Gesito Arhant

Gesito Arhant Anggoro is an artist born, raised, and working in Yogyakarta. He graduated from the Yogyakarta Fine Arts High School and the Faculty of Fine Arts, Indonesian Institute of the Arts Yogyakarta. His interest in fine art began to develop seriously in 2017, and since 2018, he has been actively involved in various group exhibitions and cross-spatial art programs.

In his artistic practice, Gesito maintains a strong focus on everyday realities and the constantly changing social landscape. His experience living in suburban areas has been a crucial source in shaping his visual ideas. He views landscape not simply as a representation of space, but as a field that captures the tensions between humans, nature, development, consumption, and collective memory. Disruptions to living space, changing values, and the relationship between humans and their environment are the primary driving forces behind his work.
