Project_ISM - erotic art & public nudity

TIKAL

ARTISTS STATEMENT

Dah lama aku ngerasa kayak gue terlalu lama makan waktu di dalam otak/mind gue dan kurang 'hadir'/present di badan gue secara global. Dari kegiatan2 gue sampe sekarang seperti aktifitas gue di bidang pijat dan juga di pendalaman pelajaran gue dalam ilmu perdukunan maupun di bidang seni dan ilmu holistik gue itu udah belajar menghadapi diri gue secara total (mind/body/spirit). Nah ditambah lagi dengan Ishotmyself, nyambung dah, lagi2 gue dapet kesempatan untuk mengembalikan kehadiran (being present) gue dalam badan gue. Gue udah seneng banget bisa betul2 'menduduki' diri gue karena dah lama gue merasa something missing atau ngerasa 'jauh' dari rumah! Spiritual banget deh. Gue bangga banget ama pelopor2 yang tanggung jawab ama proyek seni ini karena bener2 berpotensi memberi kaum manusia kesempatan unik untuk bertemu dengan sisi kreatif mereka dan yang paling penting itu adalah merasa 'pulang kampung' seperti terjadi kepada gue! dan cuek ama pikiran 'orang2 lain'. Dan juga menunjukkan ketelanjangan itu tidak perlu dipermalukan. Siapa saja yang melihat proyek ini bisa sadar bahwa telanjang itu bisa diekspresikan dan dipromosikan dalam cara2 selain dari bidang pronografi atau 'perversion' seksual (yang menurut gue adalah, dan telah mem 'brain bleach' ('bleach' and not 'wash' because washing is positive) :) Dan menahan atau mengatur cara pikir massa, padahal kita bisa enjoy so much seni2 lain, ada kesatuan dalam keragaman! :) Been feeling too much in the mind and not present enough in my body lately, but thanks to I Shot Myself, amongst other activities I done in the recent past, I found opportunity to bring my awareness and full attention to my body once again. I'm so proud of the pioneers responsible for this art project because it has so much potential to awaken humans to their self in totality, like being offered a unique chance to be creative, and most importantly be present in their bodies and be ok with 'the others'. It also shows that nudity is nothing to be ashamed of. Anyone seeing this project would kind of get it, that nudity doesn't have to be about pornography or only a perverted approach on sexuality, nothing really wrong with that except with the brain 'bleach' (I use the term 'wash' with a positive connotation and actually could say this project could wash the load of crap we are being fed and bleached with chemically) :)
