NARYA ABHIMATA + (Photographer Narya Abhimata – who shot our … Photographer Narya Abhimata – who shot our cover and fashion spreads this issue – is doing exactly what he wants to do, thank you very much. Interview Nigel Simmonds.Narya, we’re all interested in how you grew up and how you became a visual artist. What’s the story?I was pretty much given the freedom of expressing my artistic side from a very young age. My parents fully supported that by getting me drawing books, crayons and paints so that I would stop using their bedroom walls as my canvas. I’ve always been that weird, artistic kid … I’ve never really been into sports or super-masculine things. I played with both my Ninja Turtle figurines and my sister’s American Girls dolls. I loved custom building things with my Lego … I’ve built theme parks with fully working cable cars that take my little Lego people up and down a steep hill. I love playing video games that need me to manage cities and zoos. I guess I like things that need problem-solving skills, which contributes fully to what I am doing now. As a visual artist I have to problem-solve and to constantly think of creative ways to achieve things.When you were growing up, is this the life that you envisaged for yourself?Truthfully I cannot imagine myself doing anything other than what I’m doing now. Me as an accountant? Never in a million years.How did you find being an Indonesian in Sydney, when you studied there? Or London?I find going or living overseas very eye-opening and inspiring. For me, Indonesia is more restrictive when it comes to creative expression and freedom, especially in Jakarta. When I lived in Sydney and London, my creative mojo was constantly brewing. Ideas can be found anywhere, museums, galleries are abundant. People are strange, beautiful and unapologetic. The energy is powerful and is constantly around and it makes you want to create things every single day.Did you spend much time as an assistant, or intern? Did you learn your trade from someone awesome, and are you still in touch with them?I have never assisted, I just went out there with courage and a bit of delusion, ha ha ha! But I have interned once as a graphic designer at an agency back in Jakarta in 2008, after that I’ve been taking on the world solo. However, I believe that I am always a student, so I don’t think I will stop learning . . . it’s easier to do this nowadays since everything is basically online; seminars, tutorials . . . you name it and the internet has it. I also learn from my friends, fellow photographers and artists that I met here as well as overseas . . . and yes I am still in touch with some of them.You seem so well educated internationally, how has that journey been for you?It has been very special and I feel super grateful to have been able to do that. My view of the world as well as how I creatively approach my work were shaped during those years overseas. I learned, struggled and achieved a lot, and I wouldn’t be who I am today without those experiences.What’s most important to you today about visual imagery, and how you deal with it?Character, point of view and the ability to tell a story are very important to create any kind of visual. These are the three things I’m constantly improving with my own work.What equipment do you use?Canon 5DmkIVfor stills and Sony A7SIII / FX3 / FX60 / Arri Alexa for videos (also depends on client’s budget!)Who is the best client you ever worked for (apart from The Yak he he)?Edward Hutabarat.What does fashion mean to you?Fashion is a lifestyle choice. Most people think that fashion is just clothes, but almost all your lifestyle choices count as fashion: the way you dress, the food you eat, the devices you use daily . . . all the desirable things you choose to own and use to present yourself to the world as an individual . . . those things count as fashion!How do you stay consistently fresh with your ideas and concepts in photography and videography?I try to get outside my comfort zone. I work in fashion most of the time so I try to find inspiration and references outside of that world. Also, never stop learning new ways to give your work variety. Experiment with things you never tried before!What’s the most frequent phrase you hear from clients that pisses you off?‘Could you make (whatever I’m making for them) pop more?’How can clients be better at being clients?Knowing what they want is always a good start.Are you threatened at all about the potential of Artificial Intelligence?Not at all. No amount of technological advances can replace an artist’s soul.What makes you happy?Good food. Good company. DOGS!If you were to die tomorrow, what would be the last thought in your head?‘What’s for dinner?’Where can we meet you, or see your work?I am now residing in Bali, mostly staying at home with my two French bulldogs ordering take outs from cheap eateries around Kerobokan.

