Read The Signs, Read The Face
Read the Signs, Read the Face | Acrylic Paint on Canvas (100cm x 100cm)
I've been happily tied up with all these random type of work lately. But I won't show you them because my commission work are more of a design rather than an artwork. Therefor I'd rather show you this piece that was done during the time I did my commission work as an artist just trying to pay his bills.
This piece definitely was influenced by a work I accepted to do that had to deal with logos, signs and typography. During my brief research that I was required to do, I saw that typographical signs became more than just letters. They became just like Tommy. They became a whole shape. And once you get familiar with it, they become a face.
Okay now, let's hit the streets!

De La Flow
Inspired from "Buhloone Mindstate" album cover from the legendary rap trio De La Soul. Besides the visuals, it has inspired me musically. They were pretty on a heavy rotation on my cassette player when I was growing up as a kid and still continue playing their music until today.

Broken Head
Pasted up at Simpang Dago-Bandung, which is a crossroad with all sorts of interesting stuff going on there. Starting from a traditional market taking half of the road space, resulting major daily traffic jams. That's suppose to make a car driver frustrated. But I don't see any of them bother that much. It's like driving through culture, and it's actually beautiful watching the people there with their activities blending peacefully with the chaotic traffic and car horns. So I thought I'd simply interpret it through Tommy.

Gathering Space Gallery Opening
Gathering Space Gallery is located at Cimahi and I believe it is the first one there. It is self organized by the young creative people of Cimahi. Therefor it is very interesting for me and such an honor indeed to participate. I will do a mural at the outdoor gallery wall at the opening on March 29th. So do come by and support this local movement.
