In the beginning of 2012 i realize that all this time the figure of
alien was always appear on some of my work, i remember mid-2011 i plan
to make an alien costume for "sehari boleh gila" day at PPS ISI
Yogyakarta,
but ultimately failed because I was too idealistic, I tried to sew it
by my own and it doesn't fit me so i wear santa claus costume, and i
remember that on the period of cultural confusion i create one painting
that describe a metamorphosis of Javanese woman into modern woman into
alien, to be honest i don't like the visual result but i like the way i
explain myself through this figure. And i remember one night on 1985 on
petukangan, Jakarta Selatan when i was a child me and my sister saw
something amazing in front of our yard, we saw two small robots with
colorful blinking lights outside of our window and we still remember it
untill now. Some people say that we were dreaming, we were imagining too
much, but what we see is what we believe. Well i don't want to force
people with what we believe, what i know since that time the figure of
alien and ufo became important to us and it inspire me in many of my
work. not in the context alien as an alien but it more personal. i
choose alien as my cultural identity conflict as an urban people. i
don't know why i feel free to express myself with this figure, i feel it
so me and i don't care anymore if people thinks i'm crazy or
delusional, the
most important thing is that i become more honest with my work. i
become more playful, i just want people to enjoy my work with any
interpretation they can think of. So here i am standing on my
extraordinary territory, extraterrestrial. that's all for now.. to be continued..
