Abstract

Proverb sits under the umbrella of figurative language and is used to sweeten speeches. In Malay, pepatah is the equivalent of this form of figurative language. Razak Abdul Aziz, a Malaysian composer, selected a set of Malay proverbs and adapted them into his piano work, Pepatah Episodes. The composer follows the tradition of piano programme music that uses figurative language elements championed by composers such as Alexander Scriabin, Claude Debussy, and Maurice Ravel. This paper aims to investigate the pepatahs chosen to be paired with the written music, expounding the programme in the movements for piano. Using the programme music analysis framework by Burkholder et al. (2014) and Kregor (2015), the finding shows that the composer chose the pepatahs for one of the three (3) portrayals: (i) imageries in the pepatah (ii) imageries in the meaning, and (iii) imageries in pepatah and meaning. The programme analysis shows that from the nine (9) movements written for piano, four (4) movements portray imageries in the pepatah, three (3) movements portray imageries in the meaning, and two (2) movements portray imageries in the pepatah and meaning. Razak Abdul Aziz challenges the conventions of programme music by having the pepatah set after the music is written, demanding the performer to read it aloud before performing and having the portrayal of the pepatah in the mentioned ways. This provides a different perspective for other composers to produce works using similar frameworks and scholars to analyse musical works.

Abstract

Meta-figurative is a physical aesthetic discourse that reaches beyond the physical beauty of ideal bodies (skeletal construction, muscles, and skins). The interpretation approaches used new criticism, according to Culler (2001), that goal to identify what the works repress or illuminate by concealing and portraying society and social attitudes. Meta-figurative encompasses exploration pertaining to the interchangeable position and condition between tensions and pleasures of bodies in the social space. Fifteen Indonesian contemporary artists are: Mangu Putra, Entang Wiharso, Chusin Setiadikara, Agus Suwage, FX Harsono, Ivan Sagito, Heri Dono, Ronald Manulang, Nyoman Masriadi, Nyoman Erawan, Putu Sutawijaya, Laksmi Sitaresmi, Made Djirna, Ugo Untoro, and Bob Sick Yuditha have been conducting creative efforts and questioning about matters of the bodies’ position in the public space, conducting current interpretation through personal artistic and aesthetical language. There are five representation tendencies of meta-figurative paintings thematically, artistic images, and visual meanings: marginalized bodies, fictionalized bodies, bodies of expression, autobiographical bodies, and beyond famous portraits. Indonesian contemporary artists have made figurative subjects in their paintings to make statements, self-reflections, and moral voices of their country’s socio-political conditions, which are educational values of Indonesian Contemporary Paintings in social meaning. Poverty, corruption, and anti-democracy practices still part of Indonesian daily realities are area protests for contemporary artists.

Abstract

Troso woven cloth, located in Troso village, Jepara city, is one of the various Indonesian cultural heritages first discovered in AD. The purposes of this study are: 1) to investigate the woven cloth and its uses, the relationship between woven cloth with cultural and religious traditions, and the relationship between the woven cloth and local identity; 2) to design a new motif of Troso woven cloth that incorporates the elements of Jepara culture. The study used a practice-based research approach. The data were collected by purposive sampling technique. The results showed that the local community commonly uses woven fabric products as decorative. Troso cloth is also used to design attires, gamis dresses, or koko shirts for the feast day or formal events. The craftsmen of Troso woven fabrics made in Jepara primarily receive orders with motifs from other regions, including Bali, Sumatra, and Kalimantan. In contrast, the original woven fabric motifs distinctive from Troso are rarely known to the general public. The study formulates a new digital-based motif of the Troso fabric pattern that displays the iconic elements of Jepara city. The iconic depictions of Jepara are in the form of turtles, Jepara wooden carvings, and wave patterns. This research is expected to elevate the Troso fabric’s identity as a local identity of Jepara city and contribute to the Troso village community to develop the Troso fabric unique to the region.

Abstract

The Sundanese script is one of Indonesia’s traditional scripts. The existence of Sundanese script is still being preserved by cultural activists and the Sundanese script literacy community, one of which is through calligraphy in Sundanese script. This article will analyze the calligraphy of Sundanese script by Edi Dolan posted on his social media. The Sundanese calligraphy that will be discussed is in the form of puppets, animals, and humans. The Sundanese calligraphy will be reviewed through an iconographic approach. Iconography has three levels in analyzing objects, namely (1) Pre-iconography, which is to describe the formal aspects of the object; (2) Iconography, which is to interpret images, stories, and metaphors; (3) Content analysis through revealing the intricacies of the object. The results of the research elaborate on the formal aspects found in Sundanese calligraphy objects, resulting in multidimensional interpretations built on images, stories, and other multidimensional object meanings, thus showing a complete correlation of all these aspects in expressing Sundanese identity.

Abstract

The presence of Toki Batu music in Ulahahan Village as a cultural product cannot be separated from the musical narrative of the Maluku people, which has been part of social and cultural life since ancient times. This study aims to explain the concept of inclusiveness within the group and its functional role in society as an inclusive music community. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative with an ethnographic approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. The study results explain that the concept of inclusiveness in the Ulahahan Babatu Orchestra community lies in membership open to people from various backgrounds, both children and adults. The Community also does not provide special requirements to be able to join the group because Toki Batu’s music belongs to the Community, and anyone should be able to contribute. The leadership style used is based on local culture by adopting respect for elders. As a result, the leader is someone who is older and more experienced in community management rather than someone who has mastered music. Functionally the role of the Toki Batu music community revives community creativity and influences collectively in various fields such as recreational, educational, communication and religious facilities.

Abstract

Marugame Udon is a Japanese fast-food restaurant chain with many branches in Indonesia. This study examines the conveyance of the Japanese atmosphere to visitors as a performance. Interior research based on performance theory has not been widely conducted. This study aims to determine the performative influence of Marugame Udon’s interior on visitors by exploring Richard Schechner’s performance aspects (action, interaction, relationship). This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method to deeply explore data from visitors and interior elements. The data collection techniques used are observation, in-depth interviews, literature study, and company profile reading. Data analysis is done by reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions and recommendations. The findings of this study are: (1) the “action” exploration finds that the interior display is a manifestation of Marugame Udon’s identity as a Japanese restaurant chain and its commitment to introducing Japanese culture, especially Sanuki; (2) the “interaction” exploration finds that the presence of interior elements is a mutually dependent system in displaying the atmosphere (Japanese), and visitors interact most with noren and the theater kitchen; (3) the “relationship” exploration reveals that Marugame Udon does not only act as a restaurant providing food and drinks but also as a stimulating agent that influences visitors’ perceptions and evokes their memories and desires related to Japanese culture. These three findings indicate that Marugame Udon’s interior is a static performative ecosystem that can interact and form relationships with visitors.
