Broom Maker Binding Sorghum in Johor Bahru Kitchen

by Reed Bass

Copper-toned sunlight from the setting sun pools across a cluttered kitchen floor in Johor Bahru, illuminating dust motes suspended in the humid rainy season air. A craftsman sits at a low wooden workbench, his hands moving with disciplined precision as he binds stiff, golden sorghum bristles onto a thick wooden handle. The bristles, harvested for their durability, fan out in a rough, textured arc against the smooth grain of the wood. Nearby surfaces reflect the warm, fading light, creating soft, shimmering highlights on the wet floor tiles and the metal tools resting in a shallow tray. A woven mat lies partially unrolled beside the work area, its fibers catching the last rays of daylight. at the edge is the tight knot of twine securing the bristles, glowing faintly in the low light.
