Following the evocative journey of Life Records I, which delved into the formative years of several pioneering Indonesian artists, Life Records II continues this intimate exploration — shifting the focus to another group of remarkable artists whose creative lives have also intersected with Sin Sin Fine Art in deeply meaningful ways.
This second chapter brings together works by Anusapati, Andy Dewantoro, Dani Huda, Hanafi, Jumaldi Alfi, Lie Fhung, M. Irfan, Nasirun, Rudi Mantofani, Talitha Maranila, and Zulkarnaini Rustam — alongside a more recent series of works by Sin Sin Man herself. Each artist presents pieces that act as visual memoirs — quiet yet powerful reflections on the personal, emotional, and philosophical landscapes they have traversed over the years.
These artists are not merely names in a list; they are companions on a shared creative journey that has unfolded across decades. Their works — contemplative, courageous, and deeply individual — speak of transformations both internal and external. Some explore memory and identity through abstraction, others through figurative narratives or material experimentation. Collectively, they form a rich, multidimensional portrait of artistic resilience and evolution.
For Sin Sin Man, this exhibition is not just a curatorial act, but a continuation of a lifelong dialogue with artists who have inspired her, challenged her, and grown with her. Through Life Records II, she honours these enduring relationships and the quiet, persistent passage of time that shapes every artist’s story.
Together, Life Records I & II create a sweeping mosaic of contemporary Indonesian art — not as a movement or a trend, but as a constellation of lives being lived through art. Each work is a record. Each artist, a witness. Each exhibition, a gesture of remembrance and reverence.
