Gilang Fradika's latest solo exhibition, "Doa di Rongga Ibu: Di Bawah Lidah – Di Tengah Selat", opens this Saturday, August 1st. Join us for an artist talk by Gilang Fradika at 3.00pm followed by the opening reception from 4.00pm to 7.00pm at SARENG Gallery.

Inspired by the profound philosophies in Subagio Sastrowardoyo's poetry, Gilang’s works blend figurative and still life elements, presenting moments of beauty that convey underlying narratives of ecological and human vulnerability. Rather than offering direct answers or provocative statements, the exhibition encourages reflection, dialogue, and a deeper awareness of our relationship with the world around us.

“Doa di Rongga Ibu: Di Bawah Lidah – Di Tengah Selat” ultimately poses the question: how do these visuals evoke our emotions, and what truths linger in the spaces where words fall silent?

The preview of Gilang Fradika’s latest solo exhibition, “Doa di Rongga Ibu: Di Bawah Lidah – Di Tengah Selat”, commences on Saturday, July 25th at SARENG Gallery.

In collaboration with Mizuma Gallery, SARENG presents Gilang’s new series of oil paintings, which explores the interplay between humanity and nature, memory and remnant, and the unspoken stories hidden beneath the surface of everyday life. The exhibition draws on poetic symbolism, cultural references, and the artist’s personal reflections to invite viewers into spaces of quiet negotiation—between seen and unseen, past and present, land and sea.

SARENG, in partnership with Patani Artspace, organised a six-day field trip for resident artists to Pattani, Thailand, as part of the ILTIZAM Seni Art Residency Programme Cycle 4/2026. This initiative aims to promote creative exchange, cultural immersion, and to build connections within the Southeast Asian art community.

During their stay, the artists volunteered at the biennale art festival, Kenduri Seni Patani, assisting both local and international artists with the setup of art installations. They also participated in studio visits and went on a 'Chole' motorcycle sidecar tour to explore exhibition sites around Pattani. Additionally, the artists engaged in various festival activities and cultural performances, which deepened their appreciation of local traditions and strengthened their connections with the Pattani community.

We are pleased to announce the selection of five resident artists for the ILTIZAM Seni Art Residency Programme Cycle 4/2026, established by Ekuinas. Congratulations to Hanisah Zulkifli, Adam Badruddin Syah, Yasir Ismail, Fitriah Roslan, and Haikal Afandi, who will participate in a comprehensive four-month residency programme in Karak, Pahang.

This residency programme is guided by Syukur Ali, in collaboration with curator Azzad Diah and mentors Raduan Man, Kim Ng and Edroger Rosili, who will provide support throughout the residency and share their expertise and insights with the resident artists.

During the residency, the artists will participate in discussions, mentorship sessions, and dedicated studio time to expand their creative boundaries and enhance their artistic practices. They will also attend masterclasses aimed at developing both soft skills and essential technical competencies. These experiences will foster confidence, intellectual curiosity, self-awareness, and self-criticism, better preparing them for the realities of a professional artistic career. This collaborative environment is designed to amplify diverse artistic perspectives and inspire meaningful dialogue.

We look forward to supporting these artists on their creative journey as they develop new works to be showcased in a group exhibition at SARENG Gallery in 2027.

The countdown has begun for the highly anticipated biennale art festival, "Kenduri Seni Patani," organised by Patani Artspace. This year’s theme, "RASO: The Art of Essential Feeling," promises an exceptional exploration of emotions through artworks by local and international artists. Mark your calendars for July 4-5, 2026, and prepare to immerse yourself in creativity and inspiration.

Situated in Pattani, a confluence of diverse cultures, this exhibition delves into the concept of “raso.” This term — the Patani-Malay variation of the word “rasa” — conveys far more than merely "taste" or "feeling." It embodies the manner in which we perceive, comprehend, and connect to the deepest truths of existence.

The concept traces its origins to Sanskrit, where it signifies vital essence and aesthetic flavour. In the Malay-Indonesian context, "rasa" expands and enriches this notion to represent a significant cultural framework, linking the physical senses with the spiritual self.

When we discuss "rasa," we refer to the flavour of a delectable spice, the sensation of diverse textures, or the experience of warmth. Furthermore, we articulate the emotions residing within our hearts — our joy (rasa gembira), our sorrow (rasa sedih), our profound longing (rasa rindu), among others. Most critically, "rasa" embodies our inner intuition alongside our capacity for empathy and kindness (timbang rasa). It represents genuine, intrinsic knowledge — the very essence of our consciousness.

This exhibition invites the participating artists to explore how this core human truth is expressed in art. The art displayed here is a journey into the essential feeling that makes us all human.
