纖維記憶的噶瑪蘭族祭司與編織匠－潘烏吉
A Kavalan Ritual Specialist and Weaver Who
Carries the Memory of Fiber—Ibay
沒有祭儀的時候，Ibay通常專心地坐在香蕉絲工坊的院子裡編織香蕉絲布，Ibay說以前日子窮，連飯都吃不飽，加上那時還沒有台11線，部落對外交通困難，草蓆與布匹較難取得，就算有人來賣，族人也買不起。因此在那困頓的年代裡，噶瑪蘭人就地取材，利用一年四季都生產的香蕉樹，剖成絲來做衣服，而香蕉絲編織工法，也成了噶瑪蘭族特有的編織工藝技術。
When not performing rituals, Ibay weaves banana-fiber cloth in the courtyard of her workshop. She recalls a time of poverty and isolation, when materials were scarce and unaffordable. Using locally abundant banana trees, the Kavalan people developed banana-fiber weaving for clothing—a technique that became a distinctive cultural craft of the Kavalan tribe.
