Abstract: This study is aimed at finding the positive movement of feminism by Kartini in influencing the socio-cultural
development for female art students in their art creation, and analyzing its development in education today
compared to those in Kartini’s era. The socio-cultural development in education is assumed to influence the
female education throughout Kartini’s movement and belief. Currently, the existing phenomena in which
millennial generation is very active in responding the updated information technology, influences the female
art students in doing any movement for their art creation. As they are no longer trapped inside the domestic
paradigm in education as being found in Kartini’s era, the progressive development of emancipation can be
seen from any art creation and other art behaviors carried out by female art students. This is a qualitative
research and uses descriptive method by doing the observation and in-depth interview to collect data. The
results of this study reveal that there is an active movement by the female art students in responding Kartini’s
emancipation throughout their art creation and behavior, and current education has shown the socio-cultural
development for millennial generation, particularly for female art students to exist.
1 INTRODUCTION
Looking at the role of female in a patriarchal family
pattern in some parts of Indonesia that places female
as the one who should work for a domestic area
becomes a paradigm that remains rooted in most
societies. In Javanese society, stereotypes of female
can be seen in the expression of swarga nunut neraka
katut, a wife must obey her husband. Moreover, the
statement of kanca wingking which became a popular
term indicating the status of Javanese female for some
decades truly has affected the progressive
development of emancipation in Indonesia.
According to feminists, these cultural barriers arise
because of the cultural heritage of primitive societies
in which men as hunters while female as gatherers. In
terms of the status and stereotypes towards Javanese
women, it is definitively supported by
Kusumohamidjojo (2009: 93) that the status is as a
position in the individual place in society, while the
role is the activity undertaken by the individual to
realize his status. In other words, role is a function to
run a status.
Along with the active movement of women’s
emancipation since the time of Kartini (a prominent
Indonesian female heroine and a pioneer in the area
of education for girls and female's rights) until now,
the paradigm of female in which they are domiciled
under men is no longer applicable, especially with the
social, economic, and cultural changes for placing
female's position is equal to men. Before the women’s
movement, Kartini herself has been set as a
benchmark aspiration for Indonesian women. Kartini
who is acclaimed as the pioneer of the Indonesian
women’s movement and a champion of education, as
well as a national heroine, has actively affected on
what is today as being a kartini. A kartini can mean a
woman in general, but the term more usually means
an exceptional, modern woman, a leader in her field.
This is framed not just as particular women
continuing Kartini's aspirationsbut as having
become ‘kartinis’ themselves (Mahy, 2012: 6-7).
It is a qualitative research and the descriptive
method was used by doing the observation and in-
depth interview to twenty informants consisting of
female students of four music study programs at

Yogyakarta for data collection. This study explores
the positive movement of feminism by Kartini in
influencing the socio-cultural development for
female art students in their art creation, and analyzing
its development in education today compared to those
in Kartini’s era. Female art students’ points of views
and experiences enable writers to analyze as well as
to contribute to a better understanding of today’s
female education seen from Kartini’s emancipation
context.
2 DISCUSSION
Today, as the social movement has reached out the
very basic gender issues, women are there, soaring
their existence and potentials as what Kartini’s belief
on emancipation. It is also responded by modern
people who are being more educated and
understanding their roles. In education field,
compared to Kartini’s era in which education was
dominated only for men and noble families, the trend
of female education in Indonesia is more in pursuing
girls and women to close the gender gaps which
existed for some decades. During the millennium era,
female students who are familiar with the updated
technology have more tendency in utilizing the
technology for upgrading their existence and insights.
These phenomena have also a part of sociocultural
development in which the current technology leads
them to show up and fulfil the education need.
2.1 Kartini’s Education Movement
Based on the Oxford dictionary the word
"emancipation" is (1) "the fact that the process is
being set free from legal, social, or political
restrictions; liberation." This reveals a situation
where a person initially finds himself confined or
locked up, in which he is not free to move on what he
wants to do. Even Oxford mentions the next
understanding, which looks more extreme, namely
(2) "The freeing of someone from slavery."
Understanding these words brings another dimension
to the meaning of loose and unrestricted and able to
stand alone. The word 'slave' is very far from an
appreciation for work, life and work. The status of
women and their existence with the life upheaval and
phenomena have indirectly reflected to what Kartini
did for female emancipation, particularly for female
education. With all her strong efforts to break in
Javanese level of socio-cultural found in Javanese
people at that time, Kartini was able to instruct the
simple dominant effect to Javanese female by giving
more freedom to exist and have basic education.

