Abstract

The creation of this work is driven by the author’s profound interest in hornbills, particularly given the alarming rate of their extinction. The author’s objective is to convey the aesthetic significance of this animal to the broader community. The Sumatran hornbill, with its distinctive and striking characteristics, including its large beak, robust claws, and vibrant plumage, serves as the subject matter for this study. Through the meticulous application of acrylic paint on canvas, the author has crafted twelve paintings that meticulously capture the physical attributes of the bird and its natural habitat. Furthermore, these paintings depict the hornbill’s omnivorous lifestyle. The author employs a combination of three distinct techniques: plaque, chiaroscuro, and bravura. These techniques work synergistically to create a dynamic, contrasting, and vivacious portrayal of the hornbill within the paintings. The resulting twelve paintings, each bearing a unique title that reflects the author’s interpretation of the hornbill, provide an in-depth understanding of its physical characteristics, habitat, and behavior. Additionally, these works contribute to the advancement of the art form through the author’s unique perspective and creative expression.

Abstract

The implementation of a constructivist approach in art education has brought significant changes to the educational landscape, positioning students as active constructors of their own knowledge through direct interaction with learning materials. Constructivism enhances student engagement in the learning process, enabling them to develop a more complex understanding of art through deep exploration and reflection. The exploration of color and form in art is not merely about grasping basic concepts but also about cultivating students' abilities to interpret and respond to these elements subjectively. The application of constructivism provides substantial benefits for students, allowing for personal and meaningful learning experiences while promoting continuous and exploratory learning. Furthermore, the use of color and form in art education serves not only as a learning tool but also as a means to foster students' creativity through their imagination. Research that integrates a constructivist approach with art education offers significant contributions to the development of more effective and student-centered teaching methods. The implications of this research include a deeper understanding of student creativity, the development of more adaptive teaching strategies, and the reinforcement of the teacher's role as an effective learning facilitator. Thus, employing constructivism in art education provides a solid foundation for enhancing the quality of education and fostering student creativity.

Abstract

The 2019 Savvy Sleeper study pinpoints Jakarta as a global center grappling with remarkably elevated stress levels, stemming from urban congestion, economic uncertainties, and socio-political challenges. A Regus survey underscores a substantial 64? Surge in stress levels in Indonesia, posing significant risks to both  physical and mental health. In response, urban residents increasingly turn to healing activities, with spas emerging as vital contributors. Prasetyo et al.’s (2022) research emphasizes the favorable impact of spa experiences on stress reduction and overall well-being, stressing the need for thoughtfully designed spa facilities. The efficacy of spa experiences pivots on interior design, shaping ambiance and elevating relaxation. Recent studies underscore the importance of infusing elements of nature and cultural aesthetics into spa design to create a serene atmosphere. The fusion of Javanese and Chinese design elements, denoted as "Java-China design," presents a captivating aesthetic embraced in modern luxury interior design, embodying cultural exchange and synthesis. This essay probes the intricate interplay between Javanese and Chinese design elements in interior design, emphasizing themes of tradition, innovation, cultural identity, and globalization. Drawing inspiration from Rosemary Killmer's approach, the methodology for shaping the Java-China Fusion interior design at Yu Rirakkusu Beauty Spa ensures a thorough and effective design strategy. Dubbed Omah TuiNa, this design seamlessly melds Javanese elements with modern luxury aesthetics, promising guests a rejuvenating experience that extends beyond mere architectural confines. Positioned as a scholarly discourse, Omah TuiNa delves into the convergence of cultural narratives and the enduring quest for wellness, aiming to provide guests with a retreat-like experience within the urban landscape.

