BENIH SENI YANG BARU.

Dalam kancah seni rupa kita

yang makin kompleks, Komunitas

Salihara memilih wilayah hulu. Kami

menyadari bahwa pastilah ada cara

lain untuk melengkapi pendidikan

seni rupa yang memang sudah

terbukti ampuh dalam memacu

pertumbuhan seni rupa. Yaitu

cara yang lebih langsung dalam

menjaring bakat-bakat mutakhir.

Untuk itulah kami

menyelenggarakan Kompetisi

Karya Trimatra secara tiga tahunan

sejak 2013. Dengan ini pula kami

mencari pengertian baru yang

lebih luas daripada seni patung

seraya menggarisbawahi watak

transdisipliner dari seni rupa.

Para pemenang Kompetisi yang

pertama adalah Faisal Habibi, Budi

Adi Nugroho dan Octora Chan.

Sebagaimana kita tahu, kiprah

mereka kini sangat menonjol di

kancah nasional dan internasional.

Sebagai bagian dari Kompetisi,

kami mengupayakan residensi di

luar negeri untuk para pemenang.

Kami percaya bahwa residensi

demikian adalah cara yang

sangat baik bagi seniman yang

bersangkutan untuk berkembang

lebih lanjut, mengasah diri dalam

berbagai gagasan dan bentuk

kontemporer, serta menempatkan

diri dalam pergaulan global.

Para pemenang Kompetisi

Karya Trimatra yang kedua (2016)

adalah Suryo Herlambang, Reza

Zefanya Mulia dan Ajeng Martia

Saputri. Sebagai kelanjutan dari

kemenangan itu, Suryo telah

melakukan residensi di Pickers'

Hut di Glaziers Bay (Tasmania,

Australia), adapun Reza dan Ajeng

di Tentacles Art Space (Bangkok).

Karya-karya yang sedang

anda tatap di Galeri Salihara

sekarang adalah karya-karya

yang mereka hasilkan selama

residensi tersebut dan juga

karya-karya yang kait-mengait

dengan kontribusi mereka untuk

Kompetisi Karya Trimatra.

Kami mengucapkan terima

kasih yang sebesar-besarnya

kepada Kedutaan Besar Australia

di Jakarta dan Biro Perencanaan

dan Kerjasama Luar Negeri,

Kementerian Pendidikan dan

Kebudayaan RI, dalam mendukung

residensi tersebut.

Selamat menyaksikan.

Art is a long process, connecting

components from upstream to

downstream. If the downstream

region involves the reception of art by

the masses, then the upstream region

involves the education and cultivation

of young talents. If the downstream

region is populated by art markets

and museums, then the upstream is

comprised of every effort to sow and

nurture the seeds of new art.

In our increasingly complex art

world, Komunitas Salihara has

chosen to be part of the upstream.

We believe that there is a way

to create a comprehensive art

education infrastructure that can

help accelerate the growth of art as

a whole—one of which is by directly

drawing in or attracting new and

emerging talents.

This is the rationale behind

our three-yearly Kompetisi Karya

Trimatra, which began in 2013.

Through this event, we are seeking

new and greater understanding about

three-dimensional art forms outside

of sculptures, while highlighting the

transdisciplinary character of art

itself. The inaugural competition in

2013 produced three outstanding

winners: Faisal Habibi, Budi Adi

Nugroho and Octora Chan. As we

know, they have now made a name for

themselves at home and abroad.

To augment the competition

program, we endeavor to provide

overseas residency opportunities

for the winners. We believe that such

programs are the best opportunities for

these new artists to develop further,

to immerse and refine themselves

through exposure to a variety of

contemporary forms and ideas, and to

situate themselves in a global network.

Winners of the second Competition

are Suryo Herlambang, Reza Zefanya

Mulia, and Ajeng Martia Saputri.

Following their wins, Suryo went to

complete his residency at Pickers’ Hut

at Glaziers Bay, Tasmania (Australia),

while Reza and Ajeng both went to

Tentacles Art Space (Bangkok).

