Artwork location: Indonesia

The artists lives in a village with his family around the outskirts of the city which is cool, beautiful and pleasant. This is where we gathered and enjoyed the very cool and beautiful natural scenery. In a place far from the hustle and bustle of the city. KUSBUDIYANTO feels peace and tranquility when he’s in his village. Because this village is surrounded by vast rice fields, mountains and hills that make it cool, clean rivers that flow beautifully and there are several temples left by our ancestors.
Every morning, the sound of a rooster crowing wakes up the villagers who are still asleep. The sun slowly appears to reveal its bright light. The artist walks out of the house and saw rice fields in front of the farmer's house. There are some rice fields planted with rice that are still green which feels cool, there are some that are yellow which looks beautiful, and there is also a farmer who is plowing his field which has not yet been planted with rice. Apart from that, farmers also look for grass for their pets such as goats, buffalo and cows. In this village, the average population works as farmers because they take advantage of the surrounding conditions without destroying the natural beauty around them. Apart from planting rice, many local residents also plant vegetables such as kale, spinach, cucumber, long beans, etc., and many also plant tubers such as cassava, sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc. and there are also coconut trees, palm trees, and fruits such as mango trees, durian, papaya, bananas, oranges, jackfruit, etc. So, to meet their daily needs they don't have to buy from the market which is quite far away because their needs are already available from their own gardening. Residents in this village are very dependent on the natural surroundings, such as water flowing from the mountains for their daily lives, there are also some who still use latrines because in each resident's house there are several ponds in which there are many different types of fish to meet their needs.

Kusbudiyanto, Cultural heritage
Indonesia  • 1969

Presentation

Kusbudiyanto, a contemporary Indonesian artist, was born in 1969 and lives in Yogyakarta, a city at the heart of artistic creation in Indonesia. From an early age, he developed a passion for depicting rural life, which he began to illustrate through drawing and painting. Before devoting himself fully to his artistic career, he worked in the craft design sector, which refined his sensitivity to materials, textures and cultural symbolism.

Since 2016, Kusbudiyanto has devoted himself exclusively to canvas painting, developing a colorful, pattern-rich figurative style inspired by traditional Javanese culture. His works evoke celebrations such as Satu Suro, symbolic elements such as keris or wayang kulit, and everyday scenes involving humans and animals. Through his compositions, he pays homage to the myths, rituals, and folk tales of the Indonesian archipelago, particularly those of Java.

His style is often described as tropical, both for its vibrant palette and the abundance of plant, floral, and animal motifs. He uses acrylic and mixed media on canvas, constructing detailed scenes where traditions, spirituality, and community life intersect. Children, markets, the forest, and local wildlife are all recurring subjects that reflect a narrative and humanist approach to creation.

Since 2017, Kusbudiyanto has exhibited regularly in Indonesia and internationally, including in Yogyakarta, Singapore, and other Southeast Asian art centers. His work is collected by contemporary Indonesian art enthusiasts who appreciate the cultural richness of his visual narratives.