Abstract

Education is the leading force in human life, according to Kant's statement that humans can only become human through education. Humanistic education empowers individuals by fostering intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development. Art education, particularly within this community, serves as a tool to balance these aspects, promoting harmonious personality development. The Padhang Njingglang Community, founded by Anang Prasetyo in Tulungagung in 2008, targets children who are often overly reliant on digital technology and exhibit behavioral issues such as a lack of politeness and reduced engagement in traditional play. The role of the Padhang Njingglang Community is essential in addressing behavioral challenges among Generation Alpha children through humanistic art education. The community employs the "Happy Memory Activation" method, encouraging children to recall and express happy memories through drawing. This method helps children build self-confidence, enhance creativity, develop emotional awareness, and foster positive character traits. Research on this community is necessary because it emphasizes arts education and spiritual aspects, so it needs to be explored further. The study employs a qualitative phenomenology approach, utilizing data from interviews, observations, and children’s artworks to deeply understand the impact of this educational model.  Findings suggest that when combined with humanistic principles, art can be a transformative medium for childhood education, providing emotional and psychological benefits that extend into adulthood. The Padhang Njingglang Community exemplifies how integrating art into education can effectively address the unique challenges of modern childhood, especially in the digital age.

Abstract

This research investigates the impact of social media on young artists' self-image and creative process within a studio practice context, exploring how digital influences shape their visual identities and thematic choices. Through Feldman’s art criticism model comprising description, analysis, interpretation, and judgment, this study provides a structured critique of students’ artworks. It examines how social media aesthetics guide their artistic decisions and influence their conceptual frameworks. The study uses qualitative methods, including interviews, observations, visual analyses, and documentation, to capture primary data on the interaction between digital media and creative expression. Findings reveal that social media informs students’ stylistic choices and prompts critical reflection on external influences affecting their artistic practice. Feldman’s framework aids students in critically analyzing existing works, enhancing their observational skills, and strengthening their contextual and conceptual thinking during the initial stages of creation. This approach offers a valuable alternative pedagogical method for painting courses in art universities, encouraging students to engage analytically with digital aesthetics in their creative development.

Abstract

Every region in Indonesia has strong art with its characteristics, one of which is wood carving. Local wisdom in each region saves the uniqueness of its patterns and forms so that carving art in Indonesia becomes rich in identity and valuable cultural expressions. Of the many carving arts, the Batak region is famous for its carving art in the form of a lion, which is often found in the traditional houses of the Batak Toba. The lion carving symbolizes the figure of a generous king. In addition, lion ornaments in the Batak community are also believed to be bad luck repellents, which are thick with magical symbolic values inherited from the ancestors. Unfortunately, along with the times and technology, the art of Singa Batak carving is now starting to be forgotten and less recognized, especially by the younger generation. So, this research and design was carried out, as an effort to make local cultural artifacts closer to the current generation, especially in the Batak community and North Sumatra region. The research generally used a qualitative approach, namely visual adaptation. The result is a Latin typeface “Gorga”, inspired by the Singa Batak carving with the concept of “firm and dynamic”, which has been tested, then implemented on several regional tourism promotional media to preserve Batak culture through modern visual expression. This typeface is expected to be a bridge that perpetuates and preserves the noble values of Batak culture to the current and future generations.

Abstract

The bonding attachment between a mother and her baby is crucial and should be established as early as possible because it can significantly influence the baby’s psychological and social development. However, the public is often not fully aware of the long-term impact of this bond. The author transforms the concept of mother-baby bonding attachment into a tufting artwork, aiming to raise public awareness about its importance. This artwork not only highlights the significance of bonding attachment between mother and baby but also enriches the ideas and concepts of tufting art, providing the general public with a basic understanding of this vital connection. Tufting art is a technique used to create textile artworks by arranging and attaching threads to fabric with a specialized tufting tool, resulting in a rich, textured surface with tufted shapes. The method used is the practice-based research method or artistic research, consisting of literature research, drawing sketches, experiments, practices and possible outcomes. The outcome of this research is a tufting artwork that visually represents the bonding attachment between mother and baby. This artwork serves as both a reminder of the importance of the mother-child relationship and an effort to increase public awareness of the emotional bond’s vital role. There is still much room for further development in tufting art, especially with a broader approach. Future research could also explore combining tufting with other art media to create more diverse and impactful works.
