Eddie Hara

Eddie Hara (Indonesia)

Eddie Hara is one of the few among the Indonesian contemporary artists, who has succeeded in finding a new visualisation vocabulary. His colourful, layered works are a clash between children's innocence and raw street life, characterised by the urban murals quality. A mixture of fresh wildness of children's mischievous fantasies and the more generic raw art in his works, eventually emerging to a new painting genre. 
Typical of his works are the recurrent figures of jellyfishes, squids, rabbits, the hat-wearing shoes/boots, and human skulls that are scattered flying and tumbling all over his canvas.
