This photo project captures the contrast between tradition and modernity through two young Condong dancers. The dancer in the back symbolizes the ideal Balinese performer, meticulously dressed in traditional attire and flawless makeup, embodying cultural perfection. In contrast, the dancer in the front reflects a growing detachment from cultural heritage among the youth. Her chaotic, poorly assembled costume represents a carelessness and lack of respect for tradition, highlighting the tension between preserving cultural identity and the influence of contemporary, less attentive attitudes.
