The Indonesian Arts Institute (ISI) Denpasar (Bali) continues to strengthen the realization of its educational outcomes on the international stage. After involving four groups of faculty, educational staff, and students in a community service activity in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, it recently participated in the prestigious “Fête de l’Archipel” (Festival of the Archipelago) by presenting a performance of Indonesian traditional dance and a fashion show titled Waruna Mukti Dwipantara, held at the InterContinental Paris Hotel in France, on October 4, 2023.
ISI Denpasar’s participation was by invitation from the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia to France, Y.M. Mohamad Oemar. Prior to the performance, a workshop on gamelan and dance was held with the Gamelan Panca Indera Paris group, which consists of seven Balinese and Javanese gamelan players from France.
The Festival of the Archipelago, organized by the Indonesian Embassy in Paris, includes a range of activities, such as economic and trade promotion, culinary exhibitions, business forums, and cultural evenings. It also involves the government, business groups, Indonesian communities, and the diaspora.
Ambassador Oemar mentioned that the festival aims to enhance bilateral cooperation between Indonesia and France. The events held during the festival serve as an effort to promote potential areas of collaboration, including in education and culture. “ISI Denpasar plays an important role in representing the wealth of Indonesian art and culture, which can be enjoyed by the audience in Paris,” said the Ambassador, who is also Indonesia’s Permanent Delegate to UNESCO.
Waruna Mukti Dwipantara is an innovative new creation, a performance of Indonesian arts developed by ISI Denpasar’s faculty and students. This work blends aesthetic elements of Nusantara dance and music with modern academic innovations, highlighting the theme of the maritime glory of the archipelago.
The Rector of ISI Denpasar and leader of the performance team, Prof. Dr. I Wayan Adnyana, S.Sn., M.Sn., explained that the performance is part of the Global-Bali Arts and Creativity Centre Hub (G-BACCH) program, Bali Nata Bhuwana Internasional. This program is a realization of the learning outcomes of ISI Denpasar students. The festival served as a platform to disseminate these outcomes internationally. “This event aligns with ISI Denpasar’s vision of becoming a center of excellence in arts and culture, grounded in local wisdom with a universal outlook,” said the rector, who is affectionately called Prof. Kun.
He added that the artistic presentation, which reflects the unique cultural characteristics of various regions in Indonesia, was combined with a fashion show. The performance was prepared by ISI Denpasar’s faculty and students since September 2023, with intensive rehearsals for the best performance.
The Waruna Mukti Dwipantara performance began with a Gambang Suling concert and Oleg Tamulilingan dance, followed by a medley titled Nusantara Murti, featuring Gambyong, Mandau, and Janger dances. The peak of the event featured the Waruna Mukti Dwipantara dance, which tells the story of the Kingdom of Kutai in East Kalimantan, with King Mulawarman and his queen, steering the ship of the kingdom’s glory, until the current Indonesian leadership’s efforts to build the new capital city, Nusantara.
The entire performance was presented by 10 ISI Denpasar students. These included five students from the Dance Department: Made Lola Giarda Putri, Ni Putu Vania Dea Amelinda, Putu Devi Kariasih, I Komang Aswinka Krisnanda, and I Made Yuandika Pramudia; and five students from the Karawitan (Gamelan) Department: I Kadek Anggra Dwianta, Made Dwi Nadyanta Smara, I Dewa Gede Rama Aditya Suputra, I Kadek Agus Erwan Maherwan, and Ni Putu Shinta Mahadewi. Also involved in the performance were Vice Rector for Planning and Cooperation, Prof. Dr. I Komang Sudirga, S.Sn., Karawitan faculty member Saptono, S.Sen., M.Si, and Laboratory Head of Karawitan, I Made Dwi Andika Putra, S.Sn., M.Sn.
The accompanying gamelan music for the performance used Gong Semarandana, combined with Javanese gamelan, and was played by ISI Denpasar’s musicians in collaboration with the Panca Indra Arts Community in Paris.
In addition to the Nusantara dance performance, a fashion show featuring a collection by Nata Kerti Fashion Designer was also presented. Seven outfits made from endek fabric with a dominant maroon color were showcased during the event. These designs, created by faculty and students from ISI Denpasar’s Fashion Design Program, were modeled by students I Komang Pramudia Indraswara and Ni Kadek Pradnyawati, alongside other models.
The performance was attended by Ambassador Y.M. Mohamad Oemar, Ambassador of Indonesia to UNESCO Prof. Dr. Ismunandar, Education and Cultural Attaché of the Indonesian Embassy in Paris Dr. Ni Luh Anik Mayani, French government officials, members of the diplomatic corps, business people, academics, and the Indonesian community in Paris.
Ambassador Oemar expressed his appreciation for the Nusantara dance and fashion show presented by ISI Denpasar. He stated that the audience was deeply impressed by the performance, particularly the harmonious blend of dance and gamelan, which effectively conveyed the intended story. The fashion showcased the distinctiveness of traditional Balinese woven fabric. “Everyone who witnessed the performance greatly enjoyed it. It was indeed a beautifully presented work,” he remarked.
Oemar also expressed his gratitude to the Rector of ISI Denpasar for attending the invitation and preparing the performance. “This is an exceptional support from ISI Denpasar for the Indonesian Embassy’s program,” he concluded at the end of the event. (ISIDps/Public Relations).
