Abstract

Child sexual abuse is a global issue that has serious impacts on children’s physical, psychological, and social development. In Indonesia, sexual violence is the most dominant form of violence experienced by children, highlighting the urgent need for early prevention efforts. One approach that can be implemented is through educational media that aligns with children’s developmental stages. This study aims to design a pop-up book as an educational medium to raise early childhood awareness of body boundaries, the concepts of safe and unsafe touch, and basic self-protection skills. This study employs a design-based approach by integrating visual communication elements such as illustration, color, composition, and interactive pop-up mechanisms. Data were collected through literature review and interviews with early childhood educators to determine appropriate visual and educational strategies. The result of this study is the design of a pop-up book titled “Aku dalam Lingkaran Aman”, intended for children aged 4–6 years. The book incorporates cartoon-style illustrations with the use of bright colors and simple yet communicative visual compositions. In addition, the design is supported by interactive mechanisms such as lift-the-flap, movement pop-up, and rotating pop-up, which enhance the delivery of content in a visual and concrete manner. Each page is sequentially designed to convey concepts of body awareness, safe touch, responses to unsafe situations, and the concept of a “safe circle” as a form of child protection.

Abstract

Emotional paradox describes the experience of conflicting emotions that occur simultaneously within an individual. This phenomenon appears when people express emotions that differ from their actual feelings in social interactions, creating a gap between external expressions and internal experiences. This project explores emotional paradox through painting to increase awareness of emotional honesty, reflection, and empathy. The project applies a practice-based research method in which artistic creation becomes the main process of knowledge development. The creation process includes four stages: exploration, design, realization, and finishing. The exploration stage involves observation and visual reference collection, while the design stage develops visual concepts through sketches. The realization stage applies painting techniques including blocking, layering, blending, splattering, sponge, and impasto, followed by detailing and varnishing in the finishing stage. The project produces four paintings entitled Traitor, Fragile Freedom, Ruang yang Terbagi (Divided Space), and Unbalanced. These artworks use surrealistic visual elements to represent emotional paradox and encourage reflection on emotional experiences.

Abstract

Wood carving is a traditional art form that has flourished in Jepara, with carved wood frequently utilized as ornamentation in mosque architecture. The Al-Falah Margoyoso Mosque is one such structure that incorporates these carvings, serving both to preserve the art of wood carving and to showcase a fusion of Middle Eastern architectural styles with traditional artistry. This study aims to uncover the meanings and values ​​embedded in the carvings by analyzing the motifs and symbolism found on the *mihrab* (prayer niche) and side walls of the Al-Falah Margoyoso Mosque. Specifically, the research seeks to identify the wood carvings present, the types of motifs employed, their symbolic significance, and the underlying values ​​they convey. A descriptive qualitative research method was adopted, utilizing data collection techniques such as observation, structured interviews, documentation, and literature review. Data analysis involved data collection, reduction, presentation, conclusion drawing, and verification. The findings reveal that the *mihrab* and side walls of the Al-Falah Margoyoso Mosque feature diverse wood-carved motifs, each carrying distinct symbolic meaning. These carvings embody various values, including those related to the Divine, religion, social interaction, morality, and cultural preservation.
