The transformation of the Indonesian Institute of the Arts Denpasar into the Indonesian Institute of the Arts Bali (ISI Bali) has entered a phase of institutional identity consolidation. Through the Pangurip Tri Angga event entitled “Charma–Samasta–Chandika,” held on Wednesday (31 December) on campus, ISI Bali officially inaugurated its Emblem, Hymn, and March as representations of the renewed institutional character and spirit of Bali’s state higher education institution in the arts.
In his address, the Rector of ISI Bali, Prof. Dr. Wayan ‘Kun’ Adnyana, stated that 2025 marks a significant historical milestone for ISI Bali. Following the institutional transformation from ISI Denpasar to ISI Bali and the promulgation of the Minister of Higher Education, Science, and Technology Regulation Number 28 of 2025 concerning the Organization and Governance of ISI Bali, this transformation was further completed by the issuance of Regulation Number 50 of 2025 on the Statute of the Indonesian Institute of the Arts Bali, enacted on 24 December 2025.
Prof. Kun Adnyana explained that the ISI Bali Statute serves as a fundamental legal foundation that formally establishes the Emblem, Hymn, and March of ISI Bali as the Tri Angga—three noble institutional attributes that simultaneously embody the spirit of ISI Bali. “Today marks the moment for us to cultivate the Pangurip Tri Angga of ISI Bali. These three markers signify the authenticity of human character, illuminate the guiding lantern of ideas, creativity, and artistic works, and represent the enduring dedication to the Tridharma across generations,” stated the Professor of Art History.

The Nretya or Nritya Siwa Nataraja emblem constitutes an enduring symbol that has been attached to ISI Bali since its earliest institutional form as ASTI Denpasar. The visual form of the emblem has been transformed through a contemporary artistic and stylistic reinterpretation that embodies the core values of ISI Bali. The authenticity of ISI Bali’s values, along with the lived experience and deep reverence for the institution, forms the foundational rhyme and poetic expression of the grandeur of the ISI Bali Hymn. Meanwhile, the nobility of Indonesian values resonates powerfully in the ISI Bali March.
Beyond the reinforcement of institutional identity, the Rector also presented ISI Bali’s strategic achievements throughout 2025. ISI Bali attained the status of Superior Accreditation (Akreditasi Unggul) from the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education (BAN-PT), as well as Superior Accreditation for the Master’s Program in Design and the Doctoral Program in Arts. These accomplishments were further strengthened by ISI Bali’s success in receiving three Diktisaintek Awards 2025, namely: Gold Winner for Industry Collaboration, Silver Winner for the Integrated Service Unit, and Bronze Winner for International Collaboration.
The Pangurip Tri Angga event was attended by various key stakeholders. The Governor of Bali was represented by the Head of the Bali Provincial Office of Culture, Dr. I Gede Arya Sugiartha. The event was also attended by members of the ISI Bali Board of Trustees, the Chair and members of the ISI Bali Senate, Vice Rectors, Deans, heads of work units, faculty members and administrative staff, the Chair and members of the Dharma Wanita Persatuan (DWP) ISI Bali, members of the press, artists, cultural figures, community leaders, strategic partners, and the entire academic community of ISI Bali.
Representing the Governor of Bali, Prof. Dr. Gede Arya Sugiartha, in his remarks, emphasized that the launch of the ISI Bali Tri Angga transcended the mere introduction of institutional symbols. According to him, Pangurip Tri Angga constitutes a significant milestone in strengthening Bali’s cultural identity as a resilient and culturally rooted island.
“Tri Angga of ISI Bali is part of the broader effort to safeguard Bali as an enduring, cultured, and distinctive island. It does not belong solely to the institution, but also represents the cultural values of Bali,” he stated.
Prof. Arya further expressed his highest appreciation to ISI Bali for the implementation of Pangurip Tri Angga. He expressed hope that the Emblem, Hymn, and March of ISI Bali would continually serve as sources of inspiration, reinforce collective identity, and support the representation of Balinese cultural identity at both national and global levels.
As part of the event series, ISI Bali also designated 2026 as the Year of the Art–Design Collection Movement, and conferred the Sewaka Nata Kerthi Nugraha Award 2025 upon three master artists—Dra. I G.A. Susilawati (Balinese Dance Artist), I Made Sukanta Wahyu (Sculptor), and I Nyoman Subrata (Drama Gong Artist)—in recognition of their dedication and lifelong contributions to the elevation of art and culture.
