ARTWORK

 Rice Terrace of Yogyakarta
Size: 76cm x 76cm
Medium: Oil on stretched canvas

Statement:
In this painting, I have sought to capture the timeless beauty and abundance of Yogyakarta's rice terraces. The lush


greenery of the landscape speaks to the earth's fertility and the harmonious relationship between humans and nature. Each curve of the terrace is filled with golden rice, swaying gently in the breeze, hinting at a bountiful harvest.
The scene is alive with the presence of farmers working the land, honoring traditional practices passed down through generations. Their hands, stained with the soil of the fields, move in unison with the buffaloes, guiding the harvest in a rhythm that reflects the heartbeats of their ancestors. In the background, coconut trees stand tall, and clusters of banana plants add to the landscape's abundance, signifying nature's generosity and the farmers' resilience.

This piece is not just a celebration of the rich harvest but also a tribute to the enduring spirit of those who cultivate the land. It is a reminder that harmony with nature yields the greatest rewards, filling both our lives and hearts with prosperity.
