Abstract

The Rider is a dance performance series that proposes the association between humans, spaces, nature, and non-humans. This research aims to break down the chronological aspects of the trilogy performances, Rider, presented in the three distinct venues. It employed a practice-based research approach in four key stages: the training ground process, the use of the arch as a flux dramaturgical tool, the artist as a subject perspective, and shifting the (inter) mediums interactivity. This investigation highlights the connection between the body aquaculture as a performance material and the natural characteristic of the ocean and revolving the dramaturgical reflection. It also explores the level of engagement - participatory of the inter-audiences and mediums as it experiences response-ability, which has been seamlessly integrated into the artwork known as Rider. As a result, the sensitivity of self-awareness to social circumstances, environmental issues, and global conflicts could be achieved In other words, by experiencing art, the senses of the aesthetics of human beings could be used in our daily lives to make a peaceful and better world in this uncertain future.

Abstract

Samanim’s oral opera is a programmatic musical composition designed to embody the cultural identity of Malind, highlighting the challenges faced by women and the rich local ecological knowledge, all conveyed through the medium of performing arts. This research seeks to uncover, express, and revitalize Malind local wisdom, often marginalized in dominant narratives of development and modernity. In this context, Samanim’s oral opera serves as a form of artistic expression and a vital tool for challenging established knowledge systems, all while elevating Indigenous perspectives in the broader discussion. Rooted in the principles of decoloniality, local feminism, and Indigenous ecology, this work emphasizes the vital role of women as key participants and guardians of values, knowledge, and the continuity of traditions across generations. This study utilizes practice-led research, a method selected for its ability to foster knowledge creation through creative practice, which in turn provides valuable insights via aesthetic experiences and thoughtful artistic processes. This analysis delves into three important areas: the musical and cultural identity of the Malind people, the vital roles women play in preserving and sharing knowledge, and the ecological values represented by Samanim as a central figure. The findings show that the Samanim’s oral opera plays a vital role in shaping the collective memory of the Malind community by how it engages with musical elements, cultural narratives, and representations of women. This work highlights the vital contributions of women in both cultural and ecological stewardship, while addressing pressing contemporary challenges like environmental degradation, social marginalization, and the impact of capitalism on Indigenous ways of life. In the end, Samanim’s oral opera operates as a medium through which cultural values and political reflection, showcasing how art can inspire resistance, enhance critical awareness, and contribute to sustainable thinking.
