OK. Video - FLESH, 5th Jakarta International Video Festival

Last night I went to the opening of OK. Video FLESH, 5th Jakarta International Video Festival 2011.

They said, "FLESH intends to emphasize the encounter between advancement of audiovisual technology and contemporary society. It is also a metaphor that signifies two aspects: biological entity of human body that transforms into digital entity (images, sounds, and texts) and video that shows its organic characters; grow in virtual spaces across spatial and temporal boundaries, transforms into various medium and progressively reproduces itself by the reason of virality." -OK.

Indonesia World Batik Summit 2011

Last weekend my plan was to go to Bandung, but something came up, so I cancelled it.  My friend needed some help and hey, there's Indonesian World Batik Summit in town :) So I went to Indonesian World Batik Summit. It was great and lots of beautiful batik fabrics. Since my late Eyang Putri love to wear "kebaya & sarung", I love to wear them for weddings invitation and love to collect them as well. 

One of my favorite from last Indonesian World Batik Summit was Sekar Jagad gallery, they're really cool. They curated the collection, very educational.

Parang Barong is my favorite of all time :)

This Parang Klithik is very pretty :)

This Kampuh Parang is very pretty too. They used Kampuh Parang, Slobok & Kawung for death ceremonial in Solo.

 This Cangkring is used for ceremonial in harbors. Everything created by God will come back to God.

And then...let's go to another place...

This beautiful "Sarung" it's a cloth to replace woman's pants. Production year 1870, place of origin: Lasem, influenced by chinese culture.

This one is sarung Pekalongan. Love the design. Production year 1910/1920.

I like this one. It's called "Menuju Sawung".  A view that human beings will go through three realms of life: Alam Gaib, Alam Rame and Alam Sunyaruri.

NTT's never fails me :)

Would love to hang this one day in my room/own house :)

Got one of these from them...oldie but goodie :)

Don't you just love them? :)

Highlight of the day....got this handmade bag from China (at the batik world summit). The color was amazing!! I fell in love instantly and bought it :p
