In Switzerland and Holland I exhibited my work in Ethnology Museums. That artwork from contemporary Indonesian artists is still relegated to these Museums should be questioned. In Asian countries we must think carefully to avoid the stereotypes found in the U.S. and European countries. My dream is for a museum with humidity. In tropical countries, humidity is important for - for the land, for nature's recycling.
Land depends on trees, without the roots of trees to hold it together, land becomes desert.
Art is made with natural elements, a life museum. In Jogyakarta there is the Taman Sari museum, and there are many cultural activities including textile making. So, from the concept of the static museum building it embraces real life and becomes a new museum. So it's basically an interdisciplinary place. A space between life and art.
