Offerings by the Dozen
This is the first project of this scale where photographer Tjandra Hutama collaborates intensely with other art disciplines. Beginning with the initial exploration through the installation and portrait of Manus Origin to developing his visual commentary within this narrative.
‘I chose to centre my message around ‘offering’. Dian had several visualisations that may represent consciousness through Tri Pramana. Eric Buvelot’s writing on Dian’s work mentions “it is what we are taking and what we are giving”. This resonates strongly with the message in my work.’
‘As human beings, I think we have an obligation. To who one may ask? I think it is reasonable to think we have gratitude to Nature, to other living beings including plants and animals. I try to visualise what it may have been like long ago, perhaps during some prehistoric time.. perhaps they were still occupied with survival.’ ~ Tjandra Hutama
