Bones 2095: Vivid Afterlife by Universitas Pelita Harapan

Description : “Bones 2095: Vivid Afterlife” is an evocative installation that thrusts the concept of “trash to art” into the future, marrying the indie spirit with the vibrant urban life of New York City. This piece utilizes discarded materials such as plastic waste, bottles, fabrics, as well as metals like wire and aluminum foil, capturing the essence of New York’s consumable culture in food and fashion. “Bones 2095” is a testament to the power of individual expression and the potential for sustainability within urban environments. Through the use of striking neon colors, it pays homage to New York’s graffiti scene, embodying bold and vibrant expressions of art. The title and the work itself evoke a futuristic perspective on ecological awareness and artistic creativity, portraying a vivid afterlife where discarded materials are reborn into a dazzling expression of indie and urban aesthetics.
