Age 6 | 2011

Throughout 2011, Bintang studied various techniques from pencil and crayon to stamp printing, using his own hand as a stamp, applied directly to paper. Such work is significant as it documents the size of Bintang’s hand when he was six-years old. At this age, Bintangalso continued his exploration of recycled materials, using items such as milk cartons as drawing surfaces. He regularly painted with acrylic on canvas and as his energy increased, Bintangspent entire afternoons after school drawing. In order to preserve his works on cardboard, Bintang’s parents have stored them in glass cases in order that they are not destroyed or gather dust.


Tahun ini Bintang belajar berbagai teknik, dari yang hanya pensil dan krayon, bertambah dengan teknik cetak stempel, dengan cara mencetak tangannya sendiri pada kertas. Karya ini amat penting untuk mendokumentasi ukuran tangannya pada saat itu. Selain itu, juga melakukan proses kreatif menggunakan bahan kardus bekas produk susu yang diminumnya, berukuran sedang sebagai bidang gambar. Pada tahun ini ia sudah menggunakan kanvas, dengan bahan akrilik. Tenaganya makin kuat, sepanjang hari seusai pulang sekolah banyak membuat sketsa dan hampir semua yang memungkinkan digambar dilakukan. Untuk melindungi karya kardusnya, orang tuanya memberi pelindung berupa kaca akrilik agar karyanya tidak rusak atau berdebu.
