Abstract

This study examines the concept of the application of a variety of decorative wood carvings in the Ndalem Keprieranan through the perspective of functional aesthetic theory. This study aims to identify the connection between aesthetic aspects, functions, and philosophical values contained in wood carving elements in traditional Javanese architecture. The variety of ornaments on the ndalem building acts as a decorative motif that contains symbolic meaning that represents the value system, social structure, and life view of the Javanese people about the relationship between humans, nature, and God. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach through visual observation, documentation, and literature studies, with analysis focused on the shape, motif, composition, and symbolic function of carving. The results of the study suggest that the application of functional aesthetics in the variety of decorative wood carvings in the palace displays a harmonious harmony between visual beauty and constructive function. The value of Tata-Titi-Teges is reflected in the regularity of form, the accuracy of proportion, and the firmness of symbolic meaning, while the value of Nata-Niti-Natas shows a reflective and spiritual dimension that directs human consciousness towards the order of the cosmos. Overall, this study emphasizes that traditional Javanese aesthetics are oriented towards the beauty of appearance which is a value system that combines visual, functional, and spiritual principles in an integrated manner, which makes the variety of wood carvings as an expression of harmony between material and immaterial aspects in the life of the Javanese people.

Abstract

Urbanization, globalization, and the intensification of cultural tourism have placed Betawi cultural arts in a vulnerable position amid changes in meaning, commodification, and shifts in aesthetic values. This study aims to explain how cultural aesthetics are mediated as a resilience strategy through representational practices in the Betawi Cultural Village (PBB) Setu Babakan. Using a phenomenological approach and representation theory, it examines how aesthetic experiences—in visual, narrative, and ritual forms—are created, negotiated, and interpreted by cultural actors, including government officials, local communities, and tourists. The analysis was conducted through field observations, in-depth interviews, visual documentation, and hermeneutic interpretations based on Bourdieu's theory of habitus, cultural capital, and the arena of cultural production. The results show that aesthetic mediation functions as a connecting mechanism between traditional values and the demands of the tourism industry, yielding three main processes: creative reproduction, representational transformation, and authenticity negotiation. These processes enable Betawi culture to survive and adapt without losing its essential dimensions of meaning. The findings contribute to the development of cultural tourism studies, cultural communication design, and representation theory in the context of Indonesian urban society.
