Wadasan Motif is mostly applied to batik, depicted using a dark blue color with yellowish-brown stripes and using a light brown background.
‘Wadas’ is a ceramic wall piece inspired by the Wadasan Motif as an approach to transfer the motif (batik) to another medium. There are 12-pieces of handbuild tiles, carved to shape each section of the motif (Wadasan). It is covered with stony-matte texture glaze to objectify the limestones or rocks (wadas).
