This media file captures two elaborately crafted Wayang Klithik puppets, displayed in what appears to be a museum or exhibition setting in West Jakarta, Indonesia. The puppets, originating from the Yogyakarta style, are showcased against a plain white background behind a clear protective barrier, evident from faint reflections. The upper puppet is larger and more ornate, featuring a vibrant red and black headpiece, patterned attire in green, blue, and brown hues, and intricate details. It depicts a dynamic figure, possibly a warrior or mythological character, mounted or in an active stance, with multiple movable parts suggested by the rods extending from it. The lower puppet is smaller and simpler, portraying a human-like figure in profile, looking upwards. It wears a green top and a patterned skirt or sarong, with a blue and white head covering. Both puppets are made of thin wood, painted with traditional motifs. An informational panel to the right provides context about the artifacts. The visible text, both in Indonesian and English, identifies them as "WAYANG KLITHIK GAYA JOGJAKARTA." It explains that Wayang Klithik puppets are made of thin wood, and their name comes from the "klithik-klithik" sound they make when played. Performances of Wayang Klithik Jogjakarta style typically feature the epic story of Damarwulan and can still be seen monthly at the Sultanate Palace. A QR code is also visible on the panel. The image essentially documents a cultural exhibit, highlighting traditional Indonesian puppetry.
