☠️ Synthetic Eden ☠️
Modern conveniences breed plastic culture. We live in a capitalistic system where it compels us to indisputably become dependent on mass production of single use plastic.
In this culture, consumption is detached from consequence. The act of discarding is made effortless, almost ritualistic, obscuring the afterlife of what we throw away.
Landfills swell, oceans absorb, and ecosystems adapt under pressure, mutating in response to materials they were never meant to encounter.
Plastic does not simply pollute; it rewrites biological and geological narratives, embedding itself into cycles of life and decay.

You think: you're terrible at creating art; your artwork doesn't make sense to you; no story behind it!
I Story? I Yes, what am I going to tell? Why did I draw this?
³³
Why, fish? 🐟 ... Fish looks poetic (to me). I don't usually fond of eating a fish. So, I don't associate fishy smell with fish drawing.
Sometimes, it is detachment from the subject which brings ourselves obsessing over it.
We choose our own reality that we like & negate another.

The world is ... too much for me
Or rather inconsequential
Life; births and departures
A vigor and a wilted memory
Repetitive...
with or without me

Ketintang, March 2023.
No one else—only I stayed behind; me and my melancholy. Alive among piles of empty room doors. It was a rainy March, cold and gloomy. What a lovely season for melancholy to breed.

Found this in my old sketchbook: my first flight on an airplane, on April 16th, 2018, from Bengkulu to Lampung. The idea was that my mom would teach me how to safely board a flight before I went off to college in another city. So, she took me along on her business trip there. I learned how to navigate the airport—where and how to check in, go through baggage claim, and all the whichs and whats of a single commute.
As someone with an inattentive mind, the challenge was real. The hustle and bustle of the airport, the sea of people, the overwhelming mix of functional and commercial signs, countless turns and corners, and the flight ticket constantly in hand—I must have rechecked the information on it a dozen times just to reassure myself I wouldn’t miss the flight. 😵💫
But I was chill (enough) 😎 not to faint in such an overwhelming environment. Flying solo wasn’t a problem for me anymore, I just followed the directions logically and intuitively, and deadened most of my stimuli so I wouldn't get too anxious :|
The first sketch was of the view from the waiting room at Raden Inten International Airport in Bandar Lampung, on my return flight home on April 18th. The other sketches were drawn at CGK (Soekarno–Hatta) on April 16th.
Lastly, the poem—I think I wrote it when I was dealing with a flight delay and feeling drained from all the waiting. Ciao~

I moved here recently. The air is nice, the water is as cold as ice, and the land is fertile. It’s a place rich in history and blessed with sublime scenery. Thank God for this gift to me.
Don’t forget to take some deep breaths🌱

Indahnya meruah ya
Di panel terakhir ada foto sebongkah batu mirip kepala raksasa yang terdampar
Kedua liang matanya seolah menyiratkan pilu,
seperti berkata ingin pulang
Mungkin ia terjatuh dari atas
Dari pulau melayang di atas langit berjuluk Laputa
(Merujuk pada Castle in The Sky-nya Studio Ghibli)

Surprisingly, I had the stamina to bake this rather arduous lemon meringue pie yesterday evening, right up to the point where it was ready to be chilled in the fridge for today’s dessert. Making the pie crust from scratch was a bit of a back-and-forth process.
Maybe it was the kitchen vibe, combined with Le Festin playing in the background, that inspired me to bake spontaneously.
Later, I realized that being in the act of baking—and cooking—is one of the moments I cherish most. It’s the loveliest me time. Bon appétit~
