After taking over her father's business batik production, Batik Boutique supported Wanie in skills training to learn the traditional method of batik block making from a master artisan. Our partnership continues strong since 2011 and we continue to be one of the main sources of her family and community income and livelihood.
ARINA & her team
As a female-led workshop, this second generation textile artist started working with the Batik Boutique to bring to life modern designs and faster processes. To date, we have supported Arina and her family in expanding their production center, digitizing their designs through laptop donations and provided interns for their capacity building.

Born and raised in batik making, Pak Nik joined our team in 2016. Working with his wife, at home, he proudly supports the industry and continues expanding his capacity and production along with his brother's own batik business in batik production at a rural village on the east coast of Malaysia.
