Story behind the art:
Sawasdee kha, my name is Jariya Kakaew. But everyone call me Nai refered to my nick name. I was born in Chiang Mai on 20 Febuary, 191977.I grow up in a small warm family. I only have one older brother. My parents are a kind person so that I always feel that we have a happy family. After graduated from high school in the city of Chiang Mai. I went to study the in the commercial collage. After this collage I went to the university and got the bachelor degree on financial and banking. My mother was doing the batik work for quite sometimes ago so that I often help my mother for her batik work when I was a student. But after my graduation, the batik work is not doing so well, my mother only got a very few orders. So that I decided to work with my friend for the saa paper items for about 2 years. During this time, my brother who resigned from a job and started to do the cotton cloth design. Because he is actually loves arts and handicraft from a very young age, just like myself. Living in the handicraft area in Sankamphang, Chiang Mai is also allow us to always have the chance to get involved with handicraft. But we just never really have time to do much about it. It’s turn out that my brother cotton cloths are doing pretty well. His design is nice and he also got quite a few awards within a few years. His cotton cloth design have been display in quite a few big fair in Bangkok, Chiang Mai and also be display oversea like in the US. It’s also doing pretty well in term of sales In 2004 I started to work with my brother regarding the design and the production. We helped each other to select the good material, nice color and turn it to be many nice cotton design. When I have skill to do everything by myself. It’s time that my brother like to explore the other things. So he let me run all of the work but he is still be around. So whenever I need help or advice, he will always help and support me. Our cotton design are focus on using the natural material for the modern life. We use the method of coiling a thread to decorate lot of the work. We are glad that the peoples like our ready to wear cotton cloths. And it also bring a lot of work to every one involved in every making process. Including a lots of villagers who help us turning a cotton into many nice styles clothing and home decorative items. Myself, my brother and my team work will always focus on using the natural Material, local technique and wisdom to create nice design and pattern to be suitable for the modern way of life locally and internationally. I hop that more people will like our work and appreciate the way that we are focus on using the friendly environmental material and we will always develop more new styles. And also develop in every making process that will make our cotton cloths better in every aspect. I ‘m proud that our cotton that our cotton clothing are not just the cotton items but it has a lot of stories behind it. It’s also collect a lot of skill from quite a few people who create it. n.
