“Ornamen, Memori, dan Identitas”

Zuraisa is a visual artist whose practice focuses on the intersection of ornamentation, memory, and identity through the medium of ceramics. In her works, she explores form and pattern as traces of personal and collective experience, and investigates the relationships between history, space, and culture through material experimentation.

In this open studio, Zuraisa provides access to her creative process through collaborative learning sessions at Lukita Ceramic Studio and Bakar Tanah Lab in Yogyakarta. Through this space, she invites participants and visitors to engage closely with her process — shaping, firing, and weaving stories formed from clay.

*Open Studio is one of Cemeti – Institute for Art and Society program that focuses on artistic experimentation, and the development of discourse on works by artists. This program is one of the new forms of using the Cemeti Stockroom space which is held regularly and is open to artists, either by invitation or submission of proposals.
