Synopsis
In this captivating dance, performers use a payung – a graceful parasol – symbolizing protection, elegance, and dignity. The parasol is dynamically incorporated into the choreography: sometimes as a shield, sometimes as an extension of the dancer, continuously creating new images and meanings. The movements combine the graceful arm and hand gestures and the vibrant expressiveness characteristic of Balinese dance. By alternating between flowing and powerful moments, the dance reflects both the traditional heritage and the creativity of the new generation. Tari Kompang is not just a visual celebration of Indonesian culture; it is also an invitation to experience tradition and modernity coming together. It shows how ancient symbols, like the payung, are given new life within a contemporary artistic form.
