me and collage: thank you, Rosemary!

I have been really really lucky in doing paper swap
with some collage artist in etsy, including this one
of course. Rosemary found my shop one day and
after she contacted me for a purchase order I said
that I would love to do a paper swap with her and
she said yes. And now from one envelope of paperie
that she sent me, I have made this piece. Rosemary
thank you so so much! So glad we met through etsy!
Oh available at my etsy as art print and mouse pad:)

Kolase yang saya buat dari kertas yang dikirimkan
Rosemary kepada saya. Kami bertemu di etsy dan
setuju untuk saling mengirimkan kertas-kertas dengan
tema dan warna yang kami sukai. Bagus sekali sebagai
art print dan mouse pad, tersedia disini tentunya:)

me and thrift finds: lithograph posters

I have been really really lucky to be given these posters
as a gift and apart from these two series there are more
of them with much more beautiful pictures that I will share
with you later. They all Lithography posters from the 1800's
and I certainly wish you can see them in person. They all
just stunning!

Saya beruntung sekali mendapatkan poster-poster Litografi
ini sebagai hadiah beberapa minggu lalu. Dan ini hanyalah
beberapa dari poster Litografi yang saya dapatkan dalam
beberapa minggu terakhir ini. Tentu saja saya tidak sabar
untuk segera memperlihatkan poster-poster lainnya!
Tunggu ya:)

me and friends : they live in this chaotic yet pretty space

There is this one space in Jakarta that everytime I come
there I will always find tons of things to take pictures of
and they all turned out just so much fun and colourful!
There live my talented friends where we used to make
and do stuff together and this year they will celebrate
their 10th year anniversary! Congrats guys!

Ruang Rupa adalah salah satu tempat di Jakarta yang
menurut saya setiap kali saya memotret disana hasilnya
pasti akan selalu tidak biasa. Dan tahun ini mereka akan
merayakan ulang tahunnya yang ke 10! Selamat teman-teman!

me and collages: two latest pieces for an old series

Two small originals made of Ubud handmade recycle paper
as a part of my Recycle Paperie Series. The first one is a
collaboration with Cecillia i made a couple of weeks ago.
I think I should turn that into a huge poster for my studio:)
And they available at my etsy soon. Yay!

me and bazaar : J Town Creative Junction

Last weekend, I have been invited to join Kamar  in
this monthly bazaar inside a mall called J Town Creative
Junction. We have been really lucky to be placed next
to this awesome shop by these two guys that made bow
ties and scarfs from stripes and batik fabrics!
I have also sold one original with coffee cup as the main
visual, having an awesome collaboration with Cecilia
and of course having a workshop last Sunday together
with my friends. Sure love bazaar like this!

Akhir pekan lalu saya diundang Kamar untuk ikut
J Town Creative Junction di Gandaria City.
Saya beruntung sekali karena lokasi stand kami
bersebrangan dengan Rocinc, dua cowok seru dan
kreatif yang membuat dasi kupu kupu, scarf dan
kaos garis-garis. Di meja mereka juga penuh dengan
mainan kaleng, barang-barang vintage dan topi-topi
keren! Saya sempat berkolaborasi dengan Cecilia
juga menjual sebuah karya original saya selama acara
ini. Workshop di hari terakhir pun tak ketinggalan
tentunya! Yay! Terimakasih banyak, Kamar!

me and exhibition: The Napkin Boys!

I have been really really lucky to be able to catch

this exhibition as a part of Q Film Festival this year.

Not only because I never thought I will finally able

to see a papercut art in person but this one is such

an amazingly cool solo exhibition too! The artist,

Carlos Franklin, made like 25 pieces of papercut

in a variety of colours featuring all the boys that 

I think he met in his life. Ain't that just awesome?

Saya sangat beruntung karena sempat melihat

pameran papercut Carlos Franklin di Jakarta

sebagai bagian dari Q Film Festival tahun ini.

Tidak hanya karena saya selalu penasaran

dengan yang namanya papercut tapi pameran ini

juga sangat teramatlah menakjubkan bagusnya!

Trade Thursday: thespottedfox

This is like a really cool art swap this month! After being
featured by thespottedfox in their neat blog and how
awesome it was to be put together with AshleyG and
Matt Cipov, I offer them if they'd like to do an art
swap with me since I fall in love with that Bear art print.
And they said Yes! Wooohoo!

Saya terkejut sekaligus senang waktu suatu hari dikontak
karena ditampilkan di thespottedfox blog  bersama dengan
artis-artis etsy favorit saya seperti AshleyG dan Matt Cipov!
Di toko mereka saya melihat art print beruang yang keren
sekali itu dan waktu saya menawarkan untuk barter,
mereka bilang dengan senang hati! Yay!

me and my etsy: the first A3 art print!

