I live in the city of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Painting taught me to explore philosophy in an effort to get a better quality of life.

Like the ocean where many rivers begin. The ocean never refuses, even all the garbage sent from the rivers is accepted, then shed so that the sea water remains clean. The oceans are willing to give fishermen fish, pearls, salt and all their wealth without expecting anything in return.

This is my hope, and I try to live it.
