A talk by ACM Assistant Curator (Southeast Asia) Darryl Lim, originally held at the ACM Ngee Ann Auditorium on 23 January 2025.
Since 2015, the Peranakan Museum has held a significant collection of textiles made by three generations of female batik makers from Pekalongan, Indonesia: Jane Hendromartono (1924–1988), her mother Nyonya Oeij Kok Sing (1895–1966), and grandmother Nyonya Oeij Soen King (1871–1950). Comprising three large gifts and two purchases, the collection of 150 pieces is the most comprehensive corpus of works by this celebrated batik-making family. Tracing the journey of these cloths into the Peranakan Museum’s collection, this talk explores the significance of the collection within the context of the museum and wider inter-disciplinary studies.
This talk is also organised in conjunction with the special exhibition, Batik Nyonyas: Three Generations of Art and Entrepreneurship, at the Peranakan Museum till 31 August 2025.
