    Indra Dodi

    Indra Dodi, born in 1980 in Sumatra, Lampung, with roots tracing back to Padang in West Sumatra, received his artistic training at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts, Yogyakarta (ISI). His artistic style is characterized by scribbled lines and streams of texts in English alphabets, creating a unique blend of abstract and figurative elements in his works.

    Dodi's paintings often feature everyday subjects depicted with childlike yet dynamic lines, evoking a sense of casual observation akin to watching passers-by from a sidewalk cafe. The background texts, although mostly incomprehensible, add an intriguing layer to his art, blurring the line between describing the figures and being illustrated by them.

    For Dodi, painting is a means of continuous expression, a way to spill out what is on his mind in his own distinctive manner. He views himself more as a painter than an artist, emphasizing the natural desire for creation inherent in all individuals. While his art leans towards abstraction, viewers are drawn to uncovering the hidden meanings and stories behind his canvases, immersing themselves in a personal pictorial space crafted by Dodi's unique modes of expression.

    Dodi also highlights his rebellious perspective and the essence of speaking reality from his own viewpoint. His subjects range from elements of daily life to deeper themes like love and self-expression. Dodi encourages viewers to tap into their childlike way of thinking to rediscover the essence of artistic creativity within themselves.
