Lot Essay
Artistic duo Indieguerillas draw their influences from street art, pop culture, animation and graphic design, as well as elements of their traditional Javanese storytelling heritage, they envision our contemporary world as a psychedelic artifice anchored by popular metaphors and passing momentary desires.
Untitled (Lot 233) showcases Indieguerillas' characteristic influences, with bright, populist motifs, and sleight-of-hand figures which pop out from unexpected crevices of the composition. The frenetic quality of the entire composition underscores the hedonistic overdrive of our current reality, where the aphorism of "live fast, die young" has been taken to new extremes. Indieguerillas are masters at assembling iconic representations of the dynamic excess found within contemporary culture, starkly provocative yet strikingly resonant.
