Tilas Waktu takes its name from the Javanese concept of tilas, an afterimage or remnant whose presence lingers after disappearance. In this installation, A. Sebastianus transforms domestic decay, ancestral heirlooms, soil, ash, and organic residue into anthropogenic geological formations.

These sculptures aren’t representations of stones; they are living repositories of time, labor, and intimacy. Sitting between shrine, excavation, and speculative ruin, the work destabilizes the boundaries between memory and geology, asking what it truly means to belong to the earth.

Through ‘Just Dance’ and ‘Everything Was Green for a While’, Luh Gede Gita Sangita unpicks the tension between aesthetic composure and hidden histories. Drawing parallels between the staged performances of Balinese dancers at the 1931 Paris Colonial Exposition and the curated flora of London’s Kew Gardens, Gita explores how both cultural practices and natural landscapes are framed for outside consumption. Beneath initial impressions of movement and lush tranquility lie deeper narratives of colonial spectacle, displacement, and quiet erasure. Prompting us to question what rests beneath the surfaces we construct and admire.

Through ‘Yang Bersayap Rangka Daun’ (‘Those Winged with Leaf Skeletons’), Jumaadi Jumaadi invites us to enter the recesses of experience that dwell within shadow. Much like Javanese shadow puppetry, his work dissolves the boundaries between reality and imagination, between representation and non-representation. Through detailed, rhythmic, and lyrical visualisations, as well as subtle deformations of seemingly simple forms within the logic of Kamasan painting, he reveals a world in which such boundaries are naturally permeable. As someone shaped by a Javanese cultural background, Jumaadi draws upon a wayang tradition where the crossing of these thresholds is simply part of how the world is understood.

An imagined landscape balancing beauty and loss. At first glance, a guitar beside glowing water offers a sense of peace. Look closer, and the haze reveals deforested mountains marked by fire. Inspired by Bob Dylan’s A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall, this piece reflects on environmental destruction hidden beneath a serene surface, asking whether humanity is learning from its past or repeating it.

A study in heritage and time. To Luh Gede Gita Sangita, paradise exists between the historic Topeng Telek dancer and the timeless jukung canoes of Sanur. Emerging through ambiguity rather than clear definition, the central figure reflects the fluid nature of oral history, where traditions are constantly carried forward, often being reinterpreted and reshaped.

“Time not as an abstraction, but as material sediment.”

A. Sebastianus explores the intersection of ritual, speculative archaeology, and phenomenology. His exhibition ‘Tilas Waktu’ presents a series of stone-like formations built from compressed human memory, displaced soils gathered from homelands, archival photos, deconstructed literature, textiles, and volcanic matter collected through pilgrimage.

Inspired by ancient megalithic sites like Gunung Padang, the installation blurs the line between artifact, sacred technology, and future ruin. It asks a fundamental question: how do we belong to a landscape, and can human existence itself become stone?

ISA art gallery is pleased to share Arahmaiani's participation in The Bangkok Art Biennale 2026 'Angels and Mara'.

“Angels and Mara”, the theme of Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB 2026), explores dialectical opposites between goodness and the undesirable. Angels are divine messengers across religions, while fallen angels embody corruption and sin. Mara symbolizes death and darker human nature, a demon of obstacles to peace and enlightenment. Set in Bangkok, the City of Angels, BAB 2026 becomes the arena for artists local and afar to reflect on a suffering world shaped by battle cries, terrorism, environmental detriment, corruption and political schism.

Set within Bangkok, the City of Angels, BAB 2026 becomes a platform for artists from Thailand and around the world to reflect upon a world shaped by conflict, terrorism, environmental degradation, corruption, and political division, while contemplating humanity’s enduring search for meaning, resilience, and transcendence.

wishes a very Happy Birthday to Yuki Nakayama.

Yuki Nakayama completed her education at Parsons the New School for Design, focusing on interior design and delving into the exploration of play within domestic and public spaces. As her interests expanded to encompass larger scales, she furthered her education at The Cooper Union, where she studied architecture. Architecture and interior definitely have a big influence on her paintings. Her artworks resemble abstracted blue-prints, with shapes and lines arranged harmoniously across her canvases.

23/07/2026

In ‘A Blur is A Memory’, Luh Gede Gita Sangita explores how memories are remembered—not through sharp, perfect recollection, but through feeling, movement, and subtle observation. Sharing the frame here are two distinct works that capture these quiet shifts, ’Hospitality in Bloom’ and ‘Ogoh-Ogoh from My Digicam’.

Both works, and others in this exhibition, invites us to look past the postcard view, finding meaning in the blurred edges of memory, routine, and lived experience.

Location: ISA Art Gallery, Wisma 46, Central Jakarta

‘Hospitality in Bloom’
2026
Oil on Canvas
50 x 30 cm

Turning our attention to the ubiquitous frangipani—a flower deeply woven into sacred daily offerings, yet routinely staged for visitors. Through this quiet icon, Luh’De observes how the Balinese landscape itself is slowly designed to perform as a “welcome” message, sitting in tension between natural reverence and designed hospitality.



‘Ogoh-Ogoh from My Digicam’
2026
Oil on Canvas
50 x 30 cm

Capturing the raw, kinetic energy of Nyepi Eve—the Balinese ritual of cleansing evil forces before the Day of Silence—Luh’De uses a flash of red light and motion-blurred crowds to move away from rigid record-keeping, preserving the imperfect, fleeting emotion of the moment where atmosphere supersedes detail.



‘Hospitality in Bloom’, ‘Ogoh-Ogoh from My Digicam’, alongside other works by Luh’De Gita and Etza Meisyara are currently exhibited at:
