Abstract

This study explores how visual art operates as a medium of mediated resistance in the context of postmodern communication. Drawing on interdisciplinary theories from cultural studies, critical discourse, and media ecology, the research investigates how visual artworks—such as political murals, protest posters, and digital illustrations—challenge dominant ideologies and contribute to the construction of collective identity. Using a qualitative methodology combining semiotic analysis and Visual Discourse Analysis (VDA), the study analyzes selected visual texts to examine their representational strategies, ideological content, and audience interaction. The findings reveal that visual art functions not only as an aesthetic form but as a discursive force that reclaims marginalized narratives, negotiates symbolic power, and activates participatory resistance. This research affirms the role of visual culture as a central arena for the articulation of agency, identity, and alternative worldviews within postmodern media ecologies.

Abstract

In an era where inclusive growth has become a global development mantra, this study critically examines a frequently overlooked dimension: information inequality. While infrastructure expansion and digital inclusion are often presented as pathways to empowerment, this research argues that many development efforts are structured in ways that silence marginalized voices, particularly in peripheral regions. Using a qualitative approach combining critical discourse analysis, interviews, and case studies from remote areas in Indonesia the study explores how development communication practices reflect and reproduce power imbalances. Findings reveal that dominant narratives frame poverty as a technical issue, exclude communities from meaningful participation, and centralizing communicative control in elite institutions. At the same time, grassroots actors engage in alternative communication strategies, highlighting their agency and resilience. The study concludes that true inclusion requires not just access, but the redistribution of communicative power, enabling communities to shape the narratives and policies that define their futures. Communication, therefore, must be recognized not merely as a channel, but as a site of justice, voice, and democratic engagement in the age of inclusive growth.
