Feransis (he/him) finds his fascination to create things on paper, such as drawing, watercolor painting, and especially making collages – due to the nature of paper as the most accessible medium for him.
He found the joy of making collages in 2018. Gradually, he has been trying to keep exploring and experiencing every possibility in the collage-making process. Later, he also explores digital collages and 3D objects using his office computer as an extension of his journey in collage-making.
Favorite subjects that mostly appear in his works are comic and cartoon characters, because of his love for reading and collecting comic books, and the vibrant colors he sees on cartoon characters. He uses those comic and cartoon materials and arranges them in meticulous cut and paste techniques that result in a funny and weird composition.
He has been exhibited both in Indonesia and abroad. His first solo exhibition was held in Jakarta in June 2021. Entitled “Tertawa Terbahak-bahak Walau Kekhawatiran Selalu Mengintai Dari Sela-sela Gigi” (“Laughing Out Loud Even Though Worries Always Lurk Between My Teeth”), this exhibition focused on his collage-making process as a coping mechanism from work fatigue, and society’s bizarre behavior.
Based in Jakarta, Indonesia, Feransis is a member of Lab Laba-Laba (Indonesia-based artist collective that focused on experiments with celluloid medium), The Collage Club (an international collage collective), and Kumpul Kolase (a collage group based in Jakarta).
