Muhammad Farel Sudanta

Muhammad Farel Sudanta is an emerging artist from Indonesia whose works blend visual storytelling with poetic expression and socio-economic narratives from the world of fisheries and marine life. Drawing inspiration from both literature and his academic background in fisheries socio economics, Farel creates sketches that reflect the daily lives of fishers, aquaculture workers, and coastal communities capturing their strength, fragility, and silent poetry.

His art bridges the emotional depth of poetry with the realities of marine livelihoods, using expressive lines and handwritten verses to form a visual archive of life by the sea. Through this dual lens, he hopes to raise awareness, spark empathy, and honor the people behind the fisheries sector who are often overlooked.