Promote domestic tourism and address infrastructure gaps + (Promote domestic tourism and address infra … Promote domestic tourism and address infrastructure gapsIn 2019, about 16 million foreign visitors came to Indonesia. The sector contributed $20 billion in foreign exchange revenue and employed about 13 million people or around 10 percent of the total workforce. The COVID-19 pandemic hit the industry hard. In the first half of 2020, arrivals to Indonesia were off by almost 60 percent, the industry is expected to lose $10 billion in foreign exchange revenues for the full year, and more than 90 percent of the workers in the sector have been furloughed indefinitely without pay.Even when the world begins recovering from the pandemic, it remains unclear how quickly travelers will be willing to jump onto planes and visit the beaches of Bali, the forests of Borneo, and other popular destinations. In addition, countries dependent on tourism will all be competing for smaller groups of travelers for a while. Recovery in the tourist sector is likely to lag behind that of others.Looking forward, we expect travelers will, at least initially, avoid in-person contact in booking, traveling, and even staying at their destinations. They will prefer shorter trips to outdoor destinations and flexible cancellation policies. In addition, those staying at hotels and other large accommodations will put a premium on visible evidence of greater cleanliness and hygiene than in the past.To help the tourist sector rebound as quickly as possible, Indonesia should focus on two crucial areas. The first is promoting domestic tourism. Evidence from many markets has shown that domestic travel has recovered more quickly than international travel, especially among young tourists who see themselves as less vulnerable. In China, for instance, domestic air travel reached 90 percent of 2019 levels by August 2020, while international travel was still lagging well behind.Unlike international tourists, who concentrate in Bali and East Nusa Tenggara, the majority of domestic tourists in Indonesia visit Java. To push rates of domestic tourism, the government and operators should promote lesser-known domestic attractions, like the Lake Toba region in North Sumatra, the Mandalika area in East Nusa Tenggara, and Likupang Beach in North Sulawesi. Discounts and other incentives could also help ignite domestic travel.The country can also use the unintended lull in visitors to beef up its tourist infrastructure. The disruption provides an opportunity, for example, to improve airports, accommodations, and other facilities. The jump in digital activity brought by the pandemic can also be used to accelerate the adoption of new technologies by operators in the sector, from online booking systems to advanced analytics that can offer real-time information on tourist activities and behaviors.ation on tourist activities and behaviors.)

He currently lives and works in Yogyakarta and Bali. As a painter, sculptor and performance artist, he is hailed as one of the most important young artists to watch out for. His canvases are highly charged with the energy, or qi, that is suggestive of Chinese calligraphy masters. While Chinese calligraphy influences his technique, his subject matter captures the essence of Balinese religious and tribal rituals. The visual impact of his canvases is explosive yet contemplative. They reflect the mutual desire for harmony in order and chaos, a oneness with the universe. Man as the centrifugal figure in paintings is distinctively Sutawijaya and continues to be prominent in his works.Putu Sutawijaya draws his inspirations from the various Balinese religious rituals. He is especially fascinated with the way communion takes place, where spiritual enlightenment is attained through trance, intoxication and even violence.Movement, energy and trance are the three most powerful stimuli in his canvases. The movements and stance of the kecak dance are symbolic of the Great Gods (sanghyang). The kecak dance is an intense spiritual dance by a large group of people.A mental and spiritual climax is reached when the soul suddenly rises to a level of experience much more profound than daily consciousness. At that moment appears a peak of self confidence and extraordinary bliss like a trance, followed by enlightenment. Out of these are born paintings of such intense expression that they reach the farthest limits of universal concepts.the farthest limits of universal concepts.)

