Santy Saptari Art Consulting is curating Landscape: Reinvention, a two-artist presentation that brings together works by Kemalezedine (b. 1978, Yogyakarta, lives in Bali) and Savanhdary Vongpoothorn (b. 1971, Laos, lives in Canberra) at 39+ Art Space.
Both artists work through their respective geographical and cultural inheritances in the genre of landscape, mapping insistently real yet abstract forms on canvas. Where Kemalezedine negotiates Balinese painting, a part of yet distant to his Indonesian identity, Vongpoothorn traces the contours of a distant Laotian and Asian visuality, a heritage distant to her current Australian landscape.
