Extraterrestrial Zone: Custom Toy Workshop
A project group of Dila (Fahla Fadhillah Lotan) and Otong (R. Bonar D. Senan Putro) are inspired by Graffiti and Pop Art and also influenced by the traumatic events of childhood. They create collages of all different segments from some materials like toys, Barbie dolls, Wayang puppets, fabrics, batiks, magazines, beads, and screws. By taking parts from one context and piecing them together into another, their sculptures become hybrid, grotesque, yet fantastic mythical characters found in fantasy movies. ThedeoMIXBLOOD is certainly gifted at embodying what is indescribable into works of art.
