Segment 2:
The Creative Space
Sha takes art- not just as a visual nor medium, but also as a creative approach in seeing, working and learning. Most people would see Sha for her Visual Arts, because most of her hobby sketching and her joy in painting. However, there is so much more behind a medium and a “concept”. Sha tends to give depth in almost everything around her, wanting everything to have a specific meaning in her life without wasting it. Therefore her questions about the world, her existential beliefs and curiosity about the things around her is transformed into artworks as an alternative of verbally explaining her ideas to others.
This segment includes many of her artworks, hobbies as well as her creative flow as an individual. Most of Sha’s works are visual arts, whereas it’s neat and very much self-explanatory. Yet, there are times her works are impulsive and complex for both medium and concept. An example of her works that collectively explains her curiosity towards her own origins is Sha’s Linocut Artwork “Influential Figures of Mines” an emotional and spiritual artwork honouring both of her artistic & philosophical Grandfathers (Gepa Imam Soepardi & Kakek Houtman Zainal Arifin) who has passed away. Though Sha has lived along side of their history, they’re legacy as well as they’re words before they passed away- has given off a different meaning, leading her thriving to find out more about what she doesn’t know about herself.
Aside from paintings and fine arts- what Sha is most known for, she develops many other interests as she grows. Finding new things relevant to her and enjoyable as much as the other things she likes such as her explorative journey with design, graphics, multimedia, and using design as a structural thinking process to create. As well as her personal hobby of writing for herself, personal analysis, researches and previous essays she enjoyed writing- regarding to interesting topics for her school and personal works about; philosophical virtues, values, her dream as the younger generation of the nation, her existential questions about the things around her and so much more.
