MATAGLAP

A word consisting of the indonesian words “mata”, meaning eye, and “glap”, meaning darkness.
An ongoing project exploring my identity through art. Under this alias I post work, experiments and papers in which I develop my own style and express my identity. As a descendant of Alifuran storytellers and an avid listener of consious rap I always feel the need to tell stories. MATAGLAP is the product of my heritage, my passions and my interests. Its an unrefined look into my mind.

Happy new year✨

Here's some nice and paradoxal indigenous mechs. Sworn to protect nature from the forces that created them.

I call upon all artists to claim their space in digital #AIart. AI in and of itself is unbiased. It turns biased when it's fed colonial and western (read white) perspectives. It's our responsibility to use AI for good, for art, for connection

Looking for creatives that want to showcase their work in a Virtual exposition somewhere in the future.
Working on a virtual reality environment full of moluccan myths and symbols. It'll be a dreamworld in which everyone's experience is different. I let my dreams inspire me. Thanks to @marlesyy for teaching me stuff about using dreams as your main creative inspiration. It's a journey and I'm learning a lot about who I am and want to be. Want to be part of this journey as a creative or otherwise? DM me!
