It’s been a long time I haven’t written “duniariri”. Busy, error on my computer, lazyness… ehehehe…Finally I’m writing, it’s beautiful morning, odd feelings.

 Where do I start first?Hm.. about my job. I’m no longer in Tonyraka. Yes, I quit the job considering my family. Tonyraka needs me either my family, so family comes first. Then I work in Forrest Club and BICS (Bali International Communications Service), both are belong to my sister, PW. So… here I am

It’s pretty hard for me leaving Tonyraka. I left an-emerging-gallery in Bali. Say I’m crazy, but I am. I take risks therefore I live!

TR Story; part 1: The Meeting & The White Office

6 month ago

The email were sent. I emailed to Gaya Art Space and Tonyraka Art Gallery. While waiting for the reply, I went to East Java for praying with my father and my auntie. I came one week later, my email was replied. Tonyraka Art Gallery replied my email twice. As soon we made an appointment for an job interview.

On ‘the day’, I came to the gallery. There was a beautiful woman at the garden when I arrived. She’s Ibu Ratih. She was my-upcoming-boss at Tonyraka. She didn’t asked much at the interview, I thought she’s already interested with my resume, though I had no job experience, but she thought I was able to handling exhibitions, that’s the most important thing (fiuh..)… apparently later I knew that she was Pak Tony’s wife; Bapak Anak Agung Bagus Tony Hartawan is the owner of Tonyraka Art Gallery. When I saw him for the first time, he totally didn’t as I imagined before, I thought he was a Chinese, hehe.. apparently he is a Balinese.

Bambang Supriyono and Prana Agung Exhibition

Displaying is one of my favorite activities (though somethimes I feel not really good on it)!And yesterday I displayed paintings in Inspirational Space located at Intercontinental Bali Resort, Jimbaran. Yes, my gallery (I mean, the gallery which I work to) hold a little exhibition there. This time, we presents Bambang Supriyono and Prana Agung, duo decorative painters who fall in love with the beauty of women.

Bambang Supriyono was born in Yogyakarta, on 29 January 1961. He finished his study at Sekolah Tinggi Seni Rupa Indonesia(SSRI; Indonesia School of Fine Arts) in 1981 afterward he moved to Bali in 1982. He was a student of Dullah-an Indonesia master of painting on Sanggar Pejeng. He began to paint in decorative style in 1991 and bend the style until now, while Prana Agung is a painter who was born in Solo, Central Java on October 5, 1954. He studied at Sekolah Seni Rupa Indonesia (SSRI; Indonesia School of Fine Arts) in Yogyakarta as well.

They both fall in love with the beauty of woman, but Bambang’s painting portrays Balinese girls’ religious life activities such as making and offering the ceremony offering things. While Bambang exploring Balinese girls’ religious life activities, Prana more pay attention to women’s activities and gestures. ’His women’ is more like typical chinese-japanese women, yellow skin women. All of ‘his women’ are closed-eyes -never stare one to another like live in their own world and mind though they do activity together.

I really enjoyed displaying this time, the paintings look in harmony with the interior. Mrs. Ratna, the Inspirational Space supervisor was glad as well. Thank you for the team, Pak De-the driver, Pak Nesa and Komang Koplo - the staff.

Ibu Ratih, my boss, didn’t joined in b’coz she had a flu-fever so I took some pictures to show to her. Fortunately she was satesfied with my works after I showed the pictures. Yippee…

Bambang Supriyono and Prana Agung Painting Exhibition, start on Monday, February 16, 2009 in Inspiration Space at Intercontinental Bali Resort. This exhibition will be available for viewing until Monday, March 9, 2009.

Another Boring Weekend

Another boring weekend. Here I am. Sitting at my office waiting for 5. 5 what? 5 o’clock, it’s end-office-hour. I was waiting for my friend for an lunch appointment when she cancelled it at 11.55. Oh shit. My boss persuade me to had lunch but I refused it bcoz I remembered I had a-lunch-appointment with her. Hmphhhhhh…

Remember it’s Saturday, I looked movies schedule on newspaper. Twilight on Theater 1 and The Transporter 3 at Theater 2. Twilight… I’d like to watch it again! Or maybe just buy the DVD. Pirated DVD. It’s just Rp. 10.000; or about 1 USD. Ooops!!! Maybe I’ll watch The Transporter 3. The Transporter 1 and 2 was a great action movie I hope the third sequel is as good as before.

I have no willingness to read English book, just read about 2 paragraph then I stopped. Ough.. maybe bcoz it’s raining so I become lazy. Iehehehe.. Liar. Raining plus listening Michael Buble’s song. What an sentimental ambience… ;P

Ah..The phone is ringing but I didn’t pick up the phone. I am too lazy to talk, fortunately I am not lazy to write. Sorry, I’m in the mood for writing, babe.

Who was Said “It’s Romantic When The Rain Comes?”

It happened today, this morning when I entered my office, I smell something ugly. I looked for the source of the smell outside my office; at little river and the rice fields, but I didn’t find it, so I closed the windows and started to work.

It’s raining all the time, and I enjoyed the ambiance hehe..rain makes me lazy.. hihihi.. After having lunch, I sightseeing at the rice fields as usual and looked something at the river…

Ah… now I knew the bad-smell-source! It came from a dead-body of a bird (dunno wat kind of bird, maybe it’s a chicken?!?! but let say it’s a bird b’coz chicken is a kind of bird too, huh?). It stuck at a small branch of a plant beside the river. Uh…Poor bird.. I couldn’t do anything to cut the branch to make the bird-dead-body flow with the water, also not to call Pak Nesa (a garderner at my office) b’coz it’s raining! I couldn’t be egoist, right?

Then I looked around. Hmph…. garbage was everywhere!!! Plastics, paper, “banten”,,,,, Water brought them to the ricefield. I was grateful that the farmer already harvested the paddy. It’s such really an ironic scene.

hmph… cannot say anything but: WHO SAID “ITS ROMANTIC WHEN THE RAIN COMES?”
