العنوانPublic & Private: Ibu Marsini
المنشيءSamantha Tio, Budi Agung Kuswara
الوصفThe artwork is from Malam Di Jari Kita (The Wax On Our Fingers), a series arising from the collaborative efforts of Singapore photographer Samantha Tio (Mintio), Indonesian artist Budi Agung Kuswara (Kabul) and the batik makers of the Sido Luhur group from the village of Kebon Indah in Central Java. The series consists of nine artworks - four individual pieces, three diptych, a triptych and a quadtych - which combine the traditional art of batik with contemporary photography. The ladies featured are the batik makers who participated in the making of these works.“Ibu Sakiyem and Ibu Marsini are neighbours. The artworks portray the ladies at home and in public, during which they put on a headscarf. Ibu Sakiyem owns a piece of batik cloth which she had made and used as her wedding attire. Ibu Marsini has a daughter who was also making batik but moved to Jakarta after she was offered a job at an office.”
