Stop the mindless scrolling and take a closer look at the art. That’s what Indonesian artist Uji “Hahan” Handoko Eko Saputro’s solo presentation at Gajah Gallery invites you to do. In a world ruled by algorithms and screens, Hahan reflects on the state of authenticity, our attention span and the increasingly blurred relationship with the physical and digital worlds.
Titled Days That Slip Away Untouched, the exhibition features paintings, sculptures and sound installations that reference the work of acclaimed painters such as Raden Saleh, Tomás Sánchez, and Walter Spies. Dive into surreal landscapes and inspect uncanny hybrid figures that contrast the fast-paced tech world with the slowness of physical art-making. The exhibition is also a meditation on collaboration, with each artwork born through a shared creative process between Hahan, his studio artisans and the Ace House Collective.
