Sayo Art Studio Introduction
Taoyuan City's Sixth Top Souvenir - Atayal Warrior Tie; Taoyuan City's Eighth Top Souvenir - Ancestral Love - Long Wallet Coin Purse. Among all Taiwan's indigenous peoples, the weaving of the Atayal tribe is the most renowned. The Atayal people can create various intricate patterns using only a simple loom and two weaving techniques, which is both intriguing and admirable. As an Atayal woman, I grew up watching my grandmother, whose face was lined with wrinkles and deep-set eyes, focused on creating beautiful patterns with her skilled hands, moving deftly between threads. The unforgettable gaze still lingers in my mind, and as I grew older, the tactile sensation of handmade weaving and the emotion sparked by gazing at the loom remained etched in my heart. This product is handcrafted with traditional weaving techniques combined with modern cutting methods, using deep traditional colors to showcase the profound eyes of our ancestors, allowing me to feel their warmth at all times. The horizontal lines of weaving are now regarded as a rainbow, symbolizing the pathway to reunite with our ancestors. The diamond pattern represents the eyes of our ancestors, guarding our people. Unique products such as wallets and bags are created by combining indigenous totems with leather materials.