Works that you will encounter at

Salihara Gallery are those created

during their respective residency

periods, alongside works that have

been created in relation to their

Competition submissions.

We convey our deepest appreciation

to the Embassy of Australia, and

Bureau of Planning and International

Cooperation at the Indonesian Ministry

of Education and Culture for their

support of these residency programs.

We wish you an enjoyable visit.

Selama dua bulan masa residensi, selain berkarya, para perupa juga

melakukan sosialisasi, survei, mengunjungi galeri, museum, komunitas,

mengadakan pameran dan agenda lainnya. Program seperti ini sebenarnya

telah dilaksanakan sejak Kompetisi Karya Trimatra Salihara pertama pada

2013, ketika itu residensi berlangsung di Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik

(ZK/U), Berlin, Jerman. Kami yakin program residensi akan menjadi katalisator

yang dapat mempercepat proses para perupa muda menuju cita-citanya.

Suryo Herlambang pemenang

pertama yang mendapat

kesempatan residensi di Tasmania,

Australia, adalah seorang arsitek

muda yang berminat pada banyak

hal. Dalam pameran ini, Suryo

mengembangkan tema “perjalanan”,

gagasan yang tumbuh dan

berkembang lebih lanjut setelah

mengikuti program residensi.

Perjalanan ke Tasmania memberi

pengalaman baru bagi Suryo,

terutama faktor-faktor sosial,

kultur, bahasa, alam, lingkungan

dan lain sebagainya yang serba

berbeda dengan Indonesia. Di dalam

kondisi itu, Suryo membayangkan

suasana asing yang dialami

Colombus dan orang-orang Eropa

pada masa lalu yang melakukan

perjalanan ke seluruh penjuru dunia.

Suryo membayangkan peristiwa

tersebut kurang lebih sama dengan

pengalaman psikologis yang ia alami

ketika menjejakkan kaki di Tasmania.

Suryo juga tertarik mengamati

perjalanan manusia masa kini.

Salah satunya adalah efek dari

perkembangan ekonomi suatu

negara sehingga memungkinkan

warganya melakukan perjalanan ke

pelbagai tempat atau lazim disebut

sebagai turis. Perpindahan manusia

dalam jumlah besar dari satu

tempat ke tempat lain, sekaligus

membawa sifat, karakter dan

perilaku dari tempat asalnya

adalah sebuah pemandangan yang

kontras. Dalam kaitan ini, Suryo

mengamati membeludaknya

turis-turis Cina ke Australia

yang membawa kebiasaan dan

perilaku mereka yang khas. Suryo

mengungkapkan fenomena itu

lewat karya The Tourist (2017). Karya berukuran 36 x 36 x 25,5

sentimeter itu menggambarkan

dua turis asal Cina yang tengah

serius mengamati sesuatu. Suryo

menangkap karakter kedua wajah

turis dalam karya itu dengan data

yang lengkap, mulai dari sepatu,

warna pakaian, model rambut,

mata hingga gerak-geriknya.

Kemampuan Suryo membangun

karakter diperlihatkan pula

pada sejumlah karya lain. Lihat

misalnya The Messengers (2017)

yang menampilkan karakter

wajah menyerupai sosok dari

suku Aborigin. Atau The Fall (2017)

karakter Homo Sapiens yang

dibuat berdasarkan kekuatan

imajinasi dan keterampilan

Suryo membentuk dan menafsir

rupa. Suryo bahkan mampu

14

membangun karakter yang

dramatik dalam Waiting (2017).

Ekspresi pasrah dan gestur pada

karya ini memperlihatkan sebuah

keterampilan yang tinggi.

Reza Zefanya Mulia dan Ajeng Martia Saputri masing-masing juara

II dan III mendapat kesempatan

residensi di Bangkok, Thailand.

