| Summary: | The Javan gibbon or Hylobates moloch is one of the rare endemic primates of
Indonesia, precisely in West Java. These animals have a role as forest fertiliser
through their digestive waste. The scarcity of Javan gibbons is caused by poaching,
illegal maintenance and logging. The adaptation of the Javan gibbon's body shape
through several adjustments in an urban toy product will be designed as an effort
to increase public awareness of the animal.
Exploration of urban toy materials is carried out using stoneware materials. These
materials have characteristics that are suitable for forming concepts and messages
to preserve the Javan gibbon, as well as opening up business opportunities for
ceramic craftsmen to enter the modern market. The working method will be carried
out using a slip casting technique and decorated using engobe and glaze |
