00:06 Hello, citizens! We're in Cirebon.
00:10 And this time, we're going to discuss one of the special crafts of Cirebon, which is the wealth of Indonesian batik.
00:15 The diversity of Cirebon culture is also reflected in the traditional fabric, which is so colorful and beautiful.
00:26 I want to invite you to shop, but before that, in one of the famous batik centers in Cirebon, Batik Terusmi.
00:34 Batik in Cirebon has been around since the 14th century.
00:39 Initially, batik was made for the kingdom or sultanate.
00:42 Then, the special motifs of the sultanate such as the Naga Liman Park, Teratai Zoo, and Sunyaragi Arum Park appeared.
00:51 The motif is classified as classic because each stroke is symbolic and has a religious meaning.
00:57 Initially, it only circulated in Kraton, but eventually it became a commodity of trade.
01:02 This was supported by Muarajati, which at that time became a port for the traders from domestic and foreign.
01:08 From here, the motif of batik has developed into coastal batik with a freer pattern, a combination of colorful colors, and more trendy in its time.
01:19 The one that became an icon of Cirebon is the Megamendung motif.
01:22 Some literatures say that this motif was influenced by the beginning of Chinese culture in the 16th century.
01:28 The motif is cloud-shaped because this cloud can bring rain and give fertility or life itself.
01:35 Usually, this motif has a gradation of three beautiful colors, which means it takes three color processing.
01:47 So, why are we in Trusmi?
01:49 The village of Trusmi has been a batik center in Cirebon for centuries.
01:54 Until today, thousands of batik craftsmen have become the driving force of the Cirebon economy.
01:58 Like in this official batik center, which continues to innovate by popularizing batik to various sectors so that this batik can be appreciated by various generations.
