Podcast: Art in Solidarity - Taring Padi’s 25-Year Artistic Evolution
Join us as we explore the transformative power of art through the lens of Taring Padi’s collaborative creations. In this new episode of the Framer Framed podcast, two of the founding members Alexander Supartono and Ucup (Muhammad Yusuf) examine how Taring Padi’s large-scale banners, wayang kardus, and woodcut prints are catalysts for change, driving conversations on social justice and solidarity.
This podcast episode, Art in Solidarity: Taring Padi’s 25-Year Artistic Evolution, is an excerpt from the roundtable conversation that took place during the first public program of Tanah Merdeka exhibition on 25th June. The exhibition, open until September 10th, brings together works by Taring Padi and various collaborators to reflect on the concept of land and its socio-political implications through a cross-cultural network of solidarity. Drawing from the Indonesian expression ‘tanah merdeka’ (liberated land), the exhibition sees land as a broad concept with many complexities.
