“VISTO” by Lovis Ostenrik
PHOTO EXHIBITION celebrating HUMAN VITALITY through crafted moments of BODY, LIGHT & SHADOW
visto – body, light & shadow – 25 digital prints on canvas by artistic photographer Lovis Ostenrik
Curated by Kadek Krishna Adidharma
**********
The body has its own language. It requires no arrangement of words to communicate. Born as a husk devoid of assigned meaning, a shell allowing the soul to be present in this universe of action and reaction, the body is a starting point: the blank canvas of human expression.
At a time when the contemporary life of Indonesia tends to invalidate the physical aspects of humanity, it is important to welcome the presence of young artists such as Lovis Ostenrik who explores the various possibilities of the body’s expression.
Lovis’ exploration began with the dynamic movement of a dancer’s body jumping in mid-air. From among hundreds of jumps, a number of surprising moments have been captured, especially when the shadows begin to tell other stories.
“VISTO” is an array of moments crafted and created by Lovis Ostenrik from body and light. While the works in his first solo exhibition titled faces

The first word in the title is a play of words. The term Fools’lore does not exist in the English vocabulary as a single or hyphenated word. Here, it is introduced as a parody of Folklore. The understanding of ‘fool’ here finds its equivalent in the Bahasa Indonesia concept of pandir: stupid, idiotic, humorous, but not without charm. Fools’lore is an epic created by Indieguerillas.
The storylines of fools’lore were born from the artists’ experiences in engaging folklore. Indieguerillas took it as their mission to re-load various traditional folk tales into the contemporary art scene. This intentional reload process is aimed towards unpredictable effects and sensations. These results are achieved through combining signs, compositions, characterization of figures created (or re-created). It is not only done in a single media, but also intermedia. Through this reload process, they grasp an opportunity to present their versions of history. Their attitude is staunch: they refuse to be dictated by history while at the same time responding to and thriving within the popular culture that upholds temporal appearances. In many ways, this fools’lore project is subversive.
As if anxious of the insecurities and uncertainties of life’s impermanency, people seek principles to hold on to. One of their choices is to believe in mythologies. Disregarding authenticity and accuracy of a myth, folk tales are considered reliable by many as guidance for daily life, even among modern society. Myth blends itself into daily activities. Like a mirror, in myth we often find a semblance of precision, compatibility, and similarity between our characters and those in the traditional shadow puppet stories. As the industry of popular-culture grows, heritage such as traditional shadow puppetry is pushed aside, diminishing in popularity. Many folk tales are in danger of dying. They lay asunder, often neglected between a waning past and the people’s pressing needs for signs that hold the promise of fresh forms.
Embroidery and manga are an unlikely match, but in Kirsty Ludbrook’s large-scale silk artworks, the painstaking technique is used to preserve the fleeting moment they depict.
Intricately hand-stitched, the embroideries are appliquéd into graphic compositions that each describe a single, reflective instant. Paintings on the same scale investigate different sensations of the moment, as Ludbrook manipulates paint to explore motion. Together the series of ‘storyboard’ frames build a sense of repetitive motion around the exhibition space.
Interested in the ways we attain knowledge of ourselves, Ludbrook here explores the simple moments of reflection in which understanding comes to us. ‘The Frames in Between’ – the undrawn frames in a storyboard – are those she believes are the most significant in the pursuit of self-knowledge.

Bangsa Khazar adalah metafora untuk sekelompok kecil manusia yang bertahan di antara kekuatan-kekuatan adidaya dan agama-agama besar. Pada akhir abad kesepuluh, bangsa ini hilang dari peta kebudayaan dunia. Masih banyak hal belum diketahui tentang bangsa ini.
Novel ini menjajaki dan menyingkap Polemik Khazar secara cerdas dan jenaka. Kamus Khazar menyajikan perpaduan yang menarik antara fiksi dan nonfiksi. Pembaca akan disuguhi berjibun anekdot khas cerita rakyat. Continue Reading →
Namun, novel ini berformat kamus mirip ensiklopedia mungil yang menggabungkan referensi silang dari tiga agama (Kristen, Islam, dan Yahudi). Layaknya membuka kamus, pembaca dapat memulai dari bagian mana saja—”Kitab Merah” untuk sumber Kristen, “Kitab Hijau” untuk sumber Islam, dan “Kitab Kuning” untuk sumber Yahudi—bukan melulu dari depan ke belakang.
