In this piece, I aim to portray the grandeur of the Sang Hyang Dedari dance, a captivating form of expression. What makes this dance genuinely extraordinary is the dancer's possession by a spirit, leading them to gracefully move atop the shoulders of men in an unconscious state. To visually depict this enchanting dance, I employ spontaneous lines that convey a sense of immediacy, complemented by the distinct colors associated with Sanghyang Dedari.
