ICAD
Weaving the World
Jakarta Tourism and Creative Economy Service, Jakarta Capital City Government, and Indonesian Contemporary Art (ICAD) presents Weaving the World. Curator Diana Nazir, Amanda Ariawan, assistant curator, and AndikaFrestian artistic director, design a space that is an attempt at unification,coexistence and intersection of elements that by themselves represent a fraction: art and design, craftsmanship and technology, softness and hardness, slowness and speed,while on this occasion they become part of one whole, complete and totalizing. The unifying element is the act of weaving, perceived as a balance of contrasts.
The exhibition displays the collaboration between manufacturing, visual art, graphics, and design. Coexisting Are Pieces inspired by traditional craftsmanship, furniture of modern design skillfully mixed with the timeless charm of original Indonesian production, and forays into the world of fashion with important material and morphological explorations.
