Tromarama

Engaging with the notion of hyperreality in the digital age, Tromarama explores the interrelationship between the virtual and the physical worlds. Initiated as a collective in 2006 in Bandung, Indonesia, Febie Babyrose, Ruddy Hatumena and Herbert Hans create works that combine video, installation, computer programming and public participation depicting the influence of digital media on society’s perception of its surroundings. Channelling language, text, wit, sequence as well as interaction through their varied practice, Tromarama reflects on the cornerstones of Indonesia’s political and cultural environment, a form of perceptive engagement that applies globally.
