"Doek. Linnen. Servet met opgeborduurde namen van mensen uit Japanse Interneringskampen. Geborduurd in diverse kleuren.
This bright, white, jacquard woven serviette has a machine-stitched hem, and decorative machine stitching along the four edges. In each of the four corners, there is a hand-embroidered camp scene: a woman carrying a bowl (of food?); sewing (?) under a tree; carrying a bucket and a bottle; working (?) at a table. In the centre of the cloth, the words Kedoeng-Badak, 19-2-1945 are embroidered in bright red. Around it, names are embroidered in various colours: D. Jochems, San, A. Vasbinder, Lieneke, Anneke, Elly, Jo, Steussij(?).
In the Japanese internment camps scattered throughout the Indonesian archipelago, hardship reigned because basic necessities, including cloth and clothing, were in too short supply. Women were allowed to bring a limited quantity of household items with them into the camps, and trade with the outside world for the duration of the internment was not possible. Cloth was therefore a very valuable item and nothing was wasted. Women in the camps were ingenious with needle and thread. They altered items of clothing to fit their childrren as they grew up, and as their body sizes changed from lack of food. They also made inventive gifts for family and friends, such as this. Working with needle and thread was familiar to most women in the internment camps, as one of their homemaker tasks in the colonial context was to make the clothing for the family."^^xsd:string
