Indonesian Mixed Media Painting with City Motif, "Failed Architect'"

Painted as a cityscape, Reza Dwakiss's mixed media work imagines a generation of Indonesian people who failed to build the dream they envisioned. The Javanese artist uses a modern, semi-abstract style reminiscent of Neo-Expressionism to create the painting, infusing hope into the canvas with every stroke. "Our building still stands monumental in simple pride, and remains eternally great," he says of his work.
