EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print showcases a stunning Hinggi textile from Sumba, Indonesia. The Hinggi is a traditional cloth created using the intricate dyeing technique known as ikat. Derived from the Malay word mengikat, meaning "to tie" ikat involves a resist dyeing process similar to tie-dye on either the warp or weft fibers before dyeing. The Hinggi featured in this image was skillfully dyed and woven by an Indonesian School artist. Originally designed as clothing for men, it now serves as a captivating piece of art that represents the rich cultural heritage of Indonesia. The photograph, taken by Luca Tettoni and part of Bridgeman Images' collection, beautifully captures the tapestry's bold colors and repeating patterns. The use of wax resist adds depth and complexity to the overall design. This print is not only visually striking but also provides insight into Asian textile traditions. Its presence can enliven any space with its vibrant hues and exquisite craftsmanship.
