Roby Dwi Antono - BULAN Date of creation: 2022 Medium: Silkscreen with curable UV inks on Somerset paper Edition: 200 Size: 50 x 44 cm Condition: In perfect conditions and never framed This limited edition artwork, published in 2022, features a meticulous 25-layer screen print on 410gsm Somerset Tub Sized Radiant White paper, using UV-curable inks for exceptional depth. Hand-signed and numbered, it is part of an exclusive edition of 200 copies. CLARA is a limited-edition artwork by Indonesian artist Roby Dwi Antono, whose work lies between pop surrealism and contemporary mythological storytelling. In this piece, Antono once again brings to life his iconic characters with deep, enigmatic gazes, encapsulating the blend of innocence, nostalgia, and melancholy that defines his artistic universe. Antono’s work is distinguished by its refined aesthetic and its ability to evoke complex emotions through figures that seem suspended between tenderness and introspection. With influences ranging from Renaissance painting to pop surrealist art, the artist plays with the duality of the delicate and the unsettling, the ephemeral and the eternal. CLARA is a limited edition of 50 pieces, each hand-signed and numbered by the artist, reinforcing its exclusivity as a collector’s piece. This work stands out for its meticulous execution and its smooth, polished surface, which enhances the subtlety of the character’s features. Its expression conveys a sense of introspective calm, with a gaze that seems to hold memories and hidden thoughts. The figure of CLARA follows Antono’s signature aesthetic, blending childhood fragility with sculptural solemnity—elements that have become hallmarks of his work. With CLARA, Roby Dwi Antono continues to expand his artistic universe, reinforcing his ability to transform nostalgia into art. This piece perfectly synthesizes his visual language, where beauty and melancholy intertwine to create a figure that transcends time and space. An evocative and timeless work, inviting contemplation and a deep connection with the artist’s unique sensibility. ABOUT THE ARTIST Roby Dwi Antono is a contemporary Indonesian artist born in 1990 in Semarang, Indonesia. His work is characterized by a fusion of pop surrealism with references to classical mythology, popular culture, and magical realism. Through his paintings and drawings, Antono creates a visual universe where tenderness and eeriness coexist in a nostalgic and dreamlike aesthetic. From an early age, Antono showed a great inclination toward art, exploring different media and techniques. His interest in illustration led him to develop a unique visual language, influenced by artists such as Mark Ryden and Yoshitomo Nara, whose styles share a similar emotional sensitivity and focus on melancholic characters with large, expressive eyes. Before establishing himself in the contemporary art world, Antono worked as an illustrator, a stage that allowed him to refine his mastery of drawing and composition. Soon, his talent attracted attention within the Indonesian art scene, leading him to exhibit in local galleries. His success in Indonesia marked the beginning of his international recognition, and his works began to be presented in cities such as Tokyo, Los Angeles, New York, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, consolidating him as one of the most prominent emerging figures in Asian art. The Symbolism in His Work One of the most distinctive aspects of Antono’s art is his use of symbolism, with constant references to mythology, childhood, memory, and the duality between the ephemeral and the eternal. His characters are often children or hybrid figures combining human and animal elements, evoking a sense of nostalgia and exploring themes of identity and transformation. The influence of nature is evident in his compositions, with representations of fantastic creatures, exotic flora, and celestial elements, reinforcing the dreamlike and mysterious quality of his works. Color and texture play a fundamental role in his style. His palette is rich in pastel tones, contrasted with vibrant details that add depth and dynamism to his compositions. His meticulous and detailed technique allows him to create immersive atmospheres, where light and shadow play an essential role in the visual narrative of his pieces. Exploring New Media Although Antono is primarily known for his paintings, he has also explored other media such as sculpture and digital printing. The three-dimensionality of sculpture has allowed him to expand his visual language, giving his characters a physical presence that further highlights their expressiveness. Likewise, his forays into graphic design and illustration have allowed his style to transcend the canvas and reach new audiences. Additionally, the artist has participated in collaborations with design and fashion brands, bringing his aesthetic to other formats and expanding the interaction of his work with contemporary visual culture. This multidisciplinary approach has contributed to his growth within the art market and has established him as a key figure within the pop surrealism movement. The Impact of His Art The rise of Roby Dwi Antono has coincided with the growing interest in contemporary Asian art, where his work has been well received by both collectors and critics. His ability to create an emotional connection with the viewer, through images full of symbolism and emotion, has made him an influential artist in the global art scene. As his career continues to expand, Antono keeps exploring new forms of expression while preserving the essence of his unique visual universe. His work represents a balance between classical and contemporary, fantasy and reality, offering a unique vision of 21st-century art.