able to instruct the simple dominant effect to Javanese
female by giving more freedom to exist and have
basic education. Kartini’s friendships and interaction
with the Dutch feminist, Stella Zeehandelaar,
throughout their letters strongly became the valuable
contribution not only to the female education
development in Java but also to the progressive
development of emancipation. Kartini’s letter to
Stella was able to emphasize the importance of
education and emancipation which can be found as
written in two pages of her letter.

Kartini’s relationship with Mrs. Rosa Manuela
Abendanon has contributed to education for bumi
putera (Indonesia people) particularly for Kartini and
her sisters. It is reflected on Kartini’s letter to Mrs.
Rosa Abendanon which had given her a bigger insight
on how she enjoyed education by learning a lot of
science, social and culture with her hobby of reading
ICONARTIES 2019 - 1st International Conference on Interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities
248
books or newspapers in Dutch. She wrote a lot of
letters to friends in the Netherlands about the
complaints of the fate of Javanese women who could
not receive good education. In addition, she wrote a
letter about the number of women who were married
at a relatively young age. Since then, she was amazed
by the mindset of European women, then she wanted
to promote and fight for the rights and emancipation
of women by setting up schools for women so they
could study and learn. Her noble ideals arose because
she felt sad to see her people were restricted in
freedom of expression, low education, and even many
of them did not attend school
(https://astacala.org/2016/04/aku-ingin-feminisme-
dan-nasionalisme/, accessed on August 25
th
, 2018).
Furthermore, Kartini’s letter to Mrs. Abendanon
then moved steadily toward a more comprehensive
engagement with both Western and Indonesian
culture, retaining a strongly feminist position but
emphasizing the cultural difference and the dignity
and worth of Javanese culture (Celarent, 2016: 1005).

According to Kuntowijoyo (2006: 47), in each
level of society, education is conducted either
formally throughout educational institutions or
informally throughout means of social
communication. Kartini’s firstly movement in
education has reflected the informal education by
which she delivered her messages to Javanese women
with her private teaching. In the early 20
th
century,
Kartini demanded and requested to her father for
giving her wider opportunity to get good education, it
could represent the goal of the liberal feminism
movement, namely when she asked her father to be
given the same opportunity as her older brother to
continue her education to a higher level, secondary
school in Kota Semarang, Central Java, and according
to her, from the results of the school's education, even
though she was a woman, "she could become fully
human, without stopping being a full woman"
(Kartini in Rajab 2009: 6).
Meanwhile, women organizations in Indonesia
supported the movement as there was the National
Women’s Congress in 1928 for which it gave
recommendations and articles that were published in
women’s organization’s journals. The important
article on women’s movement was that concerned
with gender equality in education and suffrage, the
rights of equal pay for equal work, child and women
trafficking, marriage law, prostitution and child
marriage. In the late colonial era, it focused more
directly on education, suffrage and marriage law
(Qibtiyah, 2009:175). Since then, female education
becomes one of the crucial issues as it relates to
gender issues in Indonesia.
2.2 Socio-cultural Development of
Education
Pioneered by Kartini for emancipation throughout
education, more heroines took part for promoting
female education, such as Dewi Sartika and Rasuna
Said. As it was very important for them to enhance
the emancipation, therefore they seek to promote and
prosper Indonesian women by organizing special
education and schools for women (Wieringa in
Aliyah, et.al, 2018:148). As a result of a very long
social progression, female education has been viewed
important by understanding the point of United
Nation declaration on education. United Nations
(UN) organizations aim to enforce basic human rights
including education for all. Article 26 (1) of the
Universal Nations Declaration of Human Rights
stated that:
“Everyone has the right to education. Education shall
be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental
stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory.
Technical and professional education shall be made
generally available and higher education shall be
Socio-cultural Development of Female Education: Kartini Context for Female Art Students
249
equally accessible to all on the basis of merit (UN,
1948)”.
It strongly supports the issue of basic education in
Indonesia, particularly for female education. It is also
in line with the need for education that can be a strong
part of culturally world development. Furthermore,
education was also organized to reinforce the
patriarchal relations which existed in both the public
and private spheres of social life (Brown and Lauder,
1991:5).
The impact of Kartini's struggle on sociocultural
development for the millennial generation is now
believed by informants who have different responses.
They argued that there has been a figure who can be
a role model for women in Indonesia to come forward
and bring changes, especially for women themselves.
