Wartakawarsa, warta which means message ,and kawarsa which means inner self or the purest form of self
(an anagram of karsa (force of the soul that drives living beings to will) and kawasa (in sundanise language means to rule/to master)).

Wartakawarsa is a contemporary work, based on ceremonial ritual art
methods with the aim to cleanse or purify places that hold dark memories. In the philosophy of sugihan, a traditional Javanese/ Indonesian ceremonial rituals, it refers to the cleansing process to honor the
creator and ancestors, to cleanse the earth for future generations, and to maintain the stability of the world so that the layers of the upper and lower dimensions remain on their axis, the philosophy of sugihan become the base intention of the cleansing ritual.

Wartakawarsa then brought to real world by Orcyworld and Bintang Manira Manik in a form of short film and live performance. The characters and language are designed by Gilang Anom Manapu Manik aka Orcyworld and music and soundscape by Bintang Manira Manik.