Zefanya, lulusan dari bidang

pendidikan, Universitas Negeri

Jakarta (IKIP), mengajukan dua

karya konseptual. Pertama adalah

karya berdasarkan pengamatan

atas paradoks perilaku pengunjung

dan tata tertib di ruang pamer.

Konsep ini memang lebih pada

persoalan edukasi dan apresiasi

masyarakat terhadap karya seni

rupa. Pengamatan yang sejak

lama dilakukan oleh Zefanya

adalah ketika ruang pamer lebih

menjadi obyek swafoto ketimbang

apresiasi. Dalam kaitan ini, Zefanya

juga mewawancarai pihak Galeri

Nasional Indonesia yang membuat

program khusus bagaimana menjadi

apresiator yang baik.

Kedua, karya Zefanya bertolak

dari fenomena apropriasi di masa

kini, ketika masyarakat dibanjiri oleh

barang-barang dan merek-merek

yang menyiratkan status sosial

dan ekonomi. Bersamaan dengan

itu, ditengarai ada dua model

seni rupa yang hidup dalam

masyarakat. Dalam teori Sanento

Yuliman, hal itu disebut sebagai

Seni Rupa Atas dan Seni Rupa

Bawah. Seni Rupa Atas hidup

di kalangan masyarakat yang

sosial ekonominya berada di

tingkat atas dan mengkonsumsi

barang-barang berkualitas

tinggi, bermerek serta mahal.

Sebaliknya masyarakat dengan

tingkat sosial dan ekonomi bawah,

mengkonsumsi barang-barang

berkualitas rendah, tapi meniru

dan menjiplak produk atas,

sehingga seolah-olah mereka ada

di kelas yang sama.

Karya Bootlegging the Bootleg (2017) yang berupa media

campuran, benda temuan dan

benda jadi, mendapat inspirasi

dari keseharian di kota Bangkok,

tempat di mana segala merek

produk terkenal dipalsukan.

Berdasarkan pengalaman

selama di kota tersebut, Zefanya

menemukan ada apropriasi

yang berlangsung bolak-balik.

Zefanya melihat peniruan tidak

hanya dilakukan oleh mereka

15

yang berbasis seni rupa bawah,

tapi masyarakat pada level

seni rupa atas juga mengambil

idiom masyarakat bawah dan

mengembangkannya menjadi produk

yang populer di tengah masyarakat.

Sedangkan Ajeng, memaknai

perjalanan sebagai upaya negosiasi

dengan sesuatu yang asing. Sebab

bagi Ajeng, dunia di luar dirinya

adalah sebuah ancaman yang harus

ditundukkan atau setidak-tidaknya

dijinakkan. Ketika di Bangkok, Ajeng

menemukan lingkungan dan bahasa

sehari-hari yang asing dan tidak ia

mengerti. Di satu sisi, irama bahasa

dan percakapan asing itu menjadi

semacam teror sehari-hari, tapi di sisi

lain menjadi inspirasi untuk berkarya.

Ajeng menampilkan Lost in

Translation (2017), karya dari media

campuran yang dibuat ketika

residensi di Bangkok. Sementara di

Jakarta ia membuat karya 947,116,

800 Heartbeats (since 1992) (2018)

dari media campuran. Bait-bait puisi

dan pakaian transparan bersalut

resin bening adalah suasana

paradoks antara ingin membuka

diri dan benteng pertahanan diri.

Nada kurang lebih sama tampak

pada Dear God, Please Keep Me Happy

(2018) dari media campuran.

Karya ini berupa instalasi

kuda-kudaan kecil terbuat dari

kayu, ditompangi oleh sosok

yang jauh lebih besar. Sebuah

gambar gagal proporsi, janggal,

tidak pantas dan memaksa demi

sebuah penampilan. Gagasan

yang sama dengan visualisasi

berbeda tampak pada Dear

God, Please Keep Me Safe (2018),

sebuah tempat tidur bayi yang

juga tidak proporsional dengan

obyek di dalamnya.