In addition, more women are challenged to continue
to upgrade their quality by competing to be inspiring
among themselves. Women are considered capable of
doing so because of the potential for women to allow
this to happen. According to Aliyah et al. (2018: 151),
this leads to feminist meaning for the Indonesian
people, namely to seek opportunities for freedom or
women's independence for women. According to an
informant, the feminist movement in Indonesian
history has nothing to do with the treatment bias
towards men because women only want to put
themselves better in this nation. This is also stated by
several informants who argued that from the
emancipation movement by Kartini, there were also
pros and contras, but the positive impact of this was
clearly a significant development, especially the
women's movement in their own fields. This is
obviously a matter of pride. But many of them did not
understand the impact of "women’s emancipation"
because today there are some groups of women who
are too fanatical about feminism which is very
unfortunate to occur in its capacity to support the
women's emancipation movement. In addition, there
were informants who stated that there are also many
millennials who do not fully understand the meaning
of the history of Kartini's struggle for future women,
so that not a few people still have a patriarchal view.
This can be seen from the evidence that many women
have had the opportunity to lead certain regions in
Indonesia, although there are still residents in some
places who refuse female leaders. But this is an
interesting thing when there is another important
phenomenon expressed by the informants, namely
that women get the same opportunity to serve the
nation's advancement. And this can be seen from the
increasing number of women who occupy important
positions in governmental sectors and society.
Furthermore, recently women have begun to be taken
into account in terms of arguing and working by
presenting women as people's representatives in the
House of Representatives who are occupied by
women, so as the case with national political figures
which are represented by women.
Moreover, in the art sector every woman and man
gets the same opportunity in terms of working for the
artworks and exploring their art potentials. It is then
supported by the emergence of female and of cultural
experts who not only have actively proven their
existence with their works, but also have been able to
bring about an important message to the emancipation
of women at national and international levels. In other
words, women are not underestimated like they used
to be.
Another important thing conveyed by the
informants was that Kartini’s struggle had a big
influence in the current millennial era. Millennial
women prioritize education and assume that their
duty is not only to take care of the household but also
to work and have a career. One of the important things
about the impact of female education by Kartini is
from the emerging of sophisticated technological
influences for women which are continuously seen in
the era of millennial generation, namely women are
increasingly free to access and utilize current
technology, information technology, and digital work
for being updated and known. Created technology has
no limit to its usage for women. Nevertheless, it is one
of the effects of Kartini's struggle for women’s
emancipation. Should Kartini not fight for women's
emancipation, it could be happened that the
technology was not accessible to women.
Consequently, women are not able to freely work
with the existing technology.
On the other hand, the one of influences on
Kartini's emancipation in the millennial era is that
many young female activists have encountered
expressing their opinions through various actions.
But from this phenomenon there are also many
women who have less manners as a result of freedom
of expressing their thoughts. From this experience the
meaning of women's emancipation becomes biased as
it should some important consideration that women
must understand. Formal education is considered a
vehicle or ladder that allows women to follow the
flow of modernization and be involved in the
development of science and technology. But the
women who want the change must also be aware that
the emancipation efforts they demand will not leave
behind the various tasks they carry out in the domestic
sphere. In other words, even though they are eager to
ICONARTIES 2019 - 1st International Conference on Interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities
250
and can be active in the public sphere, the domestic
realm will still be their main task (Rajab, 2009: 6).
In the field of education, Kartini's role is evident
from the views of informants where women are
increasingly recognized in the community and can
participate in the world of education and culture.
According to Kartini’s perception on education, a
girl’s right to go to school is the only effective way to
achieve her true emancipation and to deal with the
problem of the oppression of all women. If women
were well educated, not only women themselves but
the entire people would benefit because women were
the mothers and the first educators at home, and
constituted the moral bedrock of society (Stuers in
Qibtiyah, 2009:177). Therefore, it is assumed that
from the education owned by women, there will be
more educated generations with moral values who
will have a strong influence on the social
development of society. Women are better able to get
the opportunity to make their own choices compared
to before, even though today there are still many
parents who still consider the role of girls are not as
significant as the boys’ in society and in higher
education. Dienye (2011: 16) stated education
therefore performs a most significant complex social
function of the control of tools for societal
development.
This development is understood as a good thing
for the socio-cultural development of female
education in Indonesia. Kartini's role admittedly has
a very significant impact on gender equality which
believes that men and women have the same rights in
many ways, and this has already been strengthened.
The existence of women in the midst of society is
increasingly seen, after previously seen only 'curled
up' into pots in the kitchen. Nowadays men and
women are equally mentioned in various aspects, in
terms of education, rights and opinions, profession,
position, etc. Women at the social level are equal to
men in which more and more women can take a
portion (an example of a portion of work) from men.
