Fashion Conversation: The Future of Batik

Batik is a masterpiece, a national treasure, an identity. Sadly, it is suffering a slow death. It's no easy task to keep it alive amid changing times and taste. Some, understandably, gave up halfway, daunted by the challenge. So how do we make this traditional art appealing to the younger generation? To produce and to wear. Can we truly succeed in merging traditional values with modern lifestyle? Sabine Bolk, a Dutch artist & batik researcher, Sita Adhisakti, Director R&D, Galeri Batik Jawa Indigo, and Direz, Co-Founder of Bluesville, chat with Tony Sugiarta on astute ways to preserve batik and prepare for the future. #WeAreJFW #JFWTalks #FashionConversation In collaboration with: Erasmus Huis Producer: Nofi Firman Script: Nofi Firman Video Editor: Farid Annas, Christian Sena Graphic Design: Rio Sardjono, Febbie, Rista Aide: Alyssa Tagor, Gabriella Tarida IT Support: Albert Tanjaya ---------------- Please subscribe to our channel for more exclusive content.
