A Sawidji Collaboration
"This is not a story about a boy and a girl.. Our portrait story is one of all of us. Each portrait takes us through a transformation. Transformations that are connected and represents a collective reality that we face as a traditional community."
A mixed photography and multi media presentation exploring social and cultural identity and its changes. Through a symbolic portrait narrative. By Dewi Dian Reich, ManButur Suantara, Ketut Kaprus Jaya.
In the purity of arts’ expressions, it is needed now even more desperately than before, to serve as a bridge. A bridge to connect people, connect minds as well as to touch hearts. Providing a catalyst. Even perhaps like a conduit that may lead people to raise important questions. To inspire learning and better understanding. Not only for ourselves. But to a wider community as well as the environment in which we live and receive Natures’ many gifts.
On this note Sawidji Artists invite you to join us, on this day of Independence 17th August, for the online version of our exhibition ‘Red Chair and the White Room’. An exploration of changes social behaviours and its potential impact on cultural identity. Through symbolic representation via a portrait narrative. The Online Exhibition is available below in both English and Bahasa Indonesia.
