Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 06
Abstract
Bali is known worldwide for most of its people's activities using handicrafts; one of the most commonly found arts and crafts is Balinese ornaments. Ornaments are very well developed, not only to decorate temples, but also to decorate traditional houses, and tourism commodity needs. Some Balinese ornaments symbolically have particular meanings and symbolize something based on culture, customs, beliefs, and also religion. Understanding the form and function of Balinese ornaments is very important to improve knowledge and services to the community, not only locally, nationally, but also internationally. To overcome this, Balinese ornaments need to be developed comprehensively and holistically, especially to improve practical and theoretical knowledge. The art-based research method is to introduce the finished ornament drawing or drawing in stages, and the introduction of its function. Therefore, this research is important to improve the understanding of ornaments. Some of the ornaments discussed are keketusan (independent loose shapes), pepatran (vines), kekarangan (stylization of the faces of living beings), and wayang. An understanding of ornaments can improve artistic insight, especially in the application of the form and function of Balinese ornaments. It is expected that Balinese ornaments will continue to develop in form and function following the times to answer the needs of local and global art.
