About the artwork

Adi Gunawan’s sculpture Wanita di Kursi, or Woman In a Chair, features a woman reclining comfortably while sitting in a chair with her arms resting behind her head. Despite being in the nude, the bulbous figure is utterly relaxed and unabashed, as she displays her figure fully for the viewer. The curves of her body are accentuated and create a sense of fluidity, as Gunawan skillfully expresses the grace of the human form, through his signature style of rounded bodies.



About the artist

Adi was born in Yogyakarta in 1974, Indonesia and received his education at Institut Seni Indonesia, Yogyakarta. In his symbolic sculptures, Adi invokes euphoria and the significance of animals in his work due to his cultural background of growing up in an agrarian society. He uses his cultural positioning as a tool to visualize motions, gestures, characters and expressions of various subjects that he sculpts. He then conveys constructed meaning which, in and through his forms, figures and compositions, puts forth the issue of a mystical relationship between animals and humans. Adi’s highest accolade thus far was representing Indonesia at the Beijing Olympics 2008 Fine Arts Exhibition, where he was bestowed the further honor of an Olympic Torch Award. His sculpture toured Hong Kong, the United States, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland and many other countries.
