Abstract

There are various kinds of culture in Indonesia, especially the local culture. It's not surprising that many young and old people take part in maintaining local culture, one of which is Bantengan art. Bantengan art is widely known by people who love traditional culture. The traditional art of Bantengan comes from East Java, combining elements of ballet, kanuragan, music, and thick poetry or mantras with a magical feel. The game will be interesting if it enters the trance stage, namely the stage where the player holding the Bull's head becomes possessed by the spirit of the Bull's ancestors. The Kebo Putro Joyo Anom Bantengan Art Group is one of the many Bantengan art groups in Malang Regency. The preservation of traditional arts, such as Bantengan, is crucial for cultural heritage and community identity. However, the challenges of modern times, including rapid urbanization and globalization, threaten the continuity of these art forms. To address this issue, this research explores the potential of digital tools to promote and preserve Bantengan art within the Kebo Putro Joyo Anom art group in Malang District, East Java. By leveraging digital platforms and technologies, the study aims to create a more accessible and engaging experience for both artists and audiences, fostering a deeper appreciation for Bantengan art and ensuring its legacy for future generations.

Abstract

Digital media and emerging technological tools are expanding the reach of various practices, including art, which increasingly takes abstract, visual, or musical forms. This transformation has led to a growing detachment from traditional art forms, contributing to their diminishing appeal. Furthermore, regional cultural institutions, such as art galleries, often struggle to effectively promote traditional arts, exacerbating the challenges of preserving and revitalizing these cultural expressions in the face of rapid societal change. This research explores the innovative intersection of digital comics and traditional arts as a means of cultural preservation and promotion. This research investigates how the storytelling power of comics, with its engaging visuals and narrative structure, can be harnessed to communicate the richness of traditional art forms to a broader, more diverse audience. By integrating elements of traditional culture into digital comic formats, the study seeks to bridge generational and cultural gaps, ensuring that the cultural significance of traditional arts is not only preserved but also made relevant in today’s digital-centric world. The research emphasizes how this hybrid medium can serve as an accessible platform for education, engagement, and cultural exchange, providing an interactive way to showcase traditional art techniques, history, and symbolism. Furthermore, the study examines the potential of digital comics to expand the reach and visibility of traditional art, particularly among younger generations who may be less engaged with conventional art forms. Through an analysis of case studies and the development of prototype digital comic projects, the research highlights the effectiveness of combining modern digital tools with the timeless appeal of visual storytelling. The study suggests that by leveraging the popularity of comics and graphic novels, traditional art can be introduced in a fresh, dynamic way, fostering greater appreciation and understanding. This research ultimately proposes a new model for preserving cultural heritage, blending creativity, technology, and tradition to create compelling narratives that resonate with a contemporary audience.

Abstract

Malang’s ancient temple statues embody deep symbolic meanings that reflect the region’s spiritual, historical, and cultural identity. However, in contemporary society, these artifacts often remain static relics with limited engagement from younger generations, creating a disconnect between cultural heritage and modern life. This research addresses the question of how the symbolic essence of temple statues can be preserved and reintroduced in forms relevant to today’s creative industries. The study aims to visually reconstruct and reinterpret the symbolic values of Kidal Temple statues into contemporary batik motifs, transforming them into living cultural expressions that can be worn, circulated, and appreciated in everyday contexts. The objectives are twofold: to develop batik designs that authentically represent the visual and symbolic richness of the statues, and to propose a model of cultural preservation through design innovation that bridges heritage and contemporary creative practices. The research adopts the design thinking method due to its iterative and human-centered approach, encompassing five stages: empathy, define, ideation, prototyping, and testing. Cultural insights are gathered through field observation and expert interviews, translated into visual elements, explored through motif development, and refined through feedback from artisans and users. The outcomes include a series of batik patterns that reinterpret Kidal Temple symbolism, contributing to heritage preservation, reinforcing local identity, and offering practical strategies for integrating cultural narratives into the creative economy.
