RIGHT OKAY!!!
To start off, I know mainly about the Gorals, who live in the Tatry mountains in southern poland, and all this may be similar for other cultures, I don't know. The source for all of this is my Dziadek, who is not a goral but lived around them for quite a few years. He is starting to lose his memory, so I am trying to keep his stories and knowledge as alive as possible.
To start off, the Gorals historically were mostly animal farmers, especially sheep. All their clothes were made from the wool of the sheep, and had to be made very skillfully to keep the wearer warm enough to survive in a region where it snows six months of the year. This made woolen clothes a kind of symbol of pride- like 'look, I am farming sheep well and wearing their wool, I am skillful'. Sort of like a farmer having a feast.
The embroidery, which looks very stereotypically Eastern European and in my opinion, quite beautiful, is another important part of the dress for the same reason. It also shows skillful handling of wool- dyeing, spinning, etc- and skillful craftsmanship in making the clothing.
How important clothing was ended up making sewing to be seen as quite a manly task in the culture, which I think is very cool. Just shows how gender roles are entirely dependant on culture and not set in stone for everyone. It also means my Dziadek, despite living in Western countries with Western gender roles for the last 35 years, still views sewing as a manly task and will not hesitate to sew some new curtains or fix his granddaughters dress or whatever else needs doing.
Today, the Tatry region in Poland is very catered towards tourists, but you do still see people walking around in traditional dress. It is absolutely gorgeous, and I really do recommend going if you ever have the chance. Here's a few pictures from my trip to Zakopane:
This is so detailed and beautiful omg...Thank you so much for sharing such precious stories and history, I finally know they are called Gorals! I always wonder but don't know how to find more info about this. And the pictures omg it's so beautiful, I always love this kind of scenery....
Poland is so full of culture and so many part of the culture are different Im so glad my arts reach a lot of Polish peaple who willing to help me learn more about their cultures, like you did for me.
I thank you so so much... this is very precious to me like you have no idea,when I graduate in a few months I swear Poland will be first on my Europe culture travel list!❤️❤️
Thank you for dedicating art to Ukraine, it makes me happier!
Thank YOU!! Ukraine and Ukrainian people deserved all the happiness, Im glad my arts could bring happiness to you, it's really my highest honor ❤️
I don't know if you're only interested in clothing but I though I would recommend some polish/slavic-in-general bands that specialize in folk music and some albums I am quite a big fan of:
Chłopi (Original Soundtrack) by L.U.C. (it was made for the movie Peasants/Chłopi (2023) and the movie itself is BEAUTIFUL, if you can get your hand on it, I highly recommend
the band Żywiołak (especially the song Wiły, its SO good)
Percival (they made the ost for the witcher games, they are on of my favourites)
the band Othalan (especially the album Po krańce gór)
the band Księżyc (especially the song "Ile ma lat?"
the band JAR (especially the album Dziady)
That's most of it for now I think, I hope you like them!
Also if there is any thai/southeast-asian music you would recommend I would be very grateful!! You're thai and interested in eastern european regions and I'm Polish and interested in southeast-asian regions WE MATCH!!! 🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣
EVERYONE COME LOOK AT THIS!! omg thank you so much for the recommendation, I will admit it's really hard to find specific type of folk music but this is really good and I don't know how to thank you enough! the movie Chłopi is so so good like I have to show this to other Thai community who love Europe culture too ♥ T-T ♥
As for the thai music, I don't usually listen to Thai music much (haha) but I have some that I use to listen in the past! They use melody and lyric from Thai poem from hundred of years ago.
ลาวดวงเดือน
ออเจ้าเอย
ความรัก
ยามเย็น
Also if anyone interested, if you want to listen to some Thai old songs just search 'เพลงสุนทราภรณ์' Trust me hundred of gems are hidden for you to discover!!
Thank you so much for this again, Eastern European & South East Asian alliance let's gooooo!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Omg can I please info dump about the kind of culture behind a lot of southern Polish traditional wear to you?? Idk how much you already know but I love it there and its so cool.
omgomg please please please please!!! I would love to know more about this please!!
It is done... I finally translated The Guide™ since some people were interested and I also promised it to @zoyazoy. Here's the original one in Czech and here's some embroidery patterns.
There might be some typos or mistakes, sorry for that, I had to look up some terms and I've got no clue if they're correct.
Can you draw, please, other Slavic countries like Serbia, Russia, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Belarus? I love your arts❤
Absolutely!!! I will draw them alll! I already draw some of them but would happily draw them again, thank you so so much kind stranger!💗💗💗
