DJ MISSIL x 707 x Paint By Number (C&C Projects)

2007-06-24T06:26:00.000-07:00

here are some photos of my artwork representing 707 (Sevenohseven) at the DJ Missil x Paint By Number night made by C&C Projects which took place at Public (sadly i couldn't attend because i was sick - read previous post,-red)

to be honest i've never heard of DJ Missil, i've been told she's from France who happens to be a graffiti artist too...but i've never heard of her maybe i've been hiding in a cage for so long..cos the only french musicians i'm currently listening to are the teenagers and the people from Ed Banger records...maybe i should expand my knowledge on the french music scene..

there are 3 other female artist doing the project, Sanchia representing WhatNot and of course DJ Missil herself

more photos at 707

Squared and Disfigured. (part five) -> In the Land of Cruellas

2007-02-21T02:23:00.000-08:00

the girls from the Squared and Disfigured Neighborhood are back, but somehow they got stuck in their parallel dreams and all of them were carried away by the giant sea shells to the Land of Cruellas. you can see the previous neighborhoods on my previous posts.

Fashion Assassins.

2007-02-12T02:02:00.000-08:00

I woke up today with a new issue of Jeune Magazine (a magazine from Bandung, Indonesia) on my doorstep. I was asked to contribute some works for this issue. One was to make an illustration for an article about fashion copycats. The other was for the "Flaunt" section, which is a one page special for Indonesian artist/photographer/designer that features their works involving fashion. yay. So i sent all my girls from the Squared and Disfigured neighborhood to rock the Jeune house this issue. Betet's and Darbotz's works are also featured in this issue. So pick up the magazines at local bookstores now and enjoy :)

all the streets today gathered on one rooftop.

2007-02-12T01:31:00.000-08:00

After being postponed for a week, finally the Sydney siders (the always friendly and lovely trio: Jule, Syd, Mirzie from Notorious Fam clothing line) with the help of some friends held the Notorious Exhibition last night. It was the launching nite for their clothing line in Jakarta, which featured works from local street artists,labels and collectives such as Darbotz, Kims, Last Supper,Footurama,etc. I was asked to contribute an artwork for this exhibition so i decided to have one my Big Eyes creatures to represent. The poster itself was called "Gun-Shy", why? just look at the poster and you'll know why. The exhibition itself was a major success and below are some of the pictures from last night.

it ain't monday yet.

2007-01-31T08:01:00.000-08:00

One of my big eyes creatures will get the chance to represent in this exhibition (flyer pictured below). come and visit. this sunday.

we share our mother's health.

2007-01-31T07:05:00.000-08:00

Big eyes don't cry.

Last Days.

2007-01-31T05:46:00.000-08:00

last days of college. last days of war. below are some pictures of my final project; a book called "Cease-fire". A tribute (not) to war. This book consists of 14 songs ; in which i made the lay out of each lyric to look like some imaginary person's daily journal and i visualized each journal with my own illustrations. Salute to pacifism.

My baby Triangles.

2006-12-17T16:49:00.000-08:00

I was really honored to be invited to exhibit my works when i didn't even join the Pre Shrunk competition (thanks to boub), along with all these amazing designers; including No Pattern, whose poster is just WOW.

Anyway, enough with the chit chats. Below are my works for the exhibition; the design of the t-shirt was inspired by Egyptian culture and the always amazing Elke Kramer, while the poster was inspired by a man's wild imagination based on a woman's point of view.

Come and Visit

2006-12-08T18:03:00.000-08:00

i made a poster and a customized t-shirt for this exhibition, please come and visit if you have the time...and thats my name on the bottom...after angela :)

Jimmy Buffalo and Loretta Catz

2006-10-27T21:05:00.000-07:00

Loretta Catz was an artist of all sorts. A piano player, a composer, a painter, just to name a few. She wore masks all the time, because she believed in inner beauty. Jimmy Buffalo was a, well, a buffalo. Together they painted the town in pastel hues for halloween, because they didn't have any other colors to choose (from).

secret personalities.

2006-10-18T18:29:00.000-07:00

some things are better to remain a secret. don't ask. just look closer and you'll know the answer.

this is the girl who played brown bunny.

this is not the beginning. (a tribute to chronicles of never)

this is an imaginary world.

this is her enemy.

phantom ladies and the light that shines.

2006-10-18T17:52:00.000-07:00

just some doodlings inspired by all things pretty.

here are the four stories:

a girl who loves her gigantic chanel brooch so much is waiting for her guy to pick her up and eat cheese fries at their favorite local diner. a broken hearted girl is standing on the street across the diner almost crying looking at the lovely couple inside. she then look at irina lazareanu's polaroid which she takes out of her moleskin notebook, her eyes green with envy, wishing she is irina. then she remembers she just bought a black chandelier on ebay last week for her mother's birthday and run straight home before the delivery arrive. some random girl with lolita-esque glasses is just looking at a stranger running pass her house and thinking "i want to be as beautiful as that girl".

You Must Be Dreaming

2006-10-18T17:35:00.000-07:00

I made a book for this exhibition "Matahari" by Pelita Harapan University (which is where i'm currently studying).. it's a book about planning your own dreams..or lucid dreaming as they say it...to be honest, most of the times i planned my own dreams (naturally) and i didn't even know there was a name for it, until i found out about it on the internet...just when i thought i had special powers..haha...it is so easy to learn, and everyone else can do it, why not share it with others?

Fembotz : One Night of The Femme Invasion.

2006-10-18T16:52:00.000-07:00

Nasta from Parc (RIP) wanted to have an "all girl" exhibition that will be held at Parc for 2 weeks (back in 2005). She asked muti (ex upstairs member, part time everything haha) and hedytia (polypony, a+ magazine) and me to make some artworks that are very femme fatale..and we had to have a name in just 2 days!so "Fembotz" was born...so here are my version of the works..if you notice both the titles are based on songs by pulp and chicks on speed, coz the lyrics pretty much tell the concept behind these works :)

misshapes

mind your own business

old and random

2006-10-18T16:21:00.000-07:00

these are just some of the works i've done in the past, i'll post the other ones later on when there's enough time. there were no concepts whatsoever when i made them.
