This research investigates how local identity is represented in mural artworks created by urban communities in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study methodology, the study examines murals from three locations Kampung Code, Jl. Tirtodipuran, and Sayidan employing visual semiotics and thematic analysis. Findings reveal that these murals utilize traditional symbols such as wayang, batik patterns, and agrarian motifs to assert cultural continuity and communal values. The murals in Kampung Code emphasize resistance through traditional iconography, while those in Jl. Tirtodipuran depict everyday rural life, reinforcing social bonds. In Sayidan, a hybrid aesthetic emerges as young artists integrate traditional elements with contemporary street art, expressing fluid and pluralistic urban identities. The research illustrates that murals in Yogyakarta are not merely decorative but serve as powerful mediums for cultural negotiation, identity formation, and community engagement. Through public art, communities assert their presence and preserve their heritage in the face of urban change. The study contributes to interdisciplinary discussions in urban studies, visual culture, and cultural geography by offering empirical evidence on how community-based murals articulate identity, resist gentrification, and sustain cultural heritage in Yogyakarta’s evolving urban landscape.

This study provides a narrative review of digital transformation in arts education, with a focus on pedagogical models, curriculum innovation, technological integration, and global perspectives. The review draws on literature from databases including Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed, using keyword combinations related to digital transformation, pedagogy, and arts education. Inclusion criteria emphasized peer-reviewed studies published between 2015 and 2025, spanning diverse research designs. The findings indicate that project-based and STEAM learning approaches, combined with digital tools such as artificial intelligence and augmented reality, significantly improve student engagement, creativity, and adaptability. Curriculum reforms incorporating e-learning, blended, mobile, and ubiquitous learning models demonstrate how institutions globally are redesigning education to meet digital challenges. At the same time, systemic barriers—including insufficient infrastructure, limited teacher training, and policy gaps—continue to hinder effective implementation, particularly in developing countries. Comparative analyses highlight stark disparities between developed and developing contexts but also reveal innovative practices emerging from resource-constrained environments. The discussion emphasizes the importance of inclusive policies, sustained professional development, and international collaboration in addressing these barriers. Future research is needed to provide longitudinal evidence of the long-term impact of digital integration on creativity and professional readiness. The review concludes that digital technologies, when strategically integrated, are not supplementary but foundational to the future of arts education.

This study explores sustainability in arts management and cultural policy through a comprehensive narrative review of interdisciplinary literature. The objective was to examine how sustainability is conceptualized and operationalized across global contexts, with particular attention to governance structures, institutional practices, digital innovation, and indigenous knowledge. Methodologically, the review employed targeted searches in Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, using key terms such as “cultural policy,” “arts management,” “sustainability,” and “cultural governance.” Inclusion criteria prioritized peer-reviewed studies published between 2000 and 2025 that engaged directly with sustainability in cultural sectors. Selected works were analyzed through narrative synthesis to identify recurring themes and divergent findings. The results reveal four key dimensions of sustainability in cultural policy. First, global trends show that sustainability principles are increasingly embedded in cultural strategies, though implementation varies between developed and developing countries. Second, institutional practices highlight the importance of autonomy, adaptability, and innovative funding models such as crowdfunding. Third, digital transformation emerges as a powerful tool for enhancing access, participation, and heritage preservation. Fourth, indigenous and local knowledge provide culturally grounded frameworks that enrich policy inclusivity and effectiveness. These findings indicate that sustainable cultural governance requires balancing economic viability with cultural authenticity and social justice. The implications emphasize the need for adaptive policies, interdisciplinary approaches, and expanded geographical research. Strengthening political commitment, fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration, and recognizing cultural diversity are essential strategies to overcome systemic barriers. This review contributes to advancing the global dialogue on sustainable cultural governance and highlights pathways for research and practice to ensure the resilience of arts and cultural sectors.

Music therapy has gained increasing recognition as a non-pharmacological intervention for improving mental health in both clinical and community settings. This narrative review aimed to synthesize current evidence on its effectiveness, methodological approaches, and systemic challenges. Literature was systematically identified through major databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using keywords such as "music therapy," "mental health," "anxiety," "depression," and "stress." Inclusion criteria focused on empirical studies, randomized controlled trials, cohort research, and systematic reviews addressing mental health outcomes. Findings demonstrate that music therapy significantly reduces symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress while enhancing social interaction and overall well-being. Clinical studies reported improvements among intensive care patients and older adults, while community-based interventions benefitted adolescents and caregivers. Technological innovations, including mobile applications and digital delivery platforms, have expanded accessibility and demonstrated outcomes comparable to conventional therapy. Global evidence suggests consistent benefits across cultural and healthcare contexts, reinforcing music’s universality as a therapeutic medium. However, systemic barriers such as limited policy support, inadequate professional training, and stigma against non-pharmacological interventions hinder widespread adoption. The review concludes that music therapy offers substantial promise for integration into mental health care but requires stronger evidence from long-term studies and culturally diverse populations. Policy reform, standardized methodologies, and digital innovation are key strategies to ensure sustainable implementation. By addressing current gaps, music therapy can be established as an essential component of comprehensive mental health care.
