JAKARTA - The Figures by Figure art exhibition will be held at A3000 Creative Compound Kemang, South Jakarta. This event calls for artists or creative enthusiasts to show their work. Presenting works of art from various backgrounds, this exhibition can be enjoyed by art enthusiasts from 24-30 June 2023.

The figure is a creative agency team based in Jakarta. As the name suggests, this exhibition event was born out of a figure's interest in artistic ideas, as well as the desire to create and explore themes of body image throughout history and culture, but not exclusively in graphic media and posters with friends in design and fine art. In this exhibition, various artistic interpretations that cross space and time will be presented.

Figures by Figure is inspired by the history of art and culture of the tapestry community in viewing and drawing the shape of the human body. This exhibition invites visitors to reflect on how gender roles, beauty standards, and existing social norms shape the concept of our body or physical form.

"From the various exhibitions that are displayed, we want to provoke the minds of visitors to discuss the complex relationship that humans have with their bodies. This often happens in our environment, or even almost everyone must have experienced this complicated relationship," said Fahmi Maulana and Adellard, Design Lead and Creative Strategist of Figure.

This event is also wide open for artists and creative fans who want to join, contribute, and show their art. Topics that can be discussed include beauty standards, gender roles & body expectations, body modification & adornment, cultural diversity & body shape acceptance, and body politics & campaigns.

Some well-known artists will participate in the Figures by Figure art exhibition, such as Azeten, Nabila Ernada, Miranda Pranoto, Mohammad Taufiq "Emte", Patricia Thebez, and Problema Nona. So, art enthusiasts who want to see their work can visit the Figure by Figure event at the A3000 Creative Compound Kemang.
