description This article aims to show the relationship between the Batik of Yogyakarta and the development of Indonesian National Identity in the period of reform. The research is developed from the perspectives of political history, art and culture. From the perspective of political history, Yogyakarta was regarded as an important city in which it was once the capital city of Indonesia and was the state where the proclamation of independence was made. This city has been designated as the Special Region of Yogyakarta. Additionally, the city of Yogyakarta is seen as the cradle of Indonesian culture and the Javanese in particular. One aspect of which significant local culture belongs to this region is known as “batik.” Yogyakarta’s batik is more than just a valued way of dressing; it’s also a reflection of Indonesian society and national identity.
