-no.3 from top left : Sebelah mata (One eye) - describe the culture of the Cirebon Mask Dance which began to be forgotten by their own community, but Cirebon Mask Dance still struggling to maintain the charm; by rege indrastudianto.

-no.4 from the middle left : The true hidden face and the mask of Jakarta - through this work i was trying to describe my feelings about Jakarta. everybody knows that under the mask there is always a true hidden face. it took me some time to start loving and enjoying living here, because Jakarta's face is covered by this grey mask of pollution, traffic, skyscrapers. BUT if you look more deep, you can see beautiful colourful, things and that's the true hidden face of Jakarta i love; by Anastasia Yakubenka.

-no.5 from the middle left : Panji from Venus - figures show the other side of Panji different - mixing of culture, gender, fashion, icon to icon in a look so thats why i called "Panji from Venus"

-no.6 from the middle left : untittled

-no.7 from the lower left : "Mask" is everything popular - Most of the people trying to become the "gold", and each individual's ambition to achieve the golden point. Each felt that he was different from the others. Trends, popularity, daily, and the professions is a mask that creates space between people. Forming a difference in degree of their race, position, high and low, rich and poor, good and bad.
In this work, we put aside the meaning and significance of the mask banner itself, and view it from our side as part of a community that lives and bodies in the city of Jakarta. Mask in this work, we mean as a reflection of urban society. by Aditya Wijanarko dan Cempaka Surahkusumah

-no.8 from the lower left : Refugees - Capturing the well-founded fears of a group of people being persecuted for reason of race, religion, and nationality REFUGEES . Apart from physical wounds or starvation, this creation is inspired by the large percentage of people that develop symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder or depression. Projecting a variety of victims emotions, brings this refugees life story back, living in a new environment and challenging situations; by Rama Dauhan

-no.9 from the lower left : Didik Nini Thowok.

sorry for lots information, a bit boring or maybe more eh? :D

lets sing a song about mask :
I got across the earth, I get to rule the day
I got to paint the sky, I get for you glow
But I got stepped away
If you're cheating me here
I can walk away
I can about it

Reff:
But open your mask first
Open your mask first
Let me see your color
I'll see your color

You can enlightening me, you can make me glow
You can be me dead, you can hitamkan rainbow
But I got stepped away
If you're cheating me here
I can walk away
I can about it.

have a super and lovely sunday all!
