Thread's of Life; A Visual Map of Indonesian Island Communities

Weaving Voices

For thousands of years to the present, the Indonesian archipelago textile communities have been producing intricately complex textiles— woven with yarns dyed in morinda root, indigo and hundreds of other dye plant recipes. In this interview with William Ingram, co-founder of Threads of Life, we discuss the plants, processes and non-material dimensions that guide the creation of millenia-old textile recipes.
