JANGAN LUPA BAWA OLEH-OLEH YA

6 January - 8 February 2018
Artist in Residence Exhibition #8
Ida Lawrence (AUS)

JANGAN LUPA BAWA OLEH-OLEH YA (DON\'T FORGET TO BRING BACK SOUVENIRS) takes its starting point from \'oleh-oleh\' (souvenirs) and muses on what it is we take and understand from another place - as a tourist, an artist, a researcher, a colonial power.

Alongside personal souvenir stories of the artist and friends in Indonesia and abroad, this exhibition includes a playful assemblage of familiar and not-so-familiar oleh-oleh from Yogyakarta, and new research on the archipelago\'s colonial past.

Ida Lawrence is an Indonesian-Australian visual artist who is interested in the stories behind things, both real and fictional. Her first artist residency and solo exhibition was with Tembi Rumah Budaya in 2012, and since then she has held ten solo exhibitions and attended residencies in Japan, Malaysia and Australia. Her work has been included in group exhibitions such as 15th Asian Art Biennale (National Academy of Fine and Performing Arts, Dhaka, Bangladesh) and Sculpture By The Sea (Sydney, Australia). She usually lives in Sydney, Australia, but was based in Yogyakarta between 2010-2013.

JANGAN LUPA BAWA OLEH-OLEH YA (DON\'T FORGET TO BRING BACK SOUVENIRS) dimulai dari \'oleh-oleh\' (souvenir) dan renungan tentang apa yang kita ambil dan pahami dari tempat lain - sebagai turis, seniman , seorang peneliti, kekuatan kolonial.

Berangkat dari cerita-cerita pribadi sang seniman serta teman-teman di Indonesia dan luar negeri seputar suvenir, pameran ini mencakup gabungan yang cukup jenaka akan oleh-oleh yang sudah biasa dan populer dengan oleh-oleh yang tidak biasa dari Yogyakarta, serta kajian baru tentang masa lalu kepulauan Indonesia sebagai wilayah jajahan.

Ida Lawrence adalah seniman Indonesia-Australia yang tertarik dengan cerita di balik berbagai hal, baik yang nyata maupun yang fiktif. Residensinya yang pertama sekaligus pameran tunggalnya yang pertama yaitu dengan Tembi Rumah Budaya pada tahun 2012, dan sejak saat itu dia mulai mengikuti sepuluh pameran tunggal serta mengikuti program residensi-residensi lain, misalnya di Jepang, Malaysia dan Australia. Karyanya juga pernah dipamerkan di Asian Cultural Biennale ke-15 (National Academy of Fine and Performing Arts, Dhaka, Bangladesh) dan Sculpture By The Sea (Sydney, Australia). Dia menetap di Sydney, Australia, tapi mulai berkarya di Yogyakarta antara 2010-2013.
