Laos
For centuries Laos has been renowned for the fineness
and intricacy of its silk weaving with its use of gold and
silver threads. Hmong and Mien peoples produce
embroidery with figured and geometric designs. Whole
villages may specialize in a particular craft, such as
making pottery or working silver. For example, people
living in the mountains make an array of silver jewelry
from coins to wear with their traditional dress, and
people in the Vientiane region make silver boxes for
betel chewing, bowls, and other items decorated with
scenes from the Phra Lak Phra Lam.

Vietnam
-Vietnamese silk painting is one of the most popular
forms of art in Vietnam, favored for the mystical
-atmosphere that can be achieved with the medium.
Vietnamese silk paintings typically showcase the
countryside, landscapes, pagodas, historical events,
scenes of daily life.

-Silk Painting Painting on silk begins with a luxurious


base of precious pure white China silk stretched
tightly on a frame. I use the combination of imported
French silk dyes and a resist of Gutta (which is like a
rubber cement).

Indonesia
-Shadow Puppetry is famous in Indonesia. Wayang, in
modern Indonesian language means "show" or
"perform". Kulit means "skin", a reference to the
leather material that the figures are carved out of.
-Wayang Kulit - is a type of puppet shadow play
performed around the Indo-Malayan archipelago,
tracing its origins to India.
Indonesia
The puppets are moved behind a cotton or linen
screen
by a Dalang, or a "puppetmaster"in a shadow puppet
play. The Dalang tells the story, interprets and voices
each character, producing sound effects with speech
and movement and manipulates all the figures
between the lamp and the screen to bring the
shadows to life.
