Dik symbol of the earth rotates to the left, and Widik symbol of the sky rotates to the right, its function is to maintain the balance of the world. The phenomenon is that the Balinese people make kelakat very skilled, but its value and meaning are not yet known. To prove cultural values ??in the concept of kelakat, it is necessary to research, philosophical theory, using qualitative descriptive methods, towards the formation of the character of the artist and the concept of creating works of art.