Ketiga perupa muda dengan

karakter karya beragam ini juga

berlatar pendidikan yang berbeda:

arsitektur, grafis dan pendidikan

seni rupa. Hal ini tidak seperti

para pemenang Kompetisi Karya

Trimatra Salihara pertama pada

2013 yang melulu berasal dari

pendidikan formal seni patung.

Pameran Setelah Residensi

Trimatra ini adalah proses edukasi

dan pembinaan oleh Komunitas

Salihara bagi perupa muda

berbakat yang siap menyongsong

pergaulan lebih luas di kancah

seni rupa.

As winners of Kompetisi Karya

Trimatra Salihara 2016, Suryo

Herlambang, Reza Zefanya Mulia

and Ajeng Martia Saputri, received

residency opportunities at The

Pickers’ Hut @ Glaziers Bay, Tasmania

(Australia)—with the support of the

Embassy of Australia in Indonesia,

and at Tentacles Art Space, Bangkok

(Thailand)—with the support of

Bureau of Planning and International

Cooperation of the Indonesian

Ministry of Education and Culture.

During their two-month residency

period, in addition to creating

artworks, they found time to socialize,

survey, visit galleries, museums

and local communities, organize

exhibitions, and so forth. We have

been offering residency programs to

competition winners since the first

Kompetisi Karya Trimatra Salihara in

2013; that year, residencies were held

at Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik

(ZK/U), Berlin (Germany). We are

convinced that residencies and

similar projects can act as positive

catalysts to propel these young

artists forward as they pursue their

goals and dreams.

First-place winner Suryo

Herlambang, who went to Tasmania,

Australia for his residency, is a

young architect with wide-ranging

interests. For the current exhibition,

he has worked to expand the theme

“perjalanan” (voyages), an idea that

grew out of his residency program and

which he has continued to explore since.

His journey to Tasmania provided

him with new experiences, especially

with regards to socio-cultural factors,

language, the natural world, living

environment, etc—everything was

different. Inspired by this, Suryo began

imagining the alien environment that

Columbus, and his fellow Europeans

of ages past, might have encountered

during their travels around the world.

He imagined that they would’ve

experienced a similar psychological

experience as he did when he first

arrived in Tasmania.

Suryo also observes contemporary

human voyages. Human travel occurs

due to, among others, a country's

economic development, which enables

a country's citizens to travel to many

different places as tourists. People

traveling in great numbers, inevitably

bringing with them their inherent

nature, characters, and behaviors,

create contrasting social landscapes.

In connection to this concept, Suryo

observed a large number of Chinese

CU R ATO RIAL N OTES

20

tourists in Australia who brought

with them their distinctive habits and

behaviors. He expressed his take

of this phenomenon in The Tourist

(2017). Measuring 36 x 36 x 25.5

centimeters, it depicts two Chinese

tourists observing something with all

seriousness. Suryo's work captures

their characters completely, from

their shoes, color of their clothing,

their hairstyles, their eyes, to their

movements and gestures.

Suryo’s ability to build and

communicate a character can be seen

in his other works. The Messengers

(2017) that shows the visage of a

person of Aboriginal extraction. In The

Fall (2017) Suryo conveys the idea of

Homo sapiens, based on the strength

of his imagination and also skill in

creating and interpreting visuals/

forms. He is even able to present

such dramatic characters as the one

shown in Waiting (2017). Expressions

and gestures of ‘resignation’ is shown

clearly and skillfully, here.

Reza Zefanya Mulia and Ajeng

Martia Saputri, the second and third

winners respectively both embarked

on their residencies in Bangkok,

Thailand. Zefanya, an Art Education

graduate of State University of

Jakarta (UNJ/IKIP) put forth two

conceptual works. First, is a work

created based on his observations of

the paradox between the behaviors

of exhibition visitors and the

generally-accepted exhibition code

of conduct. The concept is certainly

based on the matter of art education

and appreciation of artworks. After

a long observation period, Zefanya

found that visitors to an exhibition

tend to treat exhibition spaces as

selfie-spaces rather than a space

for art appreciation. In connection to

this idea, he also interviewed staff

members of the National Gallery of

Indonesia for tips on how to be a good

and appreciative art audience.

