As a child of Bali, Kencut (B. 1994) understands deeply the richness and magic of the indigineous culture of his land. Art has been a part of his life since he was in vocational high school, and since then it has served as the foundation for his painting practice. Following that, he continued his education in art at the Yogyakarta Indonesian Art Institute. Conceived as a rediscovery of the island culture, his artistic creation comes from the interconnections of history, tradition, and religion. Based on his understanding of Indonesian local culture, Kencut has further expanded his art beyond the limit of the island's traditions and started to broaden and to include more diverse perspectives of the world beyond. The tunnel vision in his painting, the button-eyed creatures all came out of this combination. His current artistic technique is also closely tied to the accumulation of experiences embedded within his subconscious since childhood, and it reflects his past experience in a culminative way. The central character as the stuffed dolls with whimsical patterns and buttons for the eyes was inspired by a chance conversation between him and Ary Indra, a well-known Indonesian architect. Despite his young age Kencut has exhibited abundantly in Asia, Europe and the U.S. and had 8 solo exhibitions and 51 group presentations since 2016.
