Denpasar (Antara Bali) - A young talented Bandung's painter, Yadi Juliansyah, will exhibit his new wave creations tittled "Hanging Out", in Adi's Gallery, Ubud Village, Bali, from November 6 until the end of this year.

"Sleepless nights. Dark desires. Endless thoughts. Rambles about the weird city. Spying on others. Reflections on people. Reflections on society. Reflections on myself. Reflections on nature. Reflections on the nature of myself," as Adi Bachmann, the owner of that gallery told to ANTARA, in Denpasar, Monday morning.

Bachmann commented Juliansyah's paintings as, "Trees cover me, nature protects me, aggressions, depressions, and activities. Helplessness, shouts, screams, whispers, excitement, and also boredom. Introspections.
    
Besides, expressions, paintings in big sizes, paintings in heavy colors, art as communication. "Who really needs art? Who are they? Who am I? Is someone out the-re? Does he want to talk to me? Does she want to talk to me? Do they want to listen to me ...?" said Bachmann.

Replied him, Juliansyah --also known as Ogun-- stated, he din’t have an insight before. But than, in some cases, he felt what the anxiety and tension are and in a way he might devote them by painting. That's why he left school, studying architecture and mechanical engineering.

His painting, as he recalled, when he felt something he could just not work out by chatting with friends - something very disturbing.

"Although sometimes I do not know what is actually bothering me. Than I usually go to a quiet place or I tour around, before I start to paint," said him.

"I learned a lot to deal with my anxieties. There are still some things I’m unable to do and sometimes I am ashamed to call me an artist," said Ogun.

To me, he said, art is a medium, a catharsis, healing and cleansing from all the tension that I experience and which I can not express in other ways than painting.

"When people go different ways, I do not care, I am even more pleased when they interpret differently; art is a form of spiritual gratification … Although sometimes I feel: what I am doing is useless, as well as mountain climbing…," he expressed.(*)
