ISA Art Gallery invites you to join us during Jogja Art Week 2026 for ‘Sedulur Watu’, a two-person exhibition by A. Sebastianus (.sebastianus) and Marten Bayuaji () at Omah Budoyo, Yogyakarta ().
Derived from the Javanese words “sedulur” (kinship) and “watu” (stone), ‘Sedulur Watu’ reflects on stone as a symbol of endurance, memory, and spiritual presence. Across cultures, stones have long embodied permanence, protection, and resilience, carrying histories and beliefs across generations. Within Javanese culture and Kejawen traditions, they are understood not merely as physical matter, but as vessels of ancestral energy, grounding, and balance between the human and spiritual worlds.
Through installation, material experimentation, and symbolic gestures, the exhibition considers the relationship between body, earth, and memory, positioning stone as both witness and companion through the passage of time.

Omah Budoyo, Yogyakarta
Jl. Karangkajen No. 793, Yogyakarta 55153.
