Continuing...

"Know the rules, then break what's legal..."
    To be different, is to be the unforgotten one.

            Have you ever imagined that this beautiful lady is not "a girl" ? I'm sure you don't even notice it from every side you see her, especially physically. In fact, Bangkok has been well known as a "beautiful guy" producer since then. This photo was taken by Matthew Chuah, from his fan's facebook.  And i just realised that Bangkok made use of this kinds of attracting points for its tourism, which is very entertaining to be one of their base choice for Bangkok to be the place to visit. Meanwhile, in the other side everybody knew that "that" thing is forbidden. And that's already written down in the Holy Bible, clearly. 






          This nude and sexy mug came from my hometown. Joger Tuban for the detail. I'm pretty sure when you see them in the store, you'll be curious or even wrinkle-ing your face to find out "what is it about?" or "how dare did the artist made the design of it? " 
The design's quite simple, but the meaning of it makes you give a "whoaaaa". And yet its still breaking the rules, because its really unusual.

Week 2..

"Be Stupid! 
And break the rules.."

          I've got those words from yesterday's creative thinking lesson. Sometimes, being stupid is really a choice to create something different or to invent what's out of the box. Because actually, we're born to be different. To be stupid is to make a history, to be memorable.
   And here are the pictures that's made me amazed for their braveness and creativity, to break what's built.

      This beautiful yet dangerous photo has taken by Dane Shitagi. Dane Shitagi is a NYC based photographer. Originally from Honolulu, he followed his instincts to live the photographic life. Taking inspiration from the sights and sounds of “the city” as well as the energy and diverse arts, Dane has formed a unique and heartfelt body of work that is sooo beautiful and personal. Rather than molding his ideas to the studio set, he has taken his creativity and inspiration from the world outside. This is one of his inspiring pictures, he plays with the black and white colour, and the ballerina as the object. But what makes it unusual is the setting(place). I was wondering why he chose the train station as the setting. And it reflects his "risk taker" personality. If you can see the train is coming from that small corridor side, but he's still using the lights of the train as the lighting from his photograph, to make it still alive. I think his mission has been accomplished, and made all the viewers remember his photos and his name. And for the bonus, his followers are filling up his accounts, always.

             This acrylic on canvas 36x36 inches picture, made by Kevin T Williams, in the earlier 2012. This series called "break the rules" simply because the artist used Richard Pryor (December 1, 1940 – December 10, 2005as the main object to be captured on. As we know, that Richard Pryor is was a stand up comedian, and he's quite famous at that year. And when the artist finished this art on canvas, Richard Pryor has passed away many years before. And the information un-litteraly told us that he made it without any permission and contract as it's supposed to be. And its really valuable for him, as he sold it for $1.350.

               This photo was taken by an unknown photographer. When i saw this photo at first, i was thinking over limits. I thought about what was on his mind and what's made he dares to break something by asking people to helped him, the stood right in front of the walls, then "braakkk!!!" "ckrriikkk!!" . Taking photos and breaking the wall at the same time. Its really break the rules because it tells the meaning and the purpose from the artist through the photo. Break through barriers, and what is original, brilliant, provocative, controversial, and/or authentic about you and your work has a chance to shine. And this shocking photo will be absolutely unforgotten.

           Today i found this cute caricature picture when i surfed to the internet and decided to use it as my 4th photo for this week two blog. This picture grabbed my attention just like that. And its not because the caricature style, but its because the artist's , Abdul Salim(2010) idea. He chose Barack Obama as the caricature cartoon, and i'm sure he knew exactly who is that number one man in States. He did it with the adobe illustrator, and for me it breaks the rule enough. Without any permission, he made Barack Obama's funny face and  published it in social networks to earn money.

                                               Pierre's Photograph 2013. 

Singapore's night life sometimes make me feel so sleek and instant. The buildings are so tall and the lights are so charm. And this photo was taken by my boyfriend at Marina Bay Sands. I look form my point of view, that Singapore's really modern as a global tiny country in Asia, for the lighting system also the futuristic architectural.

         "You might not be the first, you might not be the last. But if you're the one who touches someone's life, you're the one to remember..". These words have really stuck in my mind since the first time i got it in the instagram through . not only because the really fine lights shade and decorations behind it, but its because the words are really inspiring me. And it could be a life motivation, with a faith that no one's useless in this earth. Everybody has their own time to be remembered, not only for the physical looks, but the most important is you're worth to be in someone else's life.

              Lily has meaning of purity, holy, and politeness. But pink Lily has its own meaning. It reflects beauty and prosperity. What makes me interested with this picture's because i love flowers, i love pink, and i like the smell of beauty. 









And it continues...

Today is 25th of July, 2013 and i'm posting the continues-ly picture for the "a picture a day" exercise.


