Talk about batik, it's always identic with the Javanesse civil. this cannot be seperated from motive batik or picture in cloth from the kingdom in Javanesse. But not many people especially teenagers know how to make batik. And ofcourse know about the motive and the filosofition. For that, with the orientation from keeper in batik museum. I want to tell about kind of traditional motive, who until now many people wearing it especially javanesse civil. “Actually civil know about batik from rules from the king”. Mr. Bejo said.

“If we talk about motive, it's very extensive. Because we base with many of biblio” Example is Sewan Soesanto. He defided batik in 9 groups. They are, lereng, semen, parang, truntum, kawung, gringsing, ceplok, nitik, pinggiran motive, and terang bulan. Beside that the company of batik, the motive of batik they defided in 3 groups, figuratife motive, semi figurative, and non figurative. The other gropuper is base in color: red, red – green, and purple. The the other side they groping the batik from the worker in batik. like Wan Tirto and Harjo Negoro.

“But, in general batik defided in two, they are geometris and non geometris. It's Vanderhoop said”. Geometris motive or batik who have many of lines like kawung, parang, and panji. “Actually from filosofi, this batik tell us about birokration in the goverment. Many of rules from the kingdom until the civil or the “Manunggaling Kawula Gusti”.

Beside that, motive non geometris can we found in batik semen or th animals picture, plants picture, forest picture, or the other. “Yes, the symbol of it is semen life is the spring life, spring is grow, grow is raises. The people who wearin this batik have a wishes for a good life with the clothes, food, and home.”

“In the grow, people wear the batik not becaouse of the symbolic , but becaouse of match and the good looking”. In regulate looks for many teenager wear the batik parang and kawung. actually in fact the batik motive cannot wear by general cifil because the katon people can wearing it.” The parang motive just for the king this is the rules of the culture”.

This is not the teenager fault because in kraton enviroment the batik is feeding. Although still several people using that group but still feeding. “however if we learn from the history, batik raise from the queen hobbies because they bored to waiting their king. After that the king painter and rhe civil raises that batik. the pabric copy the traider batiks and than sprade in the civil” said Mr. Bejo (Specialist of Batik)

This is the Solution we can give is:

>> Government become the example for the people. For example too, maybe there are one day we must used batik.

>> The young generation like students teach about batik so that more know it. And than all student make used batik in certain days or important days.

>> Government arrange batik show for indonesia society. So that many people can understand about batik.

>> Government must defend places producting batik.
