Artist's statement: I was born on 25 November 1979, in Jayapura, the capital of the province of Irian Jaya, which has now changed its name to West Papua - Eastern Indonesia. Since childhood I liked to draw, even sculpt rocks and tree trunks, because where I live there is a river and a forest, but of course I did it just for fun. Later in 2003, the eve of the 24th birthday, I met a supernatural creature, which gives the message to live honestly and patiently. He gave me a title, namely: Raden Sastro Inggil. After that the drive to produce work was even greater and more intense.

Faced with this one sculpture collection, it seems I'm looking at paintings in the style of cubism which is quite brilliant, but in fact what I see is a series of sculptural works of a French-born American artist Armand Pierre Fernandez (1928-2005). In the series "Musical Instruments", he presented a wide variety of musical instrument sculptures shaped, mostly guitar, with the material used is bronze. In my view, he seemed to realize his imagination about the components that make up an object, in this case music instruments, which basically had been created with the physical form which is beautiful and artistic. Certainly not easy to sort out the beauty of the shape of the instrument to be restated as a distinct form which still has a beautiful appearance, but Armand did it. It's like looking at a split 3D puzzle with clear lines, moving in all directions, but still beautiful to behold. I've visited his website, and found a lot of his amazing work, not all are in the style of "cubism" as I look at the three works below. Some of my other favorites from this series are Stelle Violin, Mother and Child, plus his Accord Final from the series of Arman's Orchestra. ARMAN BIOGRAPHY (1928 – 2005) “I specialize very much in… everything,” the French-born American artist Arman told an interviewer in 1968. “I have never been — how do you say it? A dilettante.” Regarded as one of the most prolific and inventive creators of the late 20th century, Arman’s vast artistic output ranges from drawings and prints to monumental public sculpture to his famous “accumulations” of found objects. His work—strongly influenced by Dada, and in turn a strong influence on Pop Art—is in the collections of such institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Tate Gallery in London and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
