Originally from Padang, Indonesia.
Graduated from Institut Seni Indonesia (ISI) Yogyakarta
In the eyes of Meistoria Ve, there is a certain order to life, which to many, without the hindsight of closer observation, may seem chaotic on the surface. Through the meticulous observations that this artist makes about the world around him, beautiful studies of the very matter that make up our existence emerge.
Whether they are studies of wood, water, elastics, or even cosmic matter, Ve sees order within the chaos that our casual gaze may take for granted. And it is this order that the artist lays down on canvas, as though he were a scribe recording snapshots of the very processes of life in action.
For these processes to happen, a certain amount of space becomes necessary. This we begin to realize when our mind extrapolates the intricacies and visual interactions we see in Ve’s works beyond the canvas.
These processes, while they may appear as abstractions visually, have tangible analogs to our human experience, expressing the familiar notions of harmony, hope and love.
Ve’s works are currently on display as part of the Yogya Invasion 01: Three Degrees of Abstraction group exhibition, that will be on until July 31, 2012.
