The Sasak tribe is the ethnic group native to the island of Lombok in Indonesia. It is an ethnic group with very marked traditions, very endogamous, and that still preserves its way of life practically intact. It is a people of gatherers and livestock farmers. Men are dedicated to rice cultivation during the rainy season and soybean cultivation during the dry season, as well as caring for livestock. Women are dedicated to childcare and fundamentally to weaving with an ancestral technique passed down from generation to generation. They spin cotton yarn with a manual spindle, dye it with vegetable dyes such as indigo, turmeric, and tamarind, and weave it on a precise but rudimentary loom. Each family weaves with its own colors and geometric patterns specific to its clan. It was a pleasure to share with them and for them to teach me their way of working and seeing life. From this coexistence with them, I have brought these hand-woven and hand-dyed ponchos. They are small textile jewels for people who value handmade items. One thing that surprises me greatly is how similar these geometric patterns of the Sasak are to those of Latin American peoples, given the geographical and cultural distance between both peoples.
