Collection highlights Kente Ashanti people, Ghana Factory-spun cotton and silk The kente strip serves as the basis of the large cloth which Ashanti men wear as a toga. The kente cloths represent the peak of craftsmanship done by African weavers. They are also the symbol of the entire artistic activity of the Ashanti kingdom. More than 20 strips are sewn one after another in order to reach the lavish magnitude of this ceremonial wear (approx. 220x340cm). The African loom which was no more than 30 centimeters in width, while the narrowest was only 3 centimeters – contributed much to the custom of strip-sewing. It is fascinating that the weaver produces one single strip, having to bear in mind the pattern, which he cannot perceive until the entire strip is woven. Yet, he does so with such great precision that after the weaving process is done the patterns match perfectly. From the catalogue: Ashanti: Art, Culture, Heritage (2005) Author: Ana Garić

Izdvajamo iz kolekcije Tkanina Kente Narod Ašanti, Gana. Industrijski preden pamuk i svila 215 x 340 cm. Kente traka predstavlja osnov za veliku tkaninu koju muškarci Ašanti nose kao togu. Kente tkanine predstavljaju vrhunac umeća afričkih tkača, kao i simbol celokupne umetničke aktivnosti Ašanti kraljevstva. Preko 20 traka se zašiva jedna za drugu, da bi se postigla raskošna veličina ove svečane nošnje (približno 220x340 cm). Običaju sastavIjanja velikih komada tekstila iz traka doprinela je odlika afričkog razboja koji uglavnom nije širi od 30 santimetara, dok najuži može imati i samo tri santimetra. Fascinantno je da tkač izrađuje jednu jedinu traku, imajući na umu dezen koji ne može da sagleda dok ne izatka čitavu traku. Ipak, to radi sa takvom preciznošću da se šare, kada je čitav process tkanja završen, savršeno uklapaju. Iz kataloga: Ašanti: umetnost, kultura, nasleđe (2005) Autor: Ana Garić
