Abstract

In contemporary art, aesthetics serves as a medium for conveying complex societal and cultural messages. One artist who has masterfully harnessed this power is Mufti Priyanka (Amenk). His body of work is characterized by a unique and intriguing “grotesque aesthetics” that delves into various dimensions of everyday life. Through his art, Amenk provokes profound inquiries into the intricacies of our social realities. This research is dedicated to unraveling the aesthetics intricately woven into Amenk’s artworks, which seemingly offer genuine insights into the collective consciousness of a society grappling with the complexities of social norms and cultural identity. This study adopts a qualitative approach, examining Amenk diverse portfolio, encompassing paintings and graphics. Anchored in the framework of Derrida’s Deconstruction theory (1967), this approach involves a textual analysis, dissecting the conceptual distinctions that form the foundation of the text. By unveiling the inconsistencies and paradoxes inherent in the utilization of these concepts, the research sheds light on the intricate tapestry of Amenk’s artwork. Ultimately, Amenk’s body of work represents more than an exploration of cultural significance; it stands as a bold challenge to established norm, values, and even the truths.

Abstract

Recently, many regional areas have been trying to quantify the number of tourists visiting their regions. It is because the tourism sector has so many good impacts, not only economic impacts but also the sociocultural development of those in that area. One of the ways to be seen as unique by foreigners is by making a cultural icon in the region, just like what the government of Kulon Progo Regency in Yogyakarta did in June 2021. By causing the dance fragment Suroloyo Wrehaspati, it is hoped that more tourists will come to Kulon Progo Regency and consider it a unique cultural work. The research aims to compare the dance fragment Suroloyo to the traditional South Korean opera, changgeuk, both cultural icons in their regions. Some findings are found by interviewing the person in charge of the performances and literary reviews from journals, books, and internet sources. The research found that changgeuk in South Korea historically was not meant to be made as a cultural icon; it was naturally growing as a traditional culture that could be enjoyed both by locals and foreigners coming to South Korea. Meanwhile, the dance fragment Suroloyo is not yet known by the Kulon Progo people and the public. The performance was specially made by artists based on local myth, supported by the government, and purposely used as a tourist attraction. Hence, more campaigns are needed to make dance fragment Suroloyo Wrehaspati more globally recognized and bring the glory of tourism to Kulon Progo regency in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to show that women can dominate the story as seen in Negley’s picture book (2019) Mary Wears What She Wants. The theory used in this research is the theory of representation by Stuart Hall (1997). Besides, Barthes’ semiotic  theory (1957, 1968) is utilized to reveal the meaning of verbal and visual data in Negley’s picture book. This research is qualitative in its nature in which the data are the verbal as well as the visual texts of the picture book under study.  The finding of this research shows that the picture book under scrutiny represents inequality of gender rather than equality which highlight the inequality of women and men in the Victorian society. Another finding reveals that liberal feminism is represented through the main character, Mary. Mary dares to take risks to choose and decide the best for women, as she thinks that women have the rights to do anything they want without hesitation and with no limitation. This research also reveals that Mary uses her power to voice and to make changes impacting to women in her time. Because of her strive and determination, to date women have the bravery and power to do anything they want.

Abstract

This study explores the variety of basic colors in the Javanese language and aims to elucidate their meanings using the Natural Semantic Metalanguage Theory. Employing a qualitative research paradigm, data were collected from various sources, including Indonesian and Javanese dictionaries, LCC Indonesian 2022 and LCC Javanese corpus from CQPWeb. The study identifies 10 basic colors in Javanese, namely Ireng (black), Putih (white), Abang (red), Ijo (green), Kuning (yellow), Biru (blue), Soklat (brown), Wungu (purple), Jambon (pink), and Klawu (gray), while Indonesian has only six basic colors: Hitam (black), Putih (white), Merah (red), Kuning (yellow), Hijau (green), and Biru (blue). Utilizing the features of the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) theory and the Basic Color Term approach by Berlin and Kay, the study analyzes the Javanese colors. The research highlights differences in color explications between Javanese and Indonesian, stemming from variances in using semantic atoms to explain color meanings. For instance, in Javanese, the color black is explicated using a spice herb named "temuireng" and yam, while in Indonesian, it is explained using charcoal. Additionally, certain secondary colors in Indonesian, such as Brown, Purple, Pink, and Grey, are considered basic colors in Javanese. The findings contribute to the advancement of color studies in semantics.

Abstract

Compliance with health protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic is a crucial issue. Some segments of society tend to disregard the prevailing protocols due to a lack of awareness of their importance, making efforts to instill public awareness and adherence to health protocols a significant concern during this pandemic. Among the community's various initiatives, using folk songs as a medium for conveying messages and educating the public has gained prominence. This article aims to investigate the promotion of COVID-19 health protocols through folk songs. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach focusing on Indonesian folk songs addressing the theme of the COVID-19 pandemic, which are uploaded on YouTube. The findings indicate that Indonesian folk songs addressing COVID-19 issues articulate themes related to health protocols, social solidarity, calls for reflection, and prayers. These songs incorporate figurative language elements such as metaphors, personification, and hyperbole. The use of figurative language in these songs emphasizes content related to health, social issues, and religion. In conclusion, folk songs, in addition to providing entertainment, can convey educational messages to their listeners. Health promotion should explore creative avenues involving artists alongside conventional ways.

Abstract

The media in Russia, particularly initiatives such as the Stakhanovite movement, has significantly contributed to promoting women's empowerment in Russia. Despite leaving a lasting influence, these efforts also resulted in unintentional outcomes, including the portrayal of women idealistically through propaganda that can be seen in one of Russian Literatures.  This article delves into the construction of femininity in Natalya Baranskaya's novel Неделя Как и Любой Другой (1969)  within the context of the Soviet state. The qualitative method is used for analysis with the aim to demonstrate that terms addressed to women in the Soviet Union were forms of propaganda rather than empowerment, aimed at shaping female characters according to the state's needs. The paper employs Gender and Nation theory by Nira Yuval-Davis (1997). The study reveals that slogans like “The Real Soviet Women” along with women-targeted questionnaires and state-imposed childbirth quotas, served as instruments employed by the government to manage women's reproductive choices, influence gender norms, and uphold patriarchal ideals. In conclusion, this critique serves as Baranskaya’s opposition against heavily enforced patriarchal systems within the Soviet government.
