Eddi Prabandono
(b. 1964 in Pati, Central Java, Indonesia)

Eddi Prabandono studied Art at Institute of Art (ISI) Yogyakarta. He currently lives and works in Yogyakarta and Okinawa, Japan.

Eddi Prabandono is an artist who involves design, planning, and construction in creating his large-scale pieces. He does not work on his  pieces alone. Just like in construction projects, Eddi Prabandono involves many workers: to create designs and even work plans that need [careful] calculation. However, his pieces does not turn into merely structural things, because of the way he incorporated the evolution of languages of expressions in creating them.

Throughout his career as an artist, Eddi Prabandono had attended various residency programs, among others: Nagasawa Art Park Artist -in Residence, The Japan Foundation, Awaji City, Hyogo, Japan (1998); Artist Coming Home - Artist Studio Program NAP, Awaji City Hyogo, Japan (2007). He also joined the residency program at Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, Vermont, USA (2010) after winning the 2009/2010 Asian Artist Fellowship, sponsored by the Freeman  Foundation for the Vermont Studio Center.

Eddi Prabandono is also a commissioned artist for ART/JOG 11 Yogyakarta, Bazaar Art Jakarta, Pacific Palace - Jakarta and Living Sculpture in The Sea Program by The Marine Foundation London at Amed Under Water Gallery - Bali.
