Sauh (Sand stuffed nylon stockings) from Michelle Jovita | @mic_jovitaaa for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Michelle Jovita’s (b. 2001) art originates from her curiosity in observing people and understanding their personalities. People stand as a vital element in her work, as Michelle positions her works as a way for one to interact with another, with the art, and with the space. Ever so compelling, Michelle’s three-dimensional pieces stand as installations, encouraging us to look beyond the
surface and delve into each layer of her creations. @mic_jovitaaa #michellejovita #readyspace

(Crumpled paper) from R Saarah | @r__saarah for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Through her works, R. Saarah (b. 2001) embraces the simplicity of the mundane. Saarah translates
her ideas through printmaking techniques, from etching, screenprint, to the meticulous practice of letterpress. For her, the smallness of things that go unnoticed is the place where art blooms. Her works give room for what seems so trivial to be seen and appreciated. @r__saarah #rsaarah #readyspace

(Mixed media on trancing paper & Mixed media on paper) from Wina | @stinkypinkkkk for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Change is inevitable, and Wina (b. 2001) embraces its presence in our existence through her works. The changes we see, feel, and unknowingly accept, are translated by Wina into a wide array of media. She explores the potentials of drawing, by juxtaposing mediums to merge into one harmonious composition. Through the language of lines, colors, and shapes, she composes
abstractions to invite us to contemplate the everchanging nature of life. @stinkypinkkkk #wina #readyspace
burnout: digital liminal space
(Acrylic on Linen, wooden base & Pencil and Acrylic on Linen) from Ilham Karim | @namaku.karim for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
The works of Ilham Karim (b. 1999) are closely tied with his references from digital culture. Karim paints with a lot of vibrant colors and eclectic gestures to serve his thoughts of the ever-evolving human nature. Painting became a medium for him to fuse his exploration of diverse artistic media and the expressive human form, as a way to go beyond the possibilities of two dimensional painting creation. @namaku.karim #ilhamkarim #readyspace
Common Ground: This Seat is not Reserved (Screenprint on mixed media) from Kay Saputra | @kqyto for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Kay Saputra (b. 2001) is an artist whose practice explores human interaction as a form of cultural study. His work projects his interest in communal spaces and public infrastructure, how they reflect the behaviors, needs, and values of the communities within them. For Kay, the idea of “public space” extends beyond the physical realm to include the vast landscape of the digital world, where
new forms of interaction and collective presence continue to emerge. @kqyto #kaysaputra #readyspace
Closer than They Appear (Oil on Canvas) & A Pool to Shed Your Memory (Oil on canvas) from Abil | @bilblubup for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Abil (b. 2001) celebrates the importance of recalling memories through her paintings. Memories come in many shapes and forms, and our remembrance took the main stage of their portrayal in the present. In her paintings, Abil makes peace with our inability to keep memories from withering, embraces the presentness of our lives, and offers all the probabilities of tomorrow. With bright colors and semi-abstract compositions, Abil invites us to partake in the contemplation of moments in every timeline of life. @bilblubup #readyspace #abil
Teman Satu Tubuh (Dye and bleach on stitched canvas) & Manusia Kunang-kunang (Acrylic on canvas) from Taufiqur | @taufiqrr_ for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
By exploring compositions and abstractions, Taufiqur (b. 2001) expresses his views towards the diversity that he experienced at an early age. Taufiqur, who grew up in a multicultural family, often speaks about the dynamics of the human experience; psychologically, socially, and spiritually. He took inspiration in being free, translating it by expressively challenging the boundaries of a canvas through his acrylic pouring, paint splatters, and stitches. @taufiqrr_ #readyspace #taufiqur
Lor (Oil on Canvas, 2025) from Bagas Mahardika | @beranomali for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Iconic Catholic figures had become a profound visual inspiration for Bagas Mahardika (b. 2001),
who was raised in a traditional Catholic–Javanese household. Be it in cathedrals, at school, or even
inside of his house, he was often met with the interactions of these icons and their daily
surroundings. His practice in painting led Bagas to explore the meaning of these iconic figures if
they were placed inside the cocoon of anonymity. @beranomali #bagasmahardika #readyspace
rooted, recall (Linocut on Paper, 2025) from Fahmi Azis | @azoszis for group show exhibition “Of Motion and Motives” on view through January 13 2026
Fahmi Azis (b. 2000) houses his subjects from a magical realm into intricate, detailed, two dimensional pieces. From his own dreams to tarotical depictions, Azis portrays the layers of his subconscious reality into the layers of vivid linocut printing. Azis first carved his interest in printmaking as a student, and has been carving his artistic journey by one linoleum at a time ever since. @azoszis #azoszis #readyspace
Last night at READYSPACE.
An opening shaped by presence rather than spectacle—
friends, conversations, pauses, and shared attention.
The works have entered the room, but more importantly,
the room has been activated by those who came, stayed, and felt.
Thank you for turning an opening into a moment.
The exhibition is now open.
A space where movement becomes intention,
and motives quietly take form.
