Summary

Description
Bahasa Indonesia: Kesenian sisingaan diciptakan sekitar tahun 1840 oleh para seniman yang berasal dari daerah Ciherang, yang berjarak sekitar 5 km dari pusat kota Subang. Seni sisingaan ini dapat dikategorikan sebagai sebuah perlawanan simbolik rakyat Subang terhadap penjajah. Singa, adalah simbol dari Negara Belanda dan Inggris, dua negara yang dipandang sebagai penjajah oleh rakyat Subang pada pertengahan abad 19. Dalam pertunjukan sisingaan, ada dua boneka singa (simbol dari dua negara Eropa tersebut) yang ditunggangi dan dikendalikan oleh anak kecil (simbol rakyat Subang) yang berada di atasnya. Hal ini bermakna ejekan dan pelecehan terhadap lambang kebanggan kaum kolonialis tersebut. Demikianlah makna tersebut masih menjadi interpretasi simbol sisingaan di kalangan warga Subang hingga kini. Simbol boneka singa yang diduduki anak kecil dapat ditafsirkan sebagai cerminan budaya anti kolonialisme dalam masyarakat Subang.

This Sisingaan art can be categorized as a symbolic resistance of the Subang people against the invaders. The lion is a symbol of the Netherlands and England, two countries that were seen as colonizers by the people of Subang in the mid-19th century. In the Sisingaan show, there are two stuffed lions (symbols of the two European countries) ridden and controlled by a small child (symbol of the people). Subang) which is above it. This means ridicule and harassment of the pride symbol of the colonialists. Thus, this meaning is still the interpretation of the Sisingaan symbol among the people of Subang until now. The symbol of a stuffed lion sitting on a small child can be interpreted as a reflection of the anti-colonial culture in Subang society.
