About the Artist: Born on June 1st, 1973 in Bojonegoro, East Java, Wahyu Sulistiani comes from a supportive family that instilled in her the value of hard work for success. After working at a hotel in Singaraja and then moving to Denpasar, she met Novica featured artisan Ms. Yumiko and began working at her batik workshop. Here, Wahyu not only honed her craft of creating top-quality batik but also learned valuable skills in supplier contact and sales. One of her most memorable experiences was fulfilling a large order through Novica, where she had to work diligently, plan strategically, and deliver within a tight deadline. The financial bonus earned from this order brought immense joy to Wahyu, allowing her to support her family and eventually start her own business.
