TAPIS


TAPIS is traditional weaving fabric from Lampung. It is distinctive of its strips pattern, gold thread embroidery that have varies motives of flora, fauna, geometric. I like this weaving because it is beautiful and elegant. The colors are predominantly consisted of various brown hues, black, and gold. And of course this handmade weaving takes amount of time to produces.

I love Indonesian textile but unfortunately I can’t effort the real one, so I just collect some book about it to learn and enjoy each of its pattern, meaning, and its beauty. It is nice though, then I can apply it to another form of art, like drawing and graphic art.