In the past, young women had to be secluded,
married, and took care of the household because they
had to follow the strict customary law. But nowadays,
women have the same social position as men and
there are laws that guarantee women's freedom. As
women get more access nowadays, its progressive
movement is as seen as the postmodernism
orientation which states that there is a “specificity” of
women's movement. In another word, a woman has
her own self-potential and the position of women in
that society is admitted. As women get more access
nowadays, its progressive movement is as seen as the
postmodernism orientation which states that there is
a “specificity” of women's movement. In another
word, a woman has her own self-potential and the
position of women in that society is admitted. And the
specificity that exists is necessary to be respected and
the women must be given more space to be more
developed, with no harassment, subordinated.
Providing more open spaces is more essential so that
the potential of women can be heard and articulated
as voices and discourses, and even become the
practice of everyday life, which originates from
women themselves, not from the representation of
patriarchal ideology (Rajab, 2009: 11).
2.3 Women’s Emancipation: Education
and the Arts
The amount of art produced by men is indeed more
than that of female artists in the world. In an event on
gender equality in art, Rasmus A. Kristenten said that
"If you see art workers in several museums in the
world from 1990, there are only a few female artists."
(Zunaeva and Cika, 2018). Globally, the percentage
of female art workers is only 10%. This of course can
further spur the women's movement in convincing
themselves to jump in and work in the arts. This is
done to change the opinion that works of art are not
only produced by men but also by women, although
there are still some parts of the area where art workers
are dominated by men.
As a positive impact of the emancipation
movement of Indonesian women, there are many
works of art in Indonesia growing and developing.
We can certainly enjoy the results of these artworks
and feel their presence in various forms. These forms
include works of design, art, drawing, music, dance,
and theater. Winarno exemplified several works of
Indonesian artists, all of whom are women, from
1999-2012 (2015: 5-6). In his research, Winarno
discussed the meaning of visualizing the work of
contemporary female artists with maternal themes.
One of the results of this research suggests that there
is a picture of a woman's figure about courage
(Winarno, 2015: 8). He said that this was a new
development in the world of art. However, the results
of this work with deep meaning have not been able to
change people's thinking in general about women
according to what the artists want to convey.
In the world of cinematography, Indonesia also
knows Djenar Maesa Ayu. As a movie director, the
film, which they say “Mereka Bilang Saya Monyet”
(They Are Said I am Monkey), is sharp enough to
bring meaning to the struggle for women's
emancipation. As stated by Dayanti, this film
provides a space for real-life reality about violence
Socio-cultural Development of Female Education: Kartini Context for Female Art Students
251
against women. Not only that this film reveals a form
of women's resistance to the form of violence as a
result of patriarchal lifestyles in society (2011: 103).
This film is quite frontal telling all forms of violence
that occur in women. Not only Djenar, there are still
more female filmmakers in Indonesia who prove their
existence in art, for example Mira Lesmana, Nia
Dinata, Lola Amaria, Upi Avianto, and a number of
other popular names. It proves that female art workers
are able to express their creativity and abilities in art.
They have raised topics that of course they intend to
say, whatever, even if things related to criticism and
protest over what happened to their people.
The informants greatly appreciate the
emancipation that is driven by Kartini. Kartini
becomes the forerunner of women's struggle in any
fields so that women become 'equal' to men. Of the
twenty female informants, namely students from the
Music Department, the Faculty of Performing Arts,
Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta, it is stated that
women's emancipation can now be seen in various
fields, without exception. They stated that currently
they have the same rights in obtaining the highest
education, creativity, and producing works. There are
even two informants who said that the emancipation
brings up women to characters of having brain,
beauty, and behaviour.
In connection with the wide access for women, as
many as five informants said that there are several
jobs that are generally carried out by men, which can
also be done by women. This also leads to a word
'competition' between women and men. Gender is no
longer the only important requirement for a job. If he
is considered capable, anyone can occupy that
position. Moreover, women are also able to lead small
and large groups. Taking from the Women World
Leaders book, from 1945 to 2009, Jalalzai and Krook
said there are 71 lists of national women leaders who
had led their countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin
America and Oceania. These national leaders have
not included those who become as presidents and vice
presidents, and parliamentary leaders (2010: 7-10).
The appreciation of informants on the movement
of women's emancipation in the field of art has also
already proven by one example in music. An
informant stated that the appreciation of female art
workers in Indonesia was clearly seen when there was
a music concert for the three famous songwriters in
Indonesia. This big event was successfully facilitated
by Erwin Gutawa, one of the great composers in
Indonesia. The appreciation concert was dedicated to
Melly Goeslaw, Dewiq, and Dewi 'Dee' Lestari as
Indonesian composers. This ‘Salute Concert’ proved
the existing great names and creativity of female
composers, which in fact they are the art workers in
the field of music.
