CYRIL KONGO (b. 1969, Toulouse, France). He started doing graffiti as an urban street artist in 1986. In the early years of his practice, he was a solely street artist; he produced large frescoes, whether on walls or other urban constructs, throughout the world. These artworks, which unfortunately can now only be found in photos and film, gained him recognition on the international stage. His twenty years of experience in the French Graffiti scene as a member of the MAC CREW collective allowed him to hone his mastery in this discipline and earned him the title as one of the early representatives of the world’s Graffiti scene; introducing graffiti as a genre.

Kongo’s works gained international recognition from the many national and international festivals he participated in. He held numerous solo exhibitions, and his art was also featured in several gallery exhibitions. Most of his works are now part of exclusive private collections. Cyril Kongo has worked with D Gallerie since 2013, where he held his Solo exhibition A stroll in Paris with Kongo. In 2019, Kongo launched his solo show Les Ephémères de Cyril Kongo (Kongo’s Studio) in Jakarta with D Gallerie. Being recognized as a world-acclaimed artist, prestige brands began to commission Kongo for the creation of luxury goods. Some of his notable collaborations include a silk scarf (a carré) with Hermès in 2011, the RM 68-01 TOURBILLON CYRIL KONGO watch with Richard Mille, and a pâte de Verre spraypaint can with crystal manufacturer Daum in 2016. In 2018, Kongo had a collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld for the 2018 Chanel Métier d’Art collection shown in New York.

DIDIN JIROT'S (b. 1998, Indonesia) artistic practice draws from daily observations and Balinese tradition where he transposes them into contemporary imagery. His body of works that often employ the use of resin, automotive paint and varying strains of metal, are for him tools that help in his communication of aspects of things that are metaphorical; and his practice, a ritualistic procession of self-introspection in navigating faith and spirituality. For him the artwork is a thought actualisation, as something absolute and not to be doubted.

IABADIOU PIKO is an artist based on Yogyakarta. Through his abstract expression, Piko analyzes and outlines perceptual experiences. With patterns of intuition and free association, he marks psychological and philosophical behavior that alters one’s feelings and character. His process of experimentation allowed him to better understand the concepts of time, circumstance, and space. Piko’s works mainly revolve around both material and color exploration. Releasing his inner child is a part of Piko’s artistic process; freedom, flow, and spontaneity when scribbling, piling, blocking, and mixing different materials.

He observes his works just like when he introspects himself. He repeats this process until he feels satisfied with his work.

Piko’s works are spontaneous-with no prior planning. There is an element of surprise that comes with this working process. As he refines his work, he creates markings based on fragments of reality, memories, imagination, atmosphere, and familiar settings as a method of synthesizing ideas, feelings, distortion, and projection from the soul. Pico’s works are a visual journey that investigates the momentum of aesthetic nature and mentality with human relationships and their society. He explores complex emotions such as tension, fear, fragility, loneliness, anger, happiness, sadness, wildness, mysteriousness, destruction, badness, addiction, and silent death.

MOCHTAR SARMAN received his Industrial Design degree from Pasadena Art Center College of Design and worked in Disney for more than 21 years. His trademark industrial strokes and the selection of animated and popular icons as a subject of his work derives from his professional design background. His use of bold colors, simple message, and often playful composition invite us to celebrate our childhood fantasy and pleasant memories.

Mochtar is recognized as an artist who breaks the mold of traditional art techniques, transcending to more futuristic approaches in art. He is known to be the first artist in Indonesia to apply the Chomadepth method in his paintings, which evokes an element of surprise to his works. Mochtar’s works are not limited to 2D surfaces but also on 3D objects such as sculptures, packaging boxes, sneakers, and mobile phones. He also experiments and applies Augmented Reality technology on some of his paintings, which again, made him the first artist in Indonesia to explore such technology. He combines his futuristic style with the depth of space and the motion in his works.

NUNUNG W.S. (ID, B. 1948) is an abstract artist with a career spanning over half a century. Despite receiving family pressure to study religion, her passion for the arts appeared at an early stage. In particular, she was inspired by Kartika Affandi, the artist daughter of Kusuma Affandi, who served as a role model that women too could succeed in art. Under the guidance of Nashar, Nunung transitioned from the dynamic expressionism of Kartika and her father to more reflective studies, juxtaposing planes of color that are both meditative and jewel-like. She is a masterful and subtle colorist, using luminous hues to create artwork that stimulates and mirrors the subconscious’s dreams and emotions. Their beauty and power quickly earned her acclaim, as well as national and international group and solo exhibitions.

Nunung has been active in the Indonesian art scene and has held exhibitions since the 1970s, in Indonesia and overseas.

She chose to pursue abstraction because she wants to invite her observers to not only enjoy her work visually but also to understand what goes on during the process of creating her masterpieces. ---

WAYAN YUSA DIRGANTARA was born and raised in Bali then studied at ISI Yogyakarta and graduated in 2021. The panorama of the beach with white sand and beautiful limestone cliffs became the initial attraction of Yusa's works, coastal activities and childhood memories play an important role in the process of creation. Environmental issues are also addressed by Yusa in her works.

As a migrant living in Yogyakarta, Yusa releases her longing for the coast, recalling simple fragments that pop into her head and rearranging them onto the canvas. Memories are certainly not perfect, there are sides that are blurred when recalled, therefore abstraction becomes the most appropriate language to express that feeling. The emergence of fragments in the form of colors, textures and textures represent the longing for the beach panorama. In her work, Yusa will continue to reflect on nature.

Yusa actively exhibits in Bali, Yogyakarta, Jakarta and South Korea. Her first solo exhibition titled My Space was held in 2020. Her next solo exhibition was held at Artotel Thamrin, Jakarta and at Space 1326 Gallery, Seoul, South Korea in 2022.

Followed by a solo presentation at TIAF (Tamra International Art Fair), Jeju, South Korea. Yusa was also a finalist of the UOB Painting of the Year in 2021.
