so i bought a book called "Drawing Lovers" from Ical , a book about drawing compilation from ISI (Insitut Seni Indonesia) student. And got a cute bonus, a drawing book, but this drawing book is usually used for kindergarden kids for drawing, so the paper is only about -80gr. You can't paint with watercolour too wet, or it's gonna make a hole in the paper. Rough paper.

so i think fast, what can i do with this 20 pages of paper, so it's kinda fast drawing, fast thinking, fast writing that I done this for 4 hour. If i name this style i'll name it "Grindrawing" (lol.. from Grindcore).

the story is about choises. and yes, life is cruel.

Three Phrase of Life

Watercolor on Paper | 50x70cm | 2010

This Illustration for "Lazy Dog Jumps Over The Quick Brown Fox" Exhibition. it's an contemporary typography exhibition held last month in Smarta Gallery, Jakarta.

I've got this number, 3.

so here it is my concept of "Three Phrase of Life". as you can see there's somekind of rail, from top to under. I made this an ordinary story to this number. you know, simple is.. Born, Work, and Death. Repeat.

very simple. Everyone does. don't you boring with this phrase?lol

and here we goes the story:

Born, grow up. Walking, this kid ride his bike to a school, say bye to his mom. on his way to school.

wow, now, he's a teenage. It's his first date. But he don't forget to study, to go into college.

time move so fast, now he's graduated.Then on his way to city, find a job, get married.

Happiness time! got married, have a babies. See them grow up. Till he's very old. and come to the end of his day. Death.

end.

you are next.

Laminating Art Exhibition

so, im participating in this mini exhibition, the concept is quiet unique, all of artworks must be laminated by laminators, or any other stuff that uniting two or more material or layers together. in Indonesia lamination process often use for identity card, photo, certificate and many important stuff so they can't be damaged.

the exhibition held in Security Post, Insititut Kesenian Jakarta, friday 30th of July 2010.

in this time i'm a little bit more political , and i did it in Indonesian Languange.yihaaa!

The Curious

this is the piece i made for "Adidas Street party" last week ago (30 April 2010). Actually this is not a skateboard deck ,lol.

ah so here's my concept of this thing:

"this is about the weird birds called the murkan's they are a curious bird who always don't believe each other just like human being who never trust each other."

This bird is my other character, someday i will make a comic about the murkan. the shy bird and also afraid to get the bird he love. just wait (don't aske me when :P )

and this the display (some of them are my friends work too)
