Abstract

This study explores the Panji Mask in Yogyakarta. The development and shift in the function of the Panji Mask result in its unique aesthetic value due to the influence of postmodernism and can be seen in the resulting visual form. This study used a qualitative descriptive case study approach. Data were obtained through observations, interviews, and documentation. Triangulation was used for data validation, while the analysis was conducted using phenomenological observations. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that the Panji Mask is an element of a ritual ceremony as well as dance performance in which the function has shifted into a contemporary decoration piece that serves to preserve Indonesian culture. The visual form of the postmodern Panji Mask implies the notion of deconstruction as it becomes more flexible and can be produced according to the customer’s request in terms of the decoration and coloring. The Panji Mask experiences a shift into a wall art piece for room decoration.
