Pupil---- The neghbouring area of Indramayu is a fishing community and was an important harbour on the north coast of Java often called at by foreign ship as well as vessels plying between the islands of the indonesian archipelago. The wives of fisherman did batiking from the villages around Indramayu . They batiked when their husbands were away at sea , in order to supplement their incomes. For t
his reason they did not wish to make batik that would take too much time to complete. They used a large canting on pain cloth and had hardly any filling on their batiks
To fill the empty space , they made cocohan ( tiny clots ) with an ustensil called the complongan shaped like a comb with fine needles used to penetrate the cloth already covered with wax . After dyeing , the cloths take on the color of the dye . In its simplicity Dermayon batik has its own spesial attraction
Motif of batik made in fishing villages are greatly influenced by the flora and the fauna of the surrounding are , for example Jarot Asem ( Javanese Tamarind ) Dara Kipu or by the sea such as Ganggeng and Urang ayu . These are all motifs of coarse and cheaperbatik made for common people
