Ikat from Timor and its outer Islands

Insular and Interwoven

2022 || Hardcover || Peter ten Hoopen || Sidestone Press Dissertations

Paradoxically this technical perspective highlights the human factor. Focused on the last century of the colonial period, we see the weaver’s decisions in close-up, as if we are sitting next to her. This yields rich insights, not just in materiality, but also in the weavers’ creativity.
