Download or read book Weavers' Stories from Island Southeast Asia written by Roy W. Hamilton and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaver's Stories from Island Southeast Asia delves into the personal stories of individual textile artists, bringing recognition to their accomplishments, skills, and extraordinary lives. Photographs of ten women from eight locations in the Southeast Asian archipelago along with examples of their weaving are accompanied by a DVD showing them at work. The book is part of a project to bring stories from the lives of Southeast Asian weavers and batik makers to an American audience, using video as the main component. Although the makers of textiles are generally not named in American museum collections, the creation of textiles is not anonymous in Southeast Asian communities. Senior artists are held in public esteem, and the cloth they produce is instantly recognizable to local people as their unique product.

Download or read book Textiles of Southeast Asia written by Robyn J. Maxwell and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created from an extensive range of locally produced and imported raw materials, and designed using an astonishing number of techniques--including different types of appliqué, decorative weaving, tie-dying, batik, and embroidery--Southeast Asian textiles are used to fashion an extraordinary variety of objects, ranging from everyday clothing to sacred and ceremonial costumes. This authoritative study focuses on the interplay between indigenous Southeast Asian traditions and the external cultural forces that have been a crucial part of the historical development and changing nature of the region's textile traditions. Maxwell considers the various ways Southeast Asian textile artisans reacted to the new ideas and raw materials from outside regions. The social, cultural, and religious dimensions of this art, the factors that condition how people create textiles, the way these are used, and the meaning of motifs and symbol are explored in detail. Including examples of textiles--some in categories that have never before been published--this reference work is a valuable contribution to the field of ethnographic textiles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey with fifteen scholars to Southeast Asia and neighbouring countries to discover the hidden meanings behind traditional textiles. Throughout Asia, textiles have played an important role in concepts of power and kingship and are also closely associated with shamanistic, Buddhist and Islamic beliefs. The papers presented in this work represent knowledge and research of leading scholars from around the world who participated in The James H W Thompson Foundation symposium in August, 2005. Diana K Myers compares Bhutanese and Southeast Asian textiles, Gillian Green covers Cambodian hangings, John Guy, Roy Hamilton and Robyn Maxwell discuss different aspects of Indonesian textiles, while Susan Conway investigates Shamanistic practices among the Shan. Barbara and David Fraser, Vibha Joshi and Piriya Krairiksh research the textiles of three other minority groups in Myanmar, while Patricia Cheesman and Linda McIntosh take us on a journey to Laos. For Thailand, Leedom Lefferts and Suriya Smutkupt look at links between Buddhism and textiles, while Thirabhand Chandrachareon discusses royal Thai brocades. Finally, Michael Howard shows how the Tai peoples of Vietnam use textiles to denote status and religion. 300 colour illustrations

Download or read book インドネシア・スラウェシ島の染織 written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people of Sulawesi wear ritual costumes and the deceased as well as the place where a ritual is conducted are decorated with "Sacred Cloths". The textiles made by the indigenous people or brought in from the neighboring islands or foreign countries are treasured; and they have been inherited from generation to generation as heirlooms that serve the function of bond between people and gods. The exhibition will introduce not only the dramatic warp ikat woven ritual cloths and the batik resist-dyeing banners that formed the image of Toraja textiles until now, but also tablet weaving textiles that have hardly been known till now as well as ceremonial cloths that were woven by techniques which cannot be compared with that of any other technique in the world. The exhibits at this exhibition consist of works from the Keiko Kusakabe collection. Ms. Kusakabe has collected each work while researching various textile techniques that unfolded in Sulawesi Island.
