“Laboratorium Suara Masa Lalu”
A lecturer who dreamed of becoming a comic artist since childhood, Rega is a Bandung-based artist who processes her love of drawing through installations, animations, fictional narratives, and even sounds. For her, creating art is the most enjoyable way to process her curiosity and anxiety about the future. When not traveling for residencies or exhibitions, Rega can be found in Bojongkoneng, Bandung, busy feeding her cats.
Continuing his ongoing research, in this open studio, Rega will explore how a city’s history shapes its relationship with music—searching for and reconstructing traces of sounds that exist but are not recorded in history.
*Open Studio is one of the programs of Cemeti Institute for Art and Society that focuses on artistic experimentation and the development of discourse around works currently being developed by artists. This program represents a new form of utilizing Cemeti’s Stockroom space, held regularly and open to artists, either by invitation or through an open proposal.

Biography
Rega Ayundya Putri Rega Ayundya Putri percaya bahwa seni harus didorong oleh kesenangan dan rasa ingin tahu layaknya anak kecil. Setelah pernah bermimpi menjadi seniman komik, praktik seninya berkembang di sekitar penceritaan spekulatif, animasi, instalasi, suara, dan pertunjukan. Didorong oleh kecemasannya akan masa depan, Rega membangun realitas alternatif (seringkali dengan bahan-bahan bekas), mengaburkan batas antara fakta dan fiksi sambil mempertanyakan absurditas dunia modern.
Rega memegang gelar Sarjana dan Magister Seni Rupa dari Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) dan telah berpartisipasi dalam beberapa program residensi internasional, termasuk: Delfina Foundation di London, Inggris (2026); Horanggasy Creative Studio di Gwangju, Korea Selatan (2024); Program Seniman-dalam-Residensi ke-22 Museum Seni Asia Fukuoka, di Fukuoka, Jepang (2024); dan Koganecho International Artist Network di Yokohama, Jepang (2023). Praktik seninya juga telah ditampilkan dalam publikasi seperti Ballpoint Art (Sandu Publishing, Hong Kong).
Saat ini berdomisili di Bandung, Indonesia, Rega membagi waktunya antara mengajar di universitas seni lokal, mengembangkan animasi baru, dan merawat kucing-kucingnya.
