Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artworks presented are a study in contrasts. On the left, a minimalist composition of simple black geometric forms creates a striking visual impact through the interplay of shapes and negative space. In contrast, the work on the right features a detailed collage of various natural elements, such as leaves, feathers, and other organic forms, arranged in a carefully curated display. The stark, monochromatic palette of the left-hand piece is juxtaposed with the more muted, earthy tones of the right-hand artwork. Together, these two pieces demonstrate the diverse range of artistic expression within the contemporary art landscape. ...

Artist

B.1978, Indonesian

Aditya Novali investigates the echoes of memory and the passage of time, using sculptural, mapped, and multimedia forms to reveal how environment and history intertwine. He constructs fragmented, layered structures—often drawing inspiration from discarded temple stones, floor-based sculptures, and wall-maps—to explore histories shaped by absence and the ways remnants of the past resurface in the present. His work emphasizes interconnectivity, survival, and collective memory, uncovering relationships between human habitation, ecological change, and cultural narratives. Novali frequently employs interactive and modular components, inviting viewers to shift perspectives and engage physically with the work. His use of maps, fragments, and layered acrylics creates a sense of spatial and temporal fluidity, destabilizing conventional notions of space, scale, and narrative. Through these strategies, Novali examines how landscapes, both natural and constructed, carry traces of history and human experience, and how they can be reinterpreted to reflect contemporary challenges. By working across multiple media, Novali blends conceptual rigor with poetic resonance. His practice foregrounds the tension between absence and presence, permanence and impermanence, inviting reflection on how collective memory, environmental shifts, and cultural traces shape our understanding of place and identity. ...
