“Ik ben skies/fariz // not<br />
ur type of artist. Living<br />
in the dream while using<br />
photography as a form of<br />
therapy, crafting artistic<br />
creations from paper and<br />
transforming them into<br />
something madness.<br />
[I try to] tell and make<br />
people realize about<br />
different perspectives in<br />
this world, and also to<br />
care more about your<br />
surroundings. cuz art is<br />
not only a medium but it’s<br />
a mindset”<br />
Fariz<br />
For me, Fariz represents<br />
the sort of hard-working,<br />
relentless creative<br />
energy so typical of<br />
the Indo art scene. His<br />
photographs - typically<br />
night scenes, with their<br />
long exposure glaring<br />
lights or mysterious<br />
tranquility, capture<br />
urban ennui beautifully.<br />
But his perormance like<br />
interventions - artworks<br />
pasted ad-hoc in the<br />
physical environment<br />
with no announcement<br />
or preconceived<br />
audience - are an act of<br />
anti-art that hint at the<br />
fire in the belly of this<br />
otherwise tranquil artist<br />
