Batik is the pride and joy of (most) Indonesians, including me. There’s such a rich, artistic history and meaning behind this textile, and in some cases, it’s borderline superstitious – like when we’re not supposed to wear a batik pattern called “parang” (the dagger) to a wedding because it’s a weapon and would bring bad luck (ie: conflict) to the couple.
