KRONJOT is a sculpture series made of local materials as it travels with the show BEHIND THE TERRAIN.
The sculpture explores an appropriated re-appropriation of the saddle bag into the Javanese Kronjot and links it to the reconfiguration of products for the consumerist market—especially within Indonesia’s large furniture-making industry— stripped of purpose but pumped with style.
Kronjot I is made of steel, aluminium pipes, and javanese teakwood. and was made for the exhibition BEHIND THE TERRAIN in Jogjakarta, Indonesia, Studio Kalahan, 22. November - 8. December 2016
