AGE 9 | 2014

By the age of nineBintang was able to depict objects fluently. In 2014, he filled a single,100-page notebook with various drawings or designs of robots. The robots that he drew in this book were the product of his daily observation of household objects, human body parts (like tongues and eyelashes), political party logos (this year corresponded with a presidential campaign, and suggestions from others that did not always derive from objects. Throughout 2014, he painted numerous events such as the world cup, televised ceremonies involving the army, and current trends related to children’s toys, particularly robots. He also created works from recycled leather, glass, miniature toy cars, and batik. And of greatest significance, in 2014, Bintangcelebrated his first solo exhibition at Sidoarum Art House in Yogyakarta, opened by the well-known Indonesian director, GarinNugroho.


Pada usia ini ia telah lancar sekali membentuk objek. Satu buku notes yang tebal (100an halaman) habis digambar dengan beragam desain robot yang digambar setiap hari. Robot-robot yang digambar dalam buku tulis kecil tersebut merupakan hasil dari pengamatannya sehari-hari dari mulai benda-benda yang ada di rumah, organ tubuh manusia (seperti lidah, sampai bulu mata alias idep), logo partai politik karena pada saat itu sedang berlangsung kampanye, hingga usulan dari orang lain yang tak ada objeknya. Tahun 2014, banyak peristiwa yang dilukis, seperti piala dunia, tontonan televisi seperti tentara, dan tren mainan boneka kecil berbentuk robot. Selain itu ia juga membuat karya dari bahan kulit daluang, kaca, mobil miniatur (toys) dan batik. Pada tahun ini pula Bintang berpameran tunggal perdana di Rumah Seni Sidoarum Yogyakarta, yang dibuka oleh sutradara ternama Indonesia, Garin Nugroho.