2.4 Art Education for Millennial
Female Art Students
According to Wilkinson (2011: 35), today’s
generation of traditional-age college students,
referred to as the Millennial generation (1980-
present), is very different from past generations.
These individuals (hereafter referred to as
“Millennials”) have life experiences and values
unlike individuals from previous generations. The
Millenials are somewhat accommodated by modern
technology for today the internet and digital
technology are seemingly bringing up the Millenials
to more technological active users. It is also accessed
by female art students who are also in actively contact
with updated technology. As Howe mentioned in
Wilkinson (2011: 35) the characteristics of the
Millennial generation have been organized under
seven categories, namely Technology-savvy,
Conventional, Special, Sheltered, Confident,
Achieving, Pressured, and Team-Oriented, these are
also the essential points to understand any tendency
on what female art students have been through for
their socio-cultural development. The basic
understanding of female education proposed by
Kartini become the intersection for millennial female
art students to be more adaptive in utilizing modern
technology.
In expressing artistic works today, a few
millennial female students have been able to prove
themselves for any opportunities to speak out their
interests and existence more artfully. In art colleges,
art education accommodates them with self-
competence. Based on the European Commission,
there are several competencies that must be possessed
by art students, namely interpersonal competence,
cross-cultural understanding and social as well as
civil competency, and cultural competency. This is
supported by Halstead in Butova et al (2015: 214)
who stated that the competencies are the results of
education and thus shall be formulated with every
student, penetrate into all subjects, saturate all levels
of education and developed at a high level. Herewith
key competencies are not a separate part of the
academic schedule but shall be integrated into the
content thereof. From some of these competencies,
the social competency plays an important role in
increasing self-ability which is integrated in the
strength of character. It ensures survival of a human
in new social and economic environment, success of
his/her professional activity, diversifies possibilities
ICONARTIES 2019 - 1st International Conference on Interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities
252
for spiritual and material needs development, and
forms young people’s personal responsibility for own
well-being and well-being of the society (Bedenko in
Butova et.al., 2015:215). He said that the creative
mind is formed in acts of the art on the basis of
perceiving imitation of artistic language, artistic
culture as well as all other valuable and conceptual
(ethical, political, religious, etc.) components of the
worldview by psychological mechanisms.
Millennial female students do not have to be left
behind from male students in accessing education and
work. Several classes in the Music Department have
provided a place and opportunity for students to set
up active learning where this is in accordance with the
basic nature of millennials to be able to actively
access technology. Lecturers play the important role
for female students to develop their potential skills by
accessing technology to work. Millennials reared on
rapidly evolving technologies demonstrate decreased
tolerance for lecture-style dissemination of course
information. Therefore, incorporation of active
learning strategies into the classroom is critical in
order to reach millennial students (Prensky in Roehl,
et.al., 2013: 44). It can lead to more active and
meaningful learning experiences for female students
as they are freely their existence in class as well as in
real art world in this digital era.
Based on the class observation done by the
researchers, millennial female students at Institut Seni
Indonesia Yogyakarta have actively utilized
technology in learning activities as well as creating
their works of art. Meanwhile, they also rely on the
digital application as media to develop and express
their art competency, such as i-tunes, google,
YouTube, and so on. Besides having these media to
share their actual works of art, the students apply
some online sources to support independent learning
activities. The existence of Youtube also provides a
more tangible experience for female art students in
which they can obtain visualization that is
significantly related to playing musical instruments,
managing a performance or art exhibition. The
tendency to use internet products in supporting the
independent learning process needs to be supported
by the introduction of databases and portals of
scientific information sources. Therefore, the female
art students are also challenged by the necessary
needs to the enhancement of technology as a part of
their socio-cultural development as well as to the
development of digital world for their own self-
development.
3 CONCLUSIONS
The women’s emancipation expands in various fields
without exception, and is as the fruit of Kartini's
movement in Indonesia. Struggling throughout the
very basic understanding on women’s emancipation
produces excellent results for the movement of any
creativity and art expression for women, whoever it
is. In supporting this movement, art education for
female art students is expected to be able to show the
socio-cultural development for female education in
Indonesia in which now women equal to men. So that
art education for female students in the millennial era
should be much better compared to the era when
Kartini encountered the educational issues. Kartini’s
influences on women’s emancipation are very
meaningful for the movement of socio-cultural
development, particularly for female art students who
receive more access on developing themselves easily.
It is understood that the enhancement of modern
technology and the characteristics of Milleanials are
in line with the existence of female art students
nowadays to be a part of socio-cultural development.
