Tour Journey to Batik

7 Days 6 Nights, May 2027. During this trip, you will have the opportunity to meet the makers, get a behind-the-scenes look at their creative processes, and even try your hand at making batik yourself.


The Journey to Batik

Sabine Bolk (1984) is a Dutch artist and batik researcher. On her blog ’The journey to Batik’ she writes about her journeys and research. Since 2009 Sabine frequently travels to Southeast Asia. In October 2019 she launched her researchproject 'Retelling the History of the (Indo-)European Influence on Batik' in Indonesia. From 2019 until December 2021 Sabine was a Research Associate at the Research Center for Material Culture in Leiden (NL) to research the batik collections in Dutch museums & archives. In her current research she focuses, next to the maker, also the wearer. Sabine writes for different platforms, organises events, gives talks, presentations and workshops to promote, preserve and protect Batik.
