For the exhibition Selfie Frame, the javanese home will be transformed into a space designed for women. Each room will be furnished with decorative frames and mirrors with selected quotations from Nyai Ontosoroh, Cut Nyak Dien, Susi Pudjiastuti. These site-specific installations are works of art in their own right, with their specific function devoted to making selfies.
Self-presentation and selfies are new, emerging tools for women, providing them with opportunities to gain subjectivity. The project draws on selfie-feminist theory, whereby selfie can become a medium of empowering women and raising self-awareness (as a Zofia Krawiec or Audrey Wollen). Social media as another language of interaction are essential to the project. Throughout the exhibition, every day the visitors will have an opportunity to take shoots with provided frames and post them to social media.

In cooperation with: Arinanda Gilang, Ari Ahmad Zulfahmi, Ki Sutung Riyadi, Zofia Krawiec, Adam Gruba

Event is a part of Jogja Art Weeks
