INDIEGUERILLAS

indieguerillas is a husband-and-wife artist duo consisting of Dyatmiko Lancur Bawono (b. 1975 in Kudus, Indonesia) and Santi Ariestyowanti (b. 1977 in Semarang, Indonesia). Founded in 1999 as a graphic design firm, indieguerillas’s philosophy of ‘constantly in guerrilla to find new possibilities’ has led them to become full-time artists in 2007. Nevertheless, design still plays a very important role as it allows for them to explore the use of unconventional media and techniques as part of their artistic statement. In addition to their proficiency at visual effects and inter-media experimentation, their works are also recognized for their folklore influences. Through their multidisciplinary works, they talk about their reality as Javanese people who live amidst a wave of global consumerism that demands everything to be instantaneous. indieguerillas lives and works in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
