Wadasan

Cirebon and Trusmi, north coast of Java

“Wadas” is rock: coral-like rock formations outlined again and again, from dark to light. The earth beneath mega mendung’s sky, standing for steadiness.

Seen in Cirebon court batik and the Trusmi workshops, often with mega mendung clouds or animals among the rocks.

“Wadas” berarti batu: bentuk batu karang yang digaris berulang dari gelap ke terang. Bumi di bawah langit mega mendung, lambang keteguhan.