This piece were made out of my paper swap that I do
with another etsian with the theme our favorite colour.
It called Red Is RaD, ladies and gentlemen!

me and exhibition: Q Film Fest 2010!

I have always been passionate on LGBT issues since I was
in junior high therefore I am so excited that this year apart
from the previous years where I've been volunteering and
involve in other forms of this event, I can join the exhibition!
The theme this year is top bottom and how we perceive that
term personally as an artist.

Top Bottom adalah sebuah istilah dalam hubungan seksual
pasangan sesama jenis, yang sekaligus menjadi tema
Q Film Fest tahun ini. Saya sudah pernah ikut terlibat
dalam acara ini beberapa tahun lalu, namun baru tahun ini
saya ikut dalam pamerannya karenanya saya senang sekali!
Ditunggu kedatangannya, teman-teman!

A Sweet Sunny Sunday

Today is my last day at my parent's house after Thursday where

we celebrate Eid Mubarak together. I spent today just hang out

at my youngest room while updating my shop. Here's a couple of

artsy stuff she made and did to her room and also a sneak peek

to some new stuff that I have made for my etsy shop! 

And my mom's gave me those pretty fabrics from her piles!

What a Sunday! And  I hope yours also a splendid one!

Ini hari terakhir saya di rumah ibu setelah merayakan Lebaran

sejak hari Kamis, seharian ini saya hanya berada di kamar

adik saya sambil mengupdate etsy saya dan memotret hal-hal

menarik yang ada di dalam kamarnya. Ibu saya sedang belajar

patchwork menghibahkan beberapa kainnya yang lucu lucu.

Dan dua foto terakhir adalah produk terbaru dari kolase saya 

yang akan saya jual mulai minggu depan. Tunggu ya!

me at their shop: omuniuum

These are some of my cards that available at Omuniuum
at the moment. This small shop of reading and listening
located in Bandung, this cool and creative city just two
and half hours drive from Jakarta. Apart of these cards,
I am also selling my art prints and originals there starting
last week. Will update you more on what makes Omuniuum
just a perfect spot for my stuff.

Untuk yang tinggal di Bandung, kartu-kartu kolase saya
ada di Omuniuum  dan ini beberapa yang stoknya masih
ada disana. Selain kartu, saya juga menjual art print dan
rencananya beberapa kolase original saya. Nanti saya
akan bercerita lebih banyak tentang Omuniuum sendiri
sebagai sebuah tempat yang memikat untuk saya.
Tunggu ya!:)

Oh thank you, Feransis, for all these pretty pictures.

Sunny Sunday

These pictures were taken from one of my inspiring friend, Alexandra.
She lives with her two sons and her husband at this small and creative
house where she always prefer to recycle stuff and redecorate once in
a while. She has some of my originals at her house that I have been
feature here before too.Thanks much, Alex! So glad we're friends!

Ini foto-foto dari rumah salah seorang teman yang sangat inspiring,
namanya Alexandra. Dia tinggal bersama dua orang anak lelaki dan
suaminya di sebuah rumah mungil yang keren di Tebet. Alexandra
selalu berusaha mendaur ulang semuanya di dalam rumahnya dan
dia juga memiliki beberapa karya original di rumahnya. Alexandra,
senang sekali kita berteman baik! 

me and collage : a new piece! yay!

This piece is for a friend's online music magazine.
They started it as a free printed newsletter and
consider really essensial reading for those that
loves alternative and independent music in Indonesia.
And I'm so happy to know that they love it
and might even turn this into a mug too! Yay!

Kolase ini dibuat atas permintaan dua orang
teman yang memiliki sebuah majalah musik
online di Jakarta. Mereka mengawalinya dengan
membuat newsletter musik gratisan dan sekarang
sudah sangat diperhitungkan keberadaannya.
Saya senang sekali ternyata mereka menyukainya
dan konon kabarnya mau dibuat menjadi mug juga!

Trade Thursday : niminami

I honestly thinks that there is not enough Indonesian
artists that sells their stuff in etsy , therefore imagined
how excited I was to find Noemi's shop one day and
we quickly convos each other and promised to meet
up sometime soon. Aren't all these just so so pretty?
Thanks much for trading with me, Noemi! Let's
try again to meet up:)

Saya senang sekali waktu suatu hari mendapat sms dari
Noemi setelah sebelumnya melihat tokonya di etsy dan
tentu saja langsung jatuh cinta dengan gaya ilustrasinya
yang feminin, lembut dan playful. Karenanya kemudian
kami setuju untuk barter karya dan berjanji untuk bisa
segera ketemuan walaupun belum sempat juga :)
