About the artwork

R1 Vic till13 Adi Gunawan portrays the warmth and affection between his characters as he creates the rounded figures, the loving gestures and emotions in the faces and body motions of his characters, bringing to us the comfort and joy in the presence of companionship that we love and enjoy. Two human beings, absent of identifiable genders and social stature, are sculpted in an embracing moment, an intimate kiss that showcases human's incessant love for each other.



About the artist

Adi was born in Yogyakarta in 1974, Indonesia and received his education at Institut Seni Indonesia, Yogyakarta. In his symbolic sculptures, Adi invokes euphoria and the significance of animals in his work due to his cultural background of growing up in an agrarian society. He uses his cultural positioning as a tool to visualize motions, gestures, characters and expressions of various subjects that he sculpts. He then conveys constructed meaning which, in and through his forms, figures and compositions, puts forth the issue of a mystical relationship between animals and humans. Adi’s highest accolade thus far was representing Indonesia at the Beijing Olympics 2008 Fine Arts Exhibition, where he was bestowed the further honor of an Olympic Torch Award. His sculpture toured Hong Kong, the United States, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland and many other countries.
