Abstract

This study aims to determine: (1) The tools and materials used in the production of waste-paper crafts at Gegaen Lima Craft, Sudaji Village, Sawan Subdistrict, Buleleng Regency. (2) The process of producing waste-paper crafts at Gegaen Lima Craft, Sudaji Village, Sawan Subdistrict, Buleleng Regency. (3) To identify the types of waste-paper crafts at Gegaen Lima Craft, Sudaji Village, Sawan Subdistrict, Buleleng Regency. The research design employed is qualitative descriptive research. The object of this study is waste-paper crafts at Gegaen Lima Craft, Sudaji Village, Sawan Subdistrict, Buleleng Regency. Data collection methods included observation, interviews, documentation, and literature review. The research results indicate that: (1) the tools and materials used include scissors, a cutter, a ruler, a brush, bamboo, a wood-handled awl, and a turntable. The materials used to create waste-paper crafts include used paper, white glue, and water-based wood stain. (2) The first stage of the paper waste craft production process involves preparing the used paper through to the finishing process. (3) The types of waste-paper crafts produced include lidded candy boxes, fruit baskets, flower vases, bokor, coasters, key chains, dulang, rugs, saab, and bags.

Abstract

Paper waste is among the most abundant and least valorised household residues in rural Bali, yet studies of Balinese upcycled craft have concentrated on bamboo, wood, and coconut materials, leaving paper-based practice largely undocumented and never examined as an aesthetic medium. This article examines how aesthetic value is constituted in upcycled paper craft at Gegaen Lima Craft, a household micro-enterprise in Sudaji Village, Buleleng Regency, established in 2015, which converts discarded school textbooks into fifteen types of household, ceremonial, and accessory products through a coiling-and-weaving technique. The study follows a descriptive qualitative design. Fieldwork at the enterprise combined participant observation of the production process, semi-structured interviews with the founder and the relatives and neighbouring producers who work with her, and systematic photographic documentation of the complete product range, which was analysed as an exhaustive corpus of sixteen documented items. Monroe Beardsley’s criteria of unity, complexity, and intensity provide the analytical framework, applied first to each item and then comparatively across four functional categories. Aesthetic value in this craft is generated primarily through intensity rather than through applied ornament: because the coiled paper strand is the sole formal vocabulary available, distinction arises from precision of execution and from the disciplined repetition of a single element across differing forms. Complexity varies inversely with functional constraint, except in ceremonial vessels, where cultural significance prompts deliberate elaboration; unity follows from the constructive logic of coiling itself. Upcycled paper craft sustains local material culture not by imitating traditional media but by reproducing traditional object-types in a new material register.
