| Summary: | Indonesia consists of various tribes which makes Indonesia a country with many
cultures. One of the many ancestral heritages in Indonesia is weaving. Cual Bangka,
a woven fabric from Bangka Belitung, is a part of that heritage. Currently, Cual
Bangka is developed by weavers in Pangkal Pinang. The special characteristic of Cual
fabric is that it’s a combination of two hand-woven techniques, tie weaving and sungkit.
Cual woven fabric from Bangka Belitung also has authentic patterns, inspired by
nature like flora and fauna. Cual Bangka fabric has more or less 20 different kind of
patterns. The unique characteristics of Cual fabric can be an opportunity for it to be
elevated and applied into modern fashion. Exploration of surface textile is necessary
in applying Cual Bangka’s motifs into today’s fashion. The surface textile techniques
used to develop Cual decoration in modern fashion are screen printing, beading, and
embroidery. Those techniques are used so that Cual Bangka decorations can be
applied into today’s fashion without losing the characteristics of the Cual fabric itself. |
