We recently embarked on a journey, an adventure through arts and crafts in Selangor, Malaysia. Organized by Gaya Travel with the support of the Selangor State Economic Planning Unit, we visited some of the folks that live a life of arts and crafts.
In this special issue we look at some of the Indie Arts and Crafts that are lesser known but are available in Selangor, Malaysia. Batik for example, is famous on the east coast of Malaysia. When people mention batik in Malaysia, states such as Terengganu and Kelantan comes to mind. Selangor too has batik. Selangor even has batik that is made using a modernized process called cold wax. Other interesting crafts are pyrography and diorama building by SamuraiDio Hobby Station.
