Abstract

An artistic workmanship is a creative process of the artist in creating artwork. The art work created is entitled “Be Yourself,” which is related to the establishment of self characters of the writer who grew up in Sundanese culture. However, the life journey has brought the writer to be urang sumando (people related by marriage) in Minangkabau. Being in these two different cultural positions, Sunda and Minang, the writer have cross cultural experiences. Having these cultural differences do not automatically make the writer soluble in integration in two different conceptions of cultures. In this paper, the writer offers the concepts of these cross-cultural experiences that are able to offer something different which can contribute to the development of art creation. The discussion in this article is the artistic forms as media for the exploration, materials for creation, and forms of performance. Keywords: artistic, workmanship, music, cross-culture, Sunda, Minang
