Abstract

Visual studies on Gunungan or traditional ritual ceremony is a complexity between cultural products in the form of visuals, meanings and symbols that contain deep philosophical elements. Gunungan is a series of Garebeg events in Karaton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat. The visual of Gunungan Estri looks like bokor that consists of various sticky rice and cassava products which are arranged in a pile like bowl. Gunungan was chosen as the object of study because it was always awaited by the community and routinely held every year as a way for the king to give alms to his people. It is considered to be the closest symbol of the Karaton (Javanese palace) and easily recognizable to the general public. This study explores the implicit meaning of Gunungan Estri as a female symbol in Karaton traditional ritual. The method used is qualitative with the approach of cultural anthropology. The theories are art tourism, cultural, critical studies, postmodern. It is found out that Gunungan Estri in garebeg was born as a visual actualization of Javanese philosophy in viewing the position of women in the Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat Palace.

Keywords: garebeg, women, Karaton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat.
