ARTWORK
Last Defense are three artworks that illustrate a self-defense after for almost three years I have been preoccupied with a variety of activities (of custom, culture, tradition) that are very time-consuming and unavoidable since I was fated to be born in a Brahmin family, being given the trust to lead my people (Kelian Banjar). Finally, in a contemplation I was awakened how the custom, culture, and tradition in Bali play a very strong role as the last bastion of the Balinese people in the face of the onslaught of the era of technological development.
These three works are born from the accumulation of contemplations for the last three years, taking the visual of Balinese paintings (inspired by Deblog) as the power of tradition; a visual of struggle with arrows or spears (as an onslaught of the times) and the head of an ox (Last Defense 1) as a symbol of Balinese beliefs.
With the progress of the times, along with the development of technology, the old society will shift to more individual societies. Only with a sense of confidence and trust, through lived customs and the preservation of culture and traditions as the last defense of the Balinese people, that we will make it.
