2024PARADISO SERIES
On Fragments of Time
The theme, Paradiso, is the base idea to comprehend something about
ideal memories through the practice of painting. “The Ideal” is a state
of understanding that the painter tries to seek through its own term. As
far as we try to reach “the ideal”; we add, diminish and erase things.
In the same essence, there’s a parallel tension in memory; how the
painter chooses between the joy to find gems in remembering or to
forget. The sims logo here indicates a simulation world (as we live now
through virtual world) where me as the painter is playing the God in a
parallel world.
On Native Tourists
Luh’De continues this series of Paradiso while placing herself and her family as the “Native Tourists”. This time, rather than just sourcing her images with
photos of the beaches’ situations in Bali, in her residency with Desa, she puts herself and
her siblings as the tourists on her paintings. Luh’De Gita made use of the residency’s area to
become the main muse of her artworks rather than herself or her family. Other than that, she also explores more media to express the theme. Such as the limestones that are close
to her family’s own business for landscaping the tourism needs and the fragile yet colourful
ceramics. All become her curated items for her exhibition - like a concept store that always
tries to offer something unique to the customers with their ideal models and items.
