Balinese Barong Dance in Jakarta Prayer Hall
by Jolene Rios
Broad skylight from heavy overcast skies washes a spacious prayer hall in Menteng, Jakarta, in a cool, gray afternoon glow. A massive Balinese Barong figure, woven from fibers and painted in earthy ochres and deep greens, stands center stage. Performers in traditional batik and white shirts cluster tightly around the lion-like creature, their patterns vivid against the muted light. Layers of fabric on the dancers suggest the cool season. Overhead beams illuminate intricate beadwork on the Barong's mask. The frayed edge of a dancer's sash rests on the smooth concrete floor at the edge of the frame.
