Junk art, by natstan on Sept 5, 2014 7:40:35 GMT 1, Have been a member on here for over a year now but think I have not contributed much in terms of exposing the forum to more of what's happening on the street/ urban art scene in Asia. I'm frankly quite sick of just making comments on here like 'oh yeah that's a nice print' and 'what a piece of s&t!'. So I thought I should begin to share!
Anyway, just flew to visit an artist buddy in Jogjakarta, Indonesia (land of the famous Borobodur temple and a province where many big time contemporary Indonesian artists studied and started their careers) 2 weeks ago, and noticed that the town is simply packed with artistically-inclined folks all over. Visited some printmakers and artists during the trip, and I was pointed to this particular dude. Not sure whether I can term these sculptures as street art, but he definitely works up and reworks everything from junk and thrash he found on the streets! The results are crazy.
P.s. They don't smell though.