His second work found its

inspiration in today's phenomena of

appropriation, as seen everywhere in

our living reality, where we are faced

with a deluge of things and brands

whose ownership or otherwise implies

a certain socio-economic status.

Alongside such a reality, there exists

two models of visual art, which Sanento

Yuliman called: High Art and Low Art.

High Art exists in a part of society that

enjoys a high socio-economic status,

who consumes branded, expensive,

high-quality goods. On the other hand,

the lower classes consume low-quality

goods that imitate and plagiarize

high-end products, so they may appear

to belong to the same class.

Bootlegging the Bootleg (2017,

mixed media, found objects and

ready-mades) is inspired by the

daily realities in Bangkok, a place

where everything from every brand

has a bootleg version. Based on his

experience, appropriation is actually

a two-way street. Imitation was not

done only by those of low-art loyalties;

21

high-art society also takes idioms

identifiable as part of the lower-

classes and develop them into trendy

or popular products.

Ajeng, meanwhile, interpret

‘journey’ as a person's attempt to

negotiate with something foreign or

alien. To Ajeng, the world outside the

Self is a challenge to be conquered

or at least managed (or subdued). In

Bangkok, she found herself entering

a foreign environment that speaks in

an equally foreign language. These

foreign rhythms and conversations,

on the one hand, felt like a daily

hurdle. On the other hand, they were

ripe creative opportunities and

sources of inspiration.

She created Lost in Translation

(2017, mixed media) during her

residency in Bangkok. In Jakarta, she

made 947,116, 800 Heartbeats (since

1992) (2018, mixed media). Poetic

stanzas and transparent clothing

coated in transparent resin present a

paradoxical atmosphere, a dilemma

between opening up oneself and

shoring up one's defenses. A similar

sense can be found in Dear God,

Please Keep Me Happy (2018, mixed

media), comprised of small wooden

horses carrying their much bigger

riders. This piece represents the

idea of failed proportions, of odd

proportions, even inappropriate or

coercive acts done in the name of

keeping up appearances. A similar

concept is presented with different

visuals, in Dear God, Please Keep Me

Safe (2018), showing a crib and a

disproportionate object inside it.

These three young artists,

with diverse artistic characters,

come from diverse education

backgrounds: architecture, graphics,

and art education respectively. In

contrast, all three winners of the

first competition in 2013 came from

a formal sculpture background. The

exhibition Setelah Residensi Trimatra

stands for Komunitas Salihara’s

contribution to the education and

nurturing of talented young artists,

so they will be better-equipped

to engage in greater and wider

associations in the art world.

C ATATA N RE SIDE N SI

Suryo Herlambang menjalani residensi

di The Pickers' Hut @ Glaziers Bay di

kota Hobart (Tasmania, Australia) yang

merupakan studio milik Matt Calvert,

seniman patung kontemporer asal Tasmania.

Pada awal residensi, ia melakukan studi

dan riset di kota Hobart dengan mengunjungi

tempat-tempat seperti Maritime Museum,

Allport Library, Contemporary Art Tasmania,

Moonah Art Centre, Colville Gallery, Bett

Gallery, Despard Gallery, University of

Tasmania dan tempat penting lainnya. Ia juga

mengunjungi studio seniman setempat yaitu

Michael Schlitz dan Studio Zsolt Faludi.

Proses berikutnya, selain mengobservasi

proses berkarya Matt Calvert, ia

mulai membuat sketsa-sketsa ide dan

kemungkinan untuk berkarya. Ia juga

mencari material baru dan bereksperimen

dengan bahan-bahan yang ada.

