Abstract

The Covid-19 phenomenon inspired this study to assist government programs to combat the dangers of Covid-19 through an innovative Wayang or puppet shadow. So, through the innovative puppet shadow entitled "Sang Kala Korona," the writer participated in disseminating the program and the government's call for the prevention of Covid-19. It is hoped that the puppet shadow will educate the public to carry out all government calls and be able to sort out the legitimacy of news that appears on social media. In creating this puppet shadow, the writer tried to motivate himself by the phenomena in society to get new, original ideas so that the elements that bring up this work can unite in a harmonious whole. The creation of the Innovative Wayang as an educational means to prevent the spread of COVID-19 “Sang Kala Korona” considered aspects of wholeness, simplicity, complexity, and sincerity to fulfill the aesthetic goals. The creation activities were implemented using Alma M. Hawkins theory namely; the exploration, the improvisation, and the form. The purpose of this work was, besides expressing a new idea to add to the diversity of types of Balinese puppets shadow, it can also be a form of creativity and appreciation of social phenomena as a positive activity. This wayang or puppet shadow can also convey to all of us to be aware of the dangers that can threaten us, especially the virus.
