I love watching videos where they show us a traditional way of doing things wether it’s the black Japanese kimono dye technique or this Hawaiian bark cloth, it’s always relaxing to see how they do it!
Wow, Okinawa also has a ancient tradition of making clothes from banana leaves for the same reasons! It was used to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Not a lot of people know how to make it anymore or wear it but I hope to one day help revive traditional Okinawan culture.
In the Philippines we still make banana tree cloth (also bark cloth in some places). However we make the cloth out of the stem, not the leaves. The process is like a mixture of the processes for pandanus mat weaving (stripping and dyeing of fibers) and bark cloth making (the way the cloth is beaten at the end). I'm going to try to extract some fibers from the leaves. Here's some videos on the process. Hopefully one day there can be a cultural exchange between our archipelagoes to restore the Okinawan tradition. ruclips.net/video/I3ubgNNYqwg/видео.html wrap of various banana species, clips of process ruclips.net/video/yRvWiiGoOzI/видео.html pineapple fabric process, which i believe is similar to the process for banana cloth with English subs ruclips.net/video/ErBHrYzJS58/видео.html Short film on Tnalak, a banana tree cloth of the T'boli people on the island of Mindanao ruclips.net/video/OcOtkddba1o/видео.html weaving process for Tnalak, only Tagalog subs, no Eng subs
There are many other polynesian countries that still practice the making of tapa/kapa/ngatu/siapo/masi 1. Tonga 2. Samoa & america samoa 3. Fiji We do it on a big scale tho, sometimes 20 or more yards are made.
@Lui TITOA This is important information to me, Thank you so much for that frl I want to use this fabric for my local clothing business, No one here on the Big Island sells Kapa cloth, It is a shame in my opinion. Lots of aunties and uncles don’t even teach anyone how to make it anymore. I remember as a kid I got to make some tho
Hawaiian is the baby of the pacific the youngest and is now Asian influenced heavily now thanks USA . The next Sun solar flare will wipe out both invasive species and remain the selfless tribes to start earth again
it is great that hawaiians like to learn about there heritage it is a pity that australia does not do the same thing , we are getting a lot of islanders over here but as far as i know there are no hawaiians there were a lot of people doing your crafts but out of coconut fronds me included , i had to send to hawaii to get books , your stone fences look great we have places over here with them they even make stone houses , sorry my name is terry lol
bark cloth, gourd work, these are just a few of the core implements of many cultures! but what a toll colonization has had on the earth by oppressing our native people. luckily, we are resilient and have such love for our ancestors to honor these higher forms of sustainable craft. the more we each perpetuate our cultureʻs version of these indigenous lifestyle items the better off the environment and our bodies will be! I hope someday there will be celebration and trade of these, for the distinctions from the various places they come from and with respect for the native children who keep these art forms alive ❤
I grew up on Kauai kumu kauka was my kumu at kalaheo elementary school and Waimea canyon even Waimea high . I want to contact her because I want to start making kapa cloth for when my dad passes away for his funeral because I’m the oldest and for my family members it’s so important to keep this alive
It sounds like a paper cloth. It interesting the difference between the ainu way of viewing plants and the Hawaiian view, the ainu take off only a portion of the bark whereas the Hawaiian take the whole plant.

I came to see a short docu on Hawaiian bark cloth not to be suffocated with this cheesy smegma cheese right out of the mind of a Goebels clone with a major in film making
So much small lies! 2:27 That turtle is not resting but dying of exaustion!!! Also Hula is not a mere dance but the dance of worship to the the Hawaiian idols (shark deity etc) with its correspondent prayers(0:57). Besides trying to make worshippers of false deities shes is also trying to promote servitude!("the land is the Chief and the people its servants"). Humanity should protect and defend nature, not be it's servant! PS: I appreciate the natural clothing theme but the creeping of lies and oppression must be exposed
Hawaii is the most beautiful place in the world. 🔥
NEW ZEALAND IS
They treat the natives horribly

I've planted this tree in front of my yard couple of years ago. I knew you can make paper out of it, but didn't know you can make cloth too.

I want to go to Hawaii now and just get a tour of Kauai and learn all about the culture. Hopefully meet this wonderful teacher as well.
Your comment is two years old. Have you been able to do that yet?
Hawaii comes always off as so warm and calm.

Amazing! It looks very similar to Japanese paper making that uses mulberry bark. Glad poeple are preserving the tradition!
Need more keiki like that in Hawai’i and all over the world cuz too many kids taking things for granted!!
Wow, amazing! Pretty cool to see something made from a tree bark like that
Sabra Kauka is a queen, we see you!
And that's why I love hawaii ❤️

Pretty impressive how you got a full physiological overview of that turtle from less than three seconds of video footage...
