark- Black dye

Cambodia's modern silk-weaving centers

are Takeo, Battambang, BeanteayMeanchey, Siem Reap, and Kampot

provinces.

Silk-weaving has been revived in the past ten years and now provides employment

for many rural women. Cambodian silk is generally sold domestically, where it
is used in sampot (wrap skirts), furnishings, and pidan (pictoral tapestries).
Now, it has seen an increase in export viability.

Cotton textiles have also played a significant role in Cambodian culture. Though

today, Cambodia imports most of its cotton, traditionally woven cotton

remains

popular. Rural women often weave homemade cotton fabric, which is used in

garments and for household purposes. Krama, the traditional check scarves
worn almost universally by Cambodians, are made of cotton.

Laos

According to Lao tradition, stories of their history were not passed

on orally nor was it written, they were woven. Strand by strand, Lao
stories were weaved in the intricate dense patterns and motifs of textiles.
Unfortunately some are elaborately fantastic, and

the motifs so cryptic, that in many cases only the weaver can accurately
interpret the story.

Most diverse of these stories are the ones woven into a sihn—the Lao
women’s ankle-long skirt whose form is undeniable but whose patterns
are unique to each skirt. https://bit.ly/2YKLWjC

3  
 
 Though the skirt looks simple and elegant, it is traditional that every woman in Laos
weaves all the sihns she would wear throughout her lifetime.She uses folk icons to express
personal views. This is often accomplished by symbolist totems from the inanimate or

animate world—crabs for resourcefulness, snakes for fertility, butterflies for beauty, birds for
success, and so on.

Vietnam

Vietnam Golden Thread Silks were born in Vietnam.

Many of our Vietnamese fabrics originated from Ha
Dong, the center of weaving and sericulture (silk worm
production) for centuries. Old jacquard looms are still
used, weaving patterns containing centuries-old symbols
and characters.

Golden Thread Silks were born in Vietnam. Many of our Vietnamese fabrics originated from
Ha Dong, the center of weaving and sericulture (silk worm production) for centuries. Old
jacquard looms are still used, weaving patterns containing centuries-old symbols and
characters.

Some popular Vietnamese fabric ranges are:

1. Shantung taffeta

2. Bengaline weave

3. Ebony satin - an all-natural lustrous silk hand-woven in southern Vietnam and naturally
dyed using ebony fruit pods. The fabric dates back over a century, but was only recently
revitalized by the designer Vo Viet Chung.

Indonesia, Malaysia& Singapore

The fabric most common to both countries is the

Batik. The term “batik” is an Indonesian Malay word,
believed to be related to the Malay word “titik”, which
means ‘point’,‘dot’ or‘drop’. The “drop” action refers to the
process of dyeing the fabric by making use of a Resist
technique: covering areas of cloth with a dye-resistant
substance (usually hot wax) to prevent them from absorbing colors. https://bit.ly/3icbZrH

4  
 
This technique is has been taught for over a thousand years.

There are two categories of batik design

1. geometric motifs

2. free form designs

https://bit.ly/3icbZrH

Modern batik designs depend on the creativity of their designers. Naturalistic motifs like
leaves, flowers and birds have been utilized to create elaborate and intricate design.

Modern designs also include more colors, courtesy of chemical dyes, as artists

are not bounded by the strict guidelines of traditional practices, when craftsmen were

dependent on natural dyes.

In Malaysia, the states of Kelantan and

Terengganu are considered the cradle where batik first
flourished, reaching even Singapore’s shores.

There are two main types of batik that are

produced there:

1. Handpainted- the artist uses

the canting, a small copper container https://bit.ly/2YMNYj9
with one or more different-sized pipes.

2. Blockprinted- done by welding together strips of metal to form a

metal lock. The metal block is then dipped into molten wax and
https://bit.ly/3geGVpn pressed against the fabric in order to make a pattern.

Leaves and flowers in Malaysian batiks are incorporated to avoid the interpretation
of human and animal images as idolatry, in accordance with local Islamic doctrine. This
makes their batik look similar to that of Indonesia. However, the Malaysian batik is famous
for its geometrical designs or spirals. The method of Malaysian batik making is also different
from those of Indonesian Javanese batik. Their patterns are larger and simpler. More brush

5  
 
painting is applied to be able to put lighter and more vibrant colors than deep colored
Javanese batik.

In Singapore, the existence and use of batik has been recorded since the 12th
century but has receded in popularity through the years. Nowadays, batik is featured in

as the uniform of flight attendants for the official flag carrier airlines of Singapore, Indonesia,
and Malaysia.

Brunei

Brunei's traditional textile is also called batik but it is

uniquely different from Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Its
designs have their national flower simpur, sumboi-sumboi
(pitcher plant), and Brunei's traditional design of air muleh.

