Prihatmoko Moki
Works and lives in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. He obtained his BFA from Indonesian Institute of Fine-Art, majoring in the Printmaking Department in 2009. He has been focused with printmaking mediums from silkscreen to batik, which he extended into comic, mural, music and performances. His main interest in printmaking/silkscreen technique is departing from the idea of artworks as vernacular objects that produce in multiple copies and the notion of originality and copy, since the ability of printmaking to produce works in edition. In his recent works, he is interested in historical views, which are human made, in which create a tension and blurriness between fiction and reality. Departing from these he uses historical myth as a tool to discuss and re-questioning the social contemporary situations. In his project he prefers to approach the issue in satire which purpose is to generate broader arguments.
His solo exhibition including Collage & Destroy (2022), Complex Terrors, Yogyakarta (2021), Prajurit Kalah Tanpa Raja, Yogyakarta (2016 & 2017), Forget Me Not Yogyakarta (2015), Power of the Sun, Yogyakarta (2012), and KW 2, Yogyakarta (2011).
Since 2006, he joined the multidisciplinary art project PUNKASILA, initiated by Danius Kesminas (AU) and had several shows in Indonesia, Australian, Lithuania and Cuba. In 2013 together with Malcolm Smith (AU), Rudi Hermawan and Sukma Smita he founded Krack! Studio based in Yogyakarta, the studio and gallery focusing on printmaking. In 2017 together with Enka Komariah, Vendy Methodos, Anjali Nayenggita, Ipeh Nur (2019-2022) and Dian Suci (2017-2022) formed an art collective called GEGERBOYO. It is an artist collective whose works reflect critically on social and political phenomena by taking subjects from everyday life. Their work is inspired by Javanese culture and traditions, to reveal contemporary urban life.
