Abstract

Ketoprak is a traditional Javanese performing art that incorporates elements of karawitan, dance, comedy, song, acting, and artistic arrangements. Traditional art is divided into two types, such as folk art and classical art, or palace art. Ketoprak is a folk art that has its origins among the people who live outside the palace. As a folk art, ketoprak is also used to communicate to the authorities issues that the people are concerned about. Criticizing through the performing arts is a powerful way to express criticism without taking offense. Ketoprak is usually performed by a group of artists on stage. However, in recent years, ketoprak performances have been performed not only by community performer groups but also by state officials taking the cast of characters on stage. The involvement of state officials at all levels, from regional to ministerial, as well as guest stars and main characters. Including those carried out under the RRI Yogyakarta ketoprak program. The descriptive qualitative research method was used to figure out how the implementation of the ketoprak program at RRI can preserve ketoprak's dignity as a folk theater, despite the fact that it is represented by state officials, by conducting interviews with program producers and respected ketoprak performers from Yogyakarta. The study's findings show that in its development, ketoprak was divided into two forms, conventional ketoprak which was standard with rules or pakem that were still preserved by RRI Yogyakarta and ketoprak garapan which is open to be interpreted in various ways and is free to be casted by anyone, including officials who are performed in the live version of the RRI Ketoprak Program.

Abstract

The dhadhak merak is an iconic mask in Reyog Ponorogo. Over a very long period of time, the dhadhak merak has visually evolved into the form that is often seen today. The visual phenomenon then forms an image of Ponoragan visual culture that is interesting to explore in greater depth. This is what attracts the author's attention to focus on reviewing: 1) The phenomenon of visual development of dhadhak merak over time and 2) Reading Ponoragan visual culture in dhadhak merak. This research is a descriptive qualitative research, with data collection techniques using literature studies and archival documentation. In the process of reading the visual culture of dhadhak merak, the author conducted a review from several aspects, namely: visual structure, function, value, and meaning. The results of this study are 1) The dhadhak merak has undergone seven phases of development starting from its simple dhadhak to the form that is commonly found today. 2) The visual structure, function, historical value, and meaning of the dhadhak merak are constructed on the culture of the people of Ponorogo itself starting from the era of animism-dynamism, Hindu-Buddhism, Islam, to the present era. From that, the Ponoragan culture as a very strong identity marker can be reflected in the dhadhak merak visual culture artifact.

Abstract

The Study of Sintren in Gender Expressivity: The Role of Women in Dance Traditions analyzes the role of Cirebonese women in expressing and preserving the art of Sintren. This research aims to further analyze and examine how women contribute to the arts and culture of Cirebon. A qualitative, empirical approach was employed, involving diverse documentation of events, recordings of speech, words, and gestures of the subjects, specific behaviors, written documents, and various visual images related to the social phenomenon. The study employs five stages of qualitative research methods, namely: (1) participant observation, (2) conversation analysis, (3) discourse analysis, (4) content analysis, and (5) ethnographic data collection. The findings reveal that, in a broader social context, the role of women in Sintren dance reflects societal changes. Although Sintren remains deeply rooted in tradition, women involved in its practice have begun exploring new aspects, such as innovations in movement and interpretation. These changes demonstrate that women are not merely passive participants in tradition but actively contribute to enriching and developing the performing arts. This creates a space for dialogue between tradition and modernity, providing women with opportunities to express their identities in a broader context. The study concludes that Sintren is an art form closely linked to the mystical and cultural practices of the Cirebon community. However, in the modern era, Sintren is increasingly marginalized amidst the advancements of the times. This is evident in the limited studies on Sintren, the scarcity of its documentation, and its performances being limited to specific groups. Such conditions highlight the need for greater efforts in preserving and revitalizing this traditional art form.

Abstract

Inong Balee was Aceh's war fleet led by Indonesia's first female admiral, Keumalahayati. Inong Balee consisted of widows who lost theirhusbands in the war and girls who fought against the invaders. The progress of this fleet is represented as a Lioness standing proudly on the ship of the Sultanate of Aceh. This work emerged from the fighting spirit of heroic women. This Inong Balee spirit influenced the emancipation of Acehnese women. This is what makes Aceh women different from women in other regions, where Aceh women are known to have a tough nature.This spirit is interestingly implemented in the form of abstract dance artworks. The purpose of this research is to create an abstract dance artwork that represents the Lioness in the fighting spirit of Inong Balee in Aceh as a pioneer of emancipation. The method used is the creation method byAlma Hawkins which consists of exploration, improvisation, and formation. This research is expected to answer global challenges related to women's issues, especially women in social status. With the achievement of the objectives of this research, the research output can be targeted, namely a dance artwork entitled Bungong Rencong, a scientific article in an accredited national journal, and a copyright certificate for the artwork.

Abstract

"Put On" is the name of a character as well as the title of a comic that was once popular in Indonesia. Put On was published around 1931 by Kho Wan Gie in the mass media. The comic Put On showcases many aspects of Chinese Peranakan culture residing in Jakarta. The Chinese culture depicted in the comic includes language, daily habits, family structure, and the food consumed. In the comic, Put On is portrayed as a mischievous, naive, and childish character, despite being depicted as a large, middle-aged man. This research was conducted using qualitative methods in the form of multimodal analysis and narrative inquiry. Observations from the multimodal analysis method were carried out to examine the graphic narrative elements within the comic, while the narrative inquiry was conducted to gain insight into the reading experience of Put On. The aspects examined in the reading experience include character design (drawing style, physical appearance, and clothing style), language (body gestures and speech), and visualizations of social situations. The results of the research indicate that the Chinese Peranakan identity is not immediately apparent from the design and traits of Put On as the main character. However, it is through his interactions with other characters such as using distinctive language and his inhabit specifi social environments that the comic Put On successfully represents peranakan TiongHoa culture.

Abstract

Bala Anjani Dance contains a message of gender equality, emphasizing that women and men have equal positions. This social message aims to eliminate gender discrimination and destroy negative stereotypes against women. However, the limitations of traditional art media limit the reach of this message. This study aims to transform masculinity in the choreography of the Bala Anjani Dance, which is full of social values, into a digital comic media based on the Webtoon platform to reach the wider community, especially the younger generation. The research method uses a qualitative-descriptive approach to analyze the art of the Bala Anjani Dance and a design approach to produce comic products. The media transfer process includes several stages: (1) ecranization to transfer the moral message of gender equality into a comic story; (2) reduction, namely simplifying the original story to make it more interesting; (3) additions and variations to the story, setting, and characterization; (4) product testing on 30 students; and (5) implementation, namely the creation of a digital comic to be published on Webtoon. The results of the study produced the character and story of the comic "Bala Anjani" which raises the value of gender equality. Based on the test, 100% of respondents considered the character illustrations attractive, 87% stated that the color composition was harmonious, and 84% considered the storyline easy to understand. All respondents agreed that the story conveys a moral message of gender equality. The final product in the form of comic panels is ready to be published on Webtoon. This study shows that the transformation of traditional art into digital media is effective in conveying social messages to a wider audience. This approach has the potential to be a model for media transfer for other traditional arts to support education and gender equality campaigns.