                      Those two of papers look ordinary, it is. But they save so many stories and memories inside. I made those random sketches in my drawing lesson. The first picture calls leak http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak
The sketches may not very nice but i think beyond words that day. i just draw, and tadaaaaaa!! it becomes a really scary Balinese monster. The second picture has a bit more formal definition. Its a really basic sketches of 3D things, and hatching technique. I got the idea from my teacher sketches, he draw me a triangle and cubes in so many sizes. So creatively, i draw what's in my head, and made them stand in a 3D way and gave them a hatch finishing technique.

              This is an old photo of mine, i got it from my friend's Facebook, his name is Jelantik. And he's a photographer in Bali. I choose this photo to be posted because i really like the moment of Galungan day and ceremony in Bali. Just for your information, Bali is my home town, a land of gods, and a must place to go on a holiday. And Galungan day is their big day, and it'll come twice a year, according to the Balinese calendar. 
Balinese cultures and arts are beyond rich. Especially for their homemade ceremony requirements, such as penjor and pajegan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bali . 
Their "out of the box" thinking always make me feel special of being a Balinese. For the example the white tall flags and the fruit bamboos stand. I've never seen that kinds of things before, and the meaning  of the combinations is to praise their gods with their offerings. 





            My feet. I took this photo about 2 weeks ago, in HardRock Hotel Sentosa. I really miss my home town and i felt like i really need to go to the beach, just like i always did in Bali. For you information, in my home town, beaches are everywhere . The sands and waves are abundantly produced everyday, so i really understand which beach and the ecosystem is good. The first time i felt the sand and made a foot print on this "made up" sands on the pool side reminded me everything about beach. and the creative thing was i thought about how the inventor found this beautiful sands just like the original one. The structure, the colours, and the way it absorbed water, may not be really original, because its a bit more flawless and too bright. But the purpose of the inventors is really brilliant, so every busy people can feel the "beach" with no need to go too far away.

Vivid floral pattern, old furniture, comfortable corner, cozy lights, nude colours combination, are really related to a thing called Shabby Chic. I really like the picture because the room looks so nice with the placement of the furnitures, the colours path, and also unpretentious shapes and lights. The catchy thing about this room is, it looks homely comfortable. The components around the room successfully make an inspiration for me to think that its not about the price, but its bout the way you re-design your own room.  


My very first post.

Hello everyone :D

       Its the 22nd of July 2013, and my Uni life has just started. 
For the first lesson from this first semester, i learned about how to think creative in creative thinking class. This is one of my favourite studies, since high school *fyi*. Not because i'm a hard thinker, but its more because thinking is totally free. And think creative is something that can release stresses of mine, also deeply improve my writing skill. Because every time i think about everything that surrounded me, i write. 
 And this is my first picture of " a picture a day" exercise. 



        This gravity making is really inspiring me. I got this picture from my sister's instagram in the earlier of April the 21st, this year. The artist makes it looks special, because its a 'lady hand making", and its about a right of ladies in Indonesia. And what she's made is containing a really gigantic history of Indonesia. That beautiful lady named Raden Ajeng Kartini, but everybody used to call her Ibu Kartini. Her passion, belief, and her faith makes her one of the biggest legends, as she fought for the rights of every women to stood still and  kept the head up to do her duty, and get the humanism academic just like the boys. And this gravity making shows us how the patriotism feelings could be formed in many different kind of ways.

             This is my second picture. It's a mask, kind of. What makes it so artistic are the colours, the patterns, the  tiny and big elements, and mostly the idea of the artist. It makes me think creatively everytime i think what's the purpose of the artist from every lines, dots, circles, and shapes. it combines the nature, living things and un-living things, senses, comparison and contrast, also a high level of imagination. So we can say that what ever it is, where ever it is, or how ever it is, there'll be something to unite differences as one.

July 24, 2013. I decided this picture as my third picture as well as the ambience inside the picture. The 3 dimensional looks, poured so many ideas unto me to think creative why the colour white and navy blue can build an obvious nautical theme. and its also connected to phycological ways, how an interior architecture designer can make a very green corner, to a really calm and warm ambience, with those minimalist cushions, a little touch of nature, and with adding some "tea time" preferences on the table. It will persuade every eyes, to see or even sit on the charming sofa. 




             July 21st, 2013. I've been watching TED talks in black board and youtube. The 30 minutes video brought me to think more and more why adults always shy to show what they've done. In a really basic way, we should think and act like a child. Their pride is always in a good level, never be embarrassed for small things, or even their eyes always speak confidently. It said so because actually visual art is not something you can put scores  on. There's no such things like that, because everything has their own values. And one more important thing, art never forces us to to something beyond complex, but it sometime persuades us to do the roll play, just like children play to fill the social script, even though they made it by themselves. It sometimes build the confidences in our lives.
