Abstract

This research explores women's empowerment through the traditional artistry of Songket Pandai Sikek in Tanah Datar, West Sumatera, Indonesia, focusing on the intricate fusion of skillful craftsmanship and written communication. The decline of traditional weaving practices, attributed to the advent of non-mechanical looms, prompts an investigation into the essence of Local Wisdom in women's empowerment through Songket Pandai Sikek. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive approach, the study employs written observations, interviews, and document analysis as data collection methods involving various informants. The findings, meticulously communicated through writing, highlight the profound significance of local wisdom interwoven into the art, sourced from written prose and oral traditions expressed in songs. Nature-inspired motifs in the Songket weaving process serve as intentional carriers of tales, expressed in prose or melody, becoming integral components of the fabric's narrative. The research also emphasizes the artisans' adaptability to changes, narrated through written narratives, illustrating the evolution and preservation of Pandai Sikek weaving. The study contributes valuable insights through the written word by examining the interplay of local wisdom, women's empowerment, and Songket Pandai Sikek's intricate artistry. It underscores the enduring allure of Songket Pandai Sikek and its pivotal role in empowering women /by incorporating local wisdom. Ultimately, the research articulates the cultural and social impact of this traditional craft in West Sumatera, establishing a meaningful connection between local wisdom, women's empowerment, and the meticulous artistry of Songket Pandai Sikek, all embedded with profound written and oral narratives.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the symbolism and philosophy in traditional Indonesian dance movements and their role in conveying social and spiritual values. Using a literature review approach, this research collects and analyzes relevant literature published between 2015 and 2024, including indexed international journals, books, and scholarly articles. Thematic analysis and content analysis are used to identify the main themes in the dance movements, such as harmony, unity, and the relationship between humans, nature, and God. The results show that traditional Indonesian dance is more than just a performing art; it serves as an important medium for transmitting profound moral values and life philosophies, such as self-control, cooperation, and inner peace. These findings highlight the need to preserve the symbolism and philosophy of traditional dance amidst globalization and modernization. The implementation of these findings can be carried out by integrating these cultural values into arts and culture education, both in formal and non-formal settings, to ensure that the younger generation not only masters dance techniques but also understands the philosophical meanings contained within them. This study provides deep insights into the importance of maintaining the relevance of traditional dance as part of the nation’s cultural identity.Keywords: Dance Philosophy, Social Values, Cultural Preservation, Symbolism, Traditional Indonesian Dance
