The series consists of nine artworks - four individual pieces, three diptych, a triptych and a quadtych - which combine the traditional art of batik with contemporary photography. The ladies featured are the batik makers who participated in the making of these works.“Mbak Surani and Mbak Yamtini are siblings and among the young active members of the batik group. Representing a generation which is largely uninterested in batik making traditions, their presence in the industry is significant for its revitalization. Both married early and had their first child at a young age. In this artwork, they are seen with their children. Mbak Yamtini is fond of the butterfly motif which was a predominant feature on the original background. It was the first piece that was combined with the cyanotype images but the test was unsuccessful. In remaking the work, Pak Sukardi surrounds the portrait with the Buron Wono motif, highlighting the family’s joy at being in an environment of vibrant wildlife.” (Kebon Indah.
