This study sets focus on problem of identity and melancholia which are framed in works of Southeast Asia contemporary art. Art works become main media to utter criticism of disrupted daily circumstances that slowly put the voices of the marginalized identity in burden. We start from acknowledge of liberating art space therefore it will be able to the acknowledge of art as bridging entity from the non-philosophy and philosophy framework. The acknowledge assists this writing in the placement of art as media of criticism so it won’t be stationed at acknowledge of art as an art. Then we determine Julia Kristeva’s suffering and melancholia theory as comparison analytics tools of the art works which took specific theme of cultural identity per region. In particular, we analyze the works of Southeast Asia contemporary artists as they took place at Bangkok Art Biennale 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand from October 19, 2018 – February 3, 2019. Comparison of every works assist us to the conclusion which strengthens our quest from earlier stage of exertion the art works as media to vocalize the social issues, conflict of identity, and minority oppression in the development of Southeast Asia contemporary art.

Balinese traditional dance and music are imbued with the values, cultural identity and artistic expression of the Balinese, with close links to the Hindu religion. Balinese Hindus in particular strongly believe that dance and music are mediums to bring them closer to the gods. In Bali, religion, art and culture are fused together in daily life. For the Balinese, no religious ceremony is complete without the presence of art and culture. Equally as important as dance and music, living in harmony with the environment for the sake of human survival is another strong conviction among the people of Bali. In addition to music and dance performances, nature is believed to hold many supernatural powers which cannot be understood by mankind. People are expected to maintain a harmonious relationship between all elements. This is why dance and music are continuously maintained and developed over time. The strong adherence of the Balinese people to Hinduism contributes to the preservation of traditional dance and music so that these traditions may never be lost. This paper was first presented on the Workshop of Hindu Art in Southeast Asia hosted by SEAMEO SPAFA, on May 28, 2017, at ISI Denpasar and has been peer-reviewed.

Similar to many Southeast Asian cultures, Vietnam has drawn its cultural identity from agriculture, particularly the rice culture. The rituals of Cầu mùa (Praying for a Fertile Crop) are present in the cultures of most of the peoples residing in Vietnam, from the highlands in the central area to the northern mountains. In Vietnam, the rituals of Cầu mùa are usually held in spring, the season for breaking ground and sowing, when farmers have a common wish for a fertile and bumper crop. However, ritual practice varies due to the diversity of environmental conditions, customs and the experiences of different communities. This article is a study of the similarity in concept and diversity in practice of the Cầu mùa rituals in Vietnam.This paper was presented at the Spiritual Dimensions of Rice Culture in Southeast Asia: Seminar, Rituals and Performances, organized by SEAMEO SPAFA on 11-14 May 2015 at Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand. It is part of an upcoming collected edition of papers presented at the seminar.
