Abstract
Through his paintings, Digdo Irianto unveils figures of Javanese women showing an expressive, bold and open face and body gestures. His imagination was based on a cultural change observed in Surakarta society which is heavily dominated by syncretic characteristics, evoking Javanese traditional cultures and modern culture. His conceptual imagination indicates his desire to put a woman in an honorable position where the body can be interpreted as a medium meant to sow and revive a dry soul following the presence of image embedded in modern life. Javanese women can synergize the spirit and essence of Javanese cultural values which uphold philosophical ??and practical, materialistic modern culture.