Panglalah teknologi ring kawéntenan lapangan kerja + (Rapid technological developments have brou … Rapid technological developments have brought many advances in various areas of life, including the world of work. In the current era, we cannot be separated from the influence of technology in the world of work. The government can play an important role in overcoming this problem and creating policies that can control technological developments so that they do not replace and threaten people's jobs. The most important problem currently is technological progress which poses a major threat to employment opportunities, especially in Bali. If not controlled, many jobs will be replaced by technology. Of course, this can threaten the lives of the Balinese people. Advances in AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology are one of the biggest challenges for future leaders of Bali Province. Although the presence of AI provides benefits, especially in providing efficiency in the world of tourism in Bali, this technology can also have negative impacts if not used wisely. To overcome challenges in the tourism sector, the government must increase investment in skills training and technology education. This will help prepare the workforce to face technological developments with greater effectiveness. One of the solutions and strategies that I propose is to strengthen the government's role and responsibility in regulating and supervising the use and impact of AI technology in Bali. The government can provide assistance and facilities, such as capital assistance, subsidies, incentives, training, certification, and others, which can help the community to improve their quality and performance in the tourism sector. The government can also evaluate policies that support the transition of workers from traditional to modern sectors through skills conversion programs and financial support. Therefore, this effort can help optimize the use of technology while reducing losses for the Bali tourism sector in terms of the availability of skilled and quality human resources so that they can continue to compete along with technological developments.ete along with technological developments.)

Richard Winkler + (Richard Winkler dream of a utopian world w … Richard Winkler dream of a utopian world where man and nature were tightly integrated. and then he woke up in it.Richard, how did your upbringing influence your artistic style?During my childhood, I spent a lot of time with my grandfather, whom I admired. He was enormously talented in drawing and painting, and we spent a lot of time together. He also took me out into Nature, where we walked for hours, and he taught me everything about flora and fauna. He was a great inspiration, and he showed me how to draw and how to appreciate and love the natural world around us. During the same time, I had to spend a lot of time in hospital in order to undergo many surgeries to correct the growth of my bones, as I was suffering from a rare bone disorder. This created an early awareness of the physical body and its limbs. It was fascinating to me when the doctor measured angles and the length of my bones, and how he could open up my body to correct those after drawing lines on my limbs. In summertime, I usually spent a lot of time playing in an old garden and plant nursery near my home, forgetting all the pain I had to go through the rest of the year. I loved all the greenhouses, which were full of exotic plants and trees such as banana and orange trees. It was hot and humid, and I could smell the plants and the soil. This world was magical and full of energy and fertility. This was life, and life wanted to flourish. I often dreamt and fantasized about exotic and tropical worlds where my soul was happy and free, a kind of paradise where you picked fruits from the trees, and life was free from troubles. My early childhood drawings often depicted tropical landscapes with exotic colourful birds and animals.What was your initial impression of Bali, and how did it inspire your art?When I first landed in Bali, I discovered the world I had been dreaming about, a kind of Garden of Eden full of life and colours. The tropical nature was alive and amazing, and the soil so incredibly fertile. People were friendly, and everyone seemed to be able to talk about art and aesthetics. And everyone seemed to be creative in one form or another. Bali was full of life, colours, details, sounds, and smells. It really appealed to all my senses and made me feel incredibly alive. Even the ground was not stable and moved sometimes.I loved the passionate rains and thunderstorms, which were so intense and powerful. Life itself was at maximum in Bali, and I couldn’t feel anything but very alive. I loved it. Over time, I found lots of inspiration in the traditional life at the rice paddies, in Nature, and in markets. I love the simple life of man and nature, tightly integrated. Perhaps it’s still a dream in my mind about a Utopian world free of pain and sorrow. But it’s a beautiful dream, longing for peace and harmony in one’s soul.Can you describe your creative process and how it has evolved over time?During my time in art school, I became more and more fascinated by the human body. I spent countless hours drawing from life models to study the forms and lines of the body. I was especially fascinated by simple lines and how they cut and overlapped each other. I eventually started to play with these forms, stretching them and deconstructing them to my liking, a little bit like an orthopedic doctor rearranging the bones and limbs. The body doesn’t need to look anatomically correct to actually function and feel right. The important thing is that it feels good and works correctly. That’s how I construct the bodies on the canvas.Do you see Bali as a colourful Utopian paradise?I might dream about this Utopian paradise free of pain and sorrow and full of life, love, beauty and harmony. But of course this fantasy world doesn’t exist in reality. Wherever we live, life will always be life including everything from tears to laughter, and that’s how we grow ourselves and our characters. And maybe that is the real beauty and goal of life itself.s the real beauty and goal of life itself.)
