Abstract

People use verbal and non-verbal language as semiotic resources in conveying meaning. Multimodal analysis with a social semiotic approach provides a way to discuss how verbal and non-verbal language work together to represent things and how they have its own role and function in a text. This study aims to find out how the process of sign-making of songket weaving activities in Balinese language, art and culture. The data of this study are a spoken discourse from a Balinese weaver and Tenun dance. Theories of Systemic Functional Linguistics by Halliday (1994) and Visual Grammar by Kress and van Leeuwen (2006) were used. Based on the transitivity system analysis, the spoken discourse has clauses that shows terms related to Balinese songket weaving activities. From these clauses, material and relational process are the most dominant processes. Based on the representational meaning analysis, Tenun dance has narrative process of action as the most dominant process. Furthermore, the semiotic resources of these works are associated with social semiotics and show that both works have signs that represent Balinese weaver’s activities. The representation is then connected with the interview to found its value and meaning in Balinese songket weaving culture.
