The Relationship Between Humans & Nature Through Performing Arts from Kalimantan & Sumatra

The cultural heritage passed down from our ancestors reminds us of the importance of gratitude for the abundant gifts of nature in the archipelago.

Like Nosu Minu Podi from Kalimantan and Tandok Uning-uningan from Sumatra, these artistic expressions carry a message: that nature and rice are more than just sources of food, they are the very breath of life.

Through ritual and art, communities nurture their bond with nature, celebrate the harvest, and affirm a sense of gratitude carried across generations.
