Rejang Dance of East Bali
By balifriend | January 19, 2008
Rejang dance is one type of ceremonial dance. The dance is used to welcome the descendent God during temple ceremonies along with other ceremonial dance like warriors dance (baris gede). Rejang is normally performed in groups by young girls in the middle or inner yard of the temple. While Baris Gede is performed by group of men or boys.
Here are some of the pictures I took from several occasions. They include rejang in Tenganan village with their famous and expensive double ikat woven cloth. Also Rejang of Asak with round distinctive headdress and typical pattern of single ‘ikat’. Others are from village of Ngis, Basangalas and Abian Jero, all located underneath of Lempuyang village. The headdresses here are dominated with colorful leaves. The clothes are rather common and not uniform but still very colorful.
