Mata Perempuan is again participating in this year’s Jakarta Biennale XIV 2011 with the theme titled Maximum City. Highlighting what is considered the maximum point that occurs under the diversity and pressures of the big city.
This year the participation of Mata Perempuan carries a different weight on the exhibition with the focus that not only showcases an array of photographers, but also a deeper exploration through the curatorial process involved, a process that both complements and enriches the final artwork through their bold and narrative text.
Through the eyes of 6 talented female, Irma Chantily, Maria Lasakajaya Sari, Natasha Gabriella Tontey, Mira Amira, Dian Rosita and Novianti Sisilia they are given a chance to translate their interpretation of the theme and are involved either on the curational process of selecting the photographer for their work or haven chosen the opportunity to make their own artist statement.
