From traditional to contemporary Balinese arts, dance has been a medium of artistic expression that explores the daily life and cosmological ideas of gender expression in South-East Asian culture.

Using a cultural anthropological lens to study dance, students will interrogate the spectrum of gender expression in diverse Balinese communities.
