Wayang Lostang

Lostang Extended is the full version of this work. This work is a mixture of Javanese Shadow Puppet and animation. This work offers a non-narrative story structure. The audience is free to create their own personal interpretation with pleasure. I made this work at the invitation of an experimental art group in Japan called Corona Group. They gave the title International Wayang Exchange Project. The initial idea was to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic situation in 2021, which was very difficult to create an artwork directly in the audience. Artwork through digital media and the internet is a reasonable choice to do. Thank’s to Ananto Wicaksono, Yuri Nishida, Masafumi Yamamoto, and Corona Group.
