Festival Bebas Batas

Festival Bebas Batas (which roughly translates as ‘free of boundaries’, or ‘unlimited’) will be Indonesia’s first festival of brilliant art by disabled people.

The festival is the brainchild of a group of artists, curators and activists, including artist Hana Madness, who visited the Unlimited Festival in London in 2016 and was inspired to create a festival with the same spirit in Indonesia.

Taking place at the National Gallery in Jakarta on 12-29 October 2018, the festival is designed to complement the Asian Para Games, which will be held in Jakarta, also in October.

The festival is a collaboration between Galeri Nasional Indonesia, Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan, Art Brut Collective, and British Council Indonesia.

That's me, when I gave a speech at the opening ceremony of the Festival Bebas Batas. I conveyed how I feel proud because this Festival can be realized in Indonesia and also will be a new history of Arts & Disability in Indonesia.

Along with Director of NoMa Museum Japan, Director of the British Council Indonesia, Art Director of The Ministry National and Culture of Indonesia, and The Curator of Festival Bebas Batas.

In front of my new set of painting called "Emotionally Unstable Family"

Got a chance to meet Director General of the Ministry National Education and Culture of Indonesia, Bapak Hilmar Farid.
