Keyword(s): Cultural Sustainability, Batik Block

Abstract: Traditional batik block in Malaysia is the country’s heritage and treasure. However, it has slowly faded nearing extinction, particularly in the east coast region of Malaysia. The uniqueness of a batik block is very much relies on its pattern that is championed by a master craftsman called the master block maker. Currently, not many master block makers are left in Malaysia with only few remaining in the east coast. This finding raised the question of batik block being considered as a dying art which needs cultural awareness and recognition. A qualitative study was conducted to identify the dying art of block making in Malaysia. In - depth interviews was conducted with two block making experts in the state of Kelantan and Terengganu. The transcribed data of the interview sessions were then analysed using thematic analysis, and it was found that there are four major themes involved in the issue of the craft’s dying art which are: consistent, human factors, batik community and initiativ es. These factors plays major role in the conservation of the art of batik block in Malaysia. From the findings, it is hope that the art of block making will continue to flourish thus enhancing the appreciation and sustaining the valuable traditional culture of Malaysia. (More)
