The Digital Dozen Does Countries & Cultures - Day 4: Pendet Dancer (Bali)


The Digital Dozen Does Countries & Cultures - Day 4: Pendet Dancer (Bali)

"Pendet is a traditional dance from Bali, Indonesia, in which offerings are made to purify the temple or theater as a prelude to ceremonies or other dances. Pendet is typically performed by young girls, carrying bowls of flower petals, handfuls of which are cast into the air at various times in the dance. Pendet can be thought of as a dance of greeting, to welcome the audience and invite spirits to enjoy a performance."

The Digital Dozen Does Countries & Cultures - Day 3: Wayang


The Digital Dozen Does Countries & Cultures - Day 3: Wayang

"Wayang (Krama Javanese: Ringgit) is a Javanese word for particular kinds of theatre. When the term is used to refer to kinds of puppet theatre, sometimes the puppet itself is referred to as wayang. Performances of shadow puppet theatre are accompanied by a gamelan orchestra in Java, and by gender wayang in Bali.
UNESCO designated wayang kulit, a shadow puppet theatre and the best known of the Indonesian wayang, as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity on 7 November 2003. In return for the acknowledgment, UNESCO required Indonesians to preserve their heritage"

Our Cultural Heritage! #Indonesianbatiknails (Mega Mendung)

Hello everyone!!

For those who follow me on Instagram, you probably already know that today we have this...
Wow! I'm really excited about this event because few days ago I just created my first batik nails for the Day 26 of 31DC (you can see my full post about it here) and just couple days ago I barely knew that we, the Indonesian nail art lovers, have this on Instagram!! I surely don't wanna miss it!

The theme for this event is Mega Mendung. Never heard about it? Here, let me introduce you to our beautiful batik.

Batik is a cloth that is traditionally made using a manual wax-resist dyeing technique. We have so many kind of batik, there're Buketan (influenced by European flower bouquet), Mega Mendung (means cloudy, influenced by Chinese), Pucuk Tombak (means spearhead), etc.
