About

Jasmine Dhika (b. 1998, Indonesia) is a multidisciplinary textile designer exploring the intersection of traditional ecological knowledge, material innovation, and its regenerative systems. Her practice celebrates Indigenous science as a foundation for sustainable futures, documenting and reimagining traditional fibers cultivated through multicropping and crop rotation within fiber-food systems.  

Rooted in her upbringing—learning from her mother who practiced gardening and composting—her work is a tribute to the wisdom of generations.

Through her study, Dhika is developing bio-textiles from agricultural by product and bacterial cellulose, exploring material properties for textiles. Her work seeks to decolonize material knowledge, honor its origins, and support communities in safeguarding biodiversity through thoughtful design.
