SEE March 2024

Happy Chinese New Year, Happy Valentine’s Day, and all other happy days there are in February.

During the second month of 2024, VCD UPH had the opportunity to host various and diverse activities, which can be seen and compiled in this edition of SEE. Even with the increased number of activities documented, these aren’t all the activities that happened during the whole month. Hopefully, the next publication may be able to document all the activities reported back to the department.

In the even semester, VCD UPH had the pleasure of inviting alumni, such as Regina Susanto from Graphic Design 2018, and also Daniel Purnama from Animation 2013. Both shared their working experiences after graduating with their juniors. Other opportunities that VCD UPH had included collaborating with KIEHL, collaborating with Tata Rupa, and also visiting Institut Kesenian Jakarta.

Lastly, we feature the work of Aurellia Levina, Dafy Bintang Natanael, and Tiara Kiatama from their Photography 2 class, which was also featured in the World Biennial of Student Photography 2023.

We hope that as we see, we may learn more and be humbled to learn more and more.

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.