Different techniques are used in Brunei’s batik like

airbrushing, cracking, bubble, rainbow, sprinkle, geometry, and
marble. These techniques are applied on the fabrics like cotton,
chiffon, linen, and brocade. Hand-made batik designs are created
through the art of layering and mixing of colors injected with
creativity. Hand-made batik designs are created through the art of
layering and mixing of colors injected with

creativity. https://bit.ly/2AjqN6L

Batik can be done in four different ways:

1. hand-drawn

2. using metal blocks

3. screen printing

4. digital printing

A. Arts and crafts

Sky Lantern Festival of Thailand

These are handmade, with the bases typically

made of a slice of the trunk of a banana tree or a loaf
of bread and ornately decorated with banana leaves,
flowers, and incense sticks. Although the Lantern
Festival is celebrated everywhere in Thailand, Chiang
Mai will have the best (and most famous) views of
https://bit.ly/2CP1zxM thousands of lanterns being released into the sky all
at once. When you release your lantern or krathong into a river or into the sky, you are
supposed to wish all your problems and bad luck away with it as it is a symbol of new
beginnings. The festival has also become popular with couples, wishing for a happy life or
marriage together and releasing their krathong at the same time. Many Thai people will also
include coins in their krathongs as an offering to the water spirits and Buddha. But it is
known that some people will dive into the river after the celebrations to steal these coins. Loi
Krathong takes place on the first full moon in the month of November, this year being on
November 13th. Celebrations will begin at sundown on the day of the full moon.

Cambodia handicraft
Cambodia was once famous for its gems
and kramas (like scarves) but has now added
carvings, other textiles, lacquerware, and
paintings to its list of popular arts and crafts for
sale. The information below will inform you about
what types of art and craft are available, and
where to seek them out.

 Silk painting is the traditional Vietnamese art of
silk painting which originates from painting and drawing
on homemade rice paper. Today this art has become
famous around the world for its simple poetic themes
and vibrant colors. Vietnamese artists find the technique
to be a unique way to create mystique in their paintings.
The Vietnamese style of silk painting emphasizes
softness, elegance and has a flexibility of style. The
success of a silk painting very much depends on the
quality of the silk.

https://bit.ly/2CTPQy1

Wayang kulit is a traditional form of puppet-shadow

play originally found in the cultures of Java, Bali,
and Lombok in Indonesia. In a wayang kulit performance,
the puppet figures are rear-projected on a taut linen screen
with a coconut-oil (or electric) light. The dalang (shadow
artist) manipulates carved leather figures between the lamp
and the screen to bring the shadows to life. It's mainly about
good vs evil.  

Wayang kulit is one of the many different forms

of wayang theatre found in Indonesia; the others
include wayangbeber, wayang klitik, wayang golek, wayang
topeng, and wayang wong. Wayang kulit is among the best
known, offering a unique combination of ritual, lesson and
entertainment. Today, it is spread out, in various forms and
guises, across Asia
from Turkey and China to Thailand and Malaysia. On
https://bit.ly/2ZmthtC November 7, 2003, UNESCO designated wayang kulit from Indonesia
as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

For many thousands of years, the art of stone carving

has flourished in Cambodia. From the small statues
made by local artisans to the famous, breathtaking
carvings found at Angkor Wat, stone carving has
become one of the country's most cherished art
forms. Stone carving has been both a passion and a
livelihood for many a Cambodian sculptor and has, in
recent decades, survived war, genocide (in which
many of the country's artists were murdered by the
Khmer Rouge), and tyranny to be passed on to a
whole new generation of artists. https://bit.ly/2YMUYfW
15  
 
The art of stone carving in Cambodia is one that has a very long, fascinating history which
goes back to the foundation of the Khmer nation.

Wat Pho (the Temple of the Reclining

Buddha), or Wat Phra Chetuphon, is right
behind the Temple of the Emerald Buddha –
it’s a must-see for any first-time visitor to
Bangkok. As one of the largest temple
complexes in the city, it’s famed for its giant
reclining Buddha that is 46 metres long,
covered in gold leaf.

https://bit.ly/3iesJ1

It’s an easy 10-minute walk between here and the Grand Palace, and we recommend
coming to Wat Pho second because even though the golden Buddha here is just as
popular, many people don’t take the time to wander around the rest of the complex,
making for a more relaxing experience. Wat Pho is also a great place to get a
traditional Thai massage. It’s often considered the leading school of massage in
Thailand, so you really are in good hands here.

Vietnamese sculpture has been heavily influence by

three traditional religions: Taoism, Confucianism,
Buddhism, which come from neighbouring countries,
china and india. These statues include couples
embracing, pregnant women, people in mourning,
elephant and birds.

https://bit.ly/38dwrnt  

16  
 
 The art of wood carving is quite well-developed in Indonesia.
Other than tribal art woodcarvings of Asmat, Dayak, Nias,
and Toraja—certain area is well known for its refined wood
carving culture; they are Jepara in Central Java,
and Bali. Mas village near Ubud in Bali is renowned for their
wood carving art. Balinese woodcarving today has a
sustained tourist market in Bali.

https://bit.ly/2VAo4x3  

The Porta De Santiago (A Famosa) is one of the most

popular sites that you can find when visiting Malacca. It is a
major historical landmark and is probably the most
photographed structure in Malacca. The A Famosa is located
just next to the Stadthuys building. The fort of Porta De
Santiago (A Famosa) is one of the oldest surviving European
architectural remains in the whole of Asia. This tiny gate
which we call A Famosa or Porta de Santiago is the last
remains of what used to be a mighty fortress.

Merlion Park - is a famous Singapore landmark and a major

tourist attraction, located near One Fullerton, Singapore, near
the Central Business District (CBD). The Merlion is a mythical
creature with a lion's head and the body of a fish that is
widely used as a mascot and national personification of
Singapore. Two Merlion statues are located at the park. The
original Merlion structure measures 8.6 meters tall and spouts
water from its mouth. It has subsequently been joined by a
Merlion cub, which is located near the original statue and
measures just 2 metres tall.
