Gandari Irianti

Born in Cimahi, Indonesia, in 1999, I currently live and work in Jakarta. My artistic practice explores space, human relationships, and the psychological dimensions of lived experience, particularly in quiet, transitional moments that carry an underlying emotional tension.

Through metaphorical visual language, imagined landscapes, symbolic figures, and ambiguous spatial structures, I investigate themes of identity, memory, alienation, vulnerability, hope, and the complexities of the human psyche. My works often position figures within synthetic and surreal environments, creating a dialogue between the human presence and the structures that surround it.

A distinctive feature of my practice is my layered approach to materiality, which extends beyond the conventions of traditional two-dimensional painting. Through the interplay of layers, space, and form, I create visual depth and spatial ambiguity, inviting viewers to reflect on the relationship between physical environments and inner emotional landscapes.

My works offer contemplative spaces where the boundaries between reality and imagination become fluid, allowing room for personal interpretation and individual emotional experiences.