Dengan material hasil studi dan

eksplorasi tersebut, ia memutuskan untuk

menggunakan material Oven Baked Clay

dan menentukan sebuah tema yaitu The

Voyagers. Proses berkarya berlanjut

selama empat pekan dan berujung pada

sebuah pameran yang diselenggarakan di

Schmorgasbaag, Murray Street Hobart.

Pameran yang berlangsung selama tujuh

hari (02-09 Juni 2017) tersebut dibuka

dengan artist talk dan penampilan musik oleh

musisi setempat yaitu Tim Panaretos dan

Strangerstill.

Pekan terakhir berada Australia, ia

sempatkan untuk mengunjungi wilayah alam

di kota Tasmania. Ia juga menyempatkan diri

mengobservasi kesenian dan budaya di kota

Melbourne.

lapangan dan survei lingkungan di dalam

studio dan di sekitar kota Bangkok. Dalam

proses ini, kedua seniman dibantu oleh

asisten dari pihak Tentacles Art Space.

Kemudian proses residensi dilanjutkan

dengan tur lokal dan kunjungan studio.

Hal ini dilakukan agar kedua seniman

dapat mempelajari dan memahami lebih

dalam mengenai medan seni rupa di

kota Bangkok yang secara garis besar

memiliki kemiripan dengan medan seni

rupa di Indonesia.

Pada akhir residensi, tim Tentacles

Art Space membuat acara presentasi

serta pameran tunggal yang berjudul

Two Young Indonesian Artists at Tentacles.

Kedua seniman menampilkan karya-

karya terbaru mereka yang dikerjakan

sepanjang proses residensi.

15 April-19 June 2017

Suryo Herlambang’s residency took

place at The Pickers' Hut @ Glaziers

Bay in the city of Hobart, Tasmania

(Australia), owned by Matt Calvert, a

Tasmanian sculptor.

At the beginning of his residency,

he conducted studies and research

work in Hobart, visiting places like

the Maritime Museum, Allport Library,

Contemporary Art Tasmania, Moonah

Art Centre, Colville Gallery, Bett

Gallery, Despard Gallery, University

of Tasmania, etc. He also visited

studios of local artists like Michael

Schlitz and Zsolt Faludi.

Next, he observed Matt Calvert’s

creative process, which usually began

with sketches for his ideas and other

creative possibilities. He also sought

new materials and experimented with

existing ones.

Using his accumulated studies and

explorations, he chose oven-baked

clay as his creative material and The

Voyagers as his theme. His creative

process continued over four weeks,

and culminated in an exhibition at

Schmorgasbaag, Murray Street, Hobart.

This seven-day exhibition (2-9 June

2017) opened with an artist talk and a

performance by local musicians, Tim

Panaretos and Strangerstill.

At the end of his stay in Australia,

he found time to visit the natural

landscapes of Tasmania and to

observe the robust art and cultural

scene of Melbourne.

Tentacles Art Space (Thailand)

12 April-07 June 2017

Reza Zefanya Mulia and Ajeng

Martia Saputri completed their

residencies at Tentacles Art Space

Bangkok, Thailand. Established by

Henry Tan in 2014, the art space

focuses on organizing regular

exhibition programs and residency

programs for emerging creative

talents.

At the beginning of their

residencies, the two artists narrated

their artistic processes, from overall

topics to their chosen or favored

materials. They also presented

topics of the research they wished to

conduct in Bangkok.

The week that followed was

filled with research and related

work, involving field research, and

environmental surveys inside the

studio and also around Bangkok.

During this process, the two artists

received help from an assistant

attached to Tentacles Art Space.

The residency process continued

with local tours and studio visits. This

allowed the two artists to learn more

and have greater understanding of the

Bangkok art scene, which, in general,

is similar to the one in Indonesia.

At the end of their residency

period, the Tentacles Art Space team

crafted a presentation session and

exhibition, Two Young Indonesian

Artists at Tentacles, where the two

artists presented what they had made

throughout their residency program.
