Scratches spontaneously inspired artists from the fact, along with the emotions of artists as outlined in the media will show an impression. Dark light, strong emotions will be seen in the results set forth in the media. Presenting sketches as a medium to convey the meaning of visible and invisible work is a "heavy" for the artist.
Sketch, the curriculum is "basic" to the development of the painting, a student prior to the painting techniques must exceed / master sketch. Bringing a sketch to interpret social phenomena that grow, it takes courage and instinct for capturing high-existing symptoms, technological developments in relation to the development of digital camera technology a viable alternative to a work believed to be more effective in presenting visual and practical. And here we present a sketch to frame social portrait, could contain valuable messages (worthwhile message). message or intent (message content) is expected not just a story (news content). So the sketch as a medium to convey meaning or content and have artistic hand strokes also through new news
A sketch can be categorized as a representative narrative and abstract expressive. The first, intended to convey a story and contains a dialogue with the observer intellectually and visually, while later, a message or a story if any, into the second and aim to cause aesthetic effect on the observer. The exhibition is the theme of the River Code as an icon of the city the river issues from the urban center to live and live a living in urban centers. The sketch is presented this time trying to tell along the Code with all its attributes and if the sketch has aesthetic value because there is a soul of perupanya. Inoccent. The exhibition is organized sketch is not without cause or by chance, but planned and have purpose. The sketch is present not only in terms of artistic wanting to achieve but "content" in the sketch implies that many femonena about urban life that is in the river in a city. Jogjakarta the slogan "Be Comfortable Yogyakarta" would change the meaning to "Take Yogyakarta Code". Sketch here in addition have more value, but there are shortcomings limited color sketches are dark and light in one color, the link with the river water in the sketch presented here may not reflect where the water is dirty and clean. So that appears between the headwaters and the mouth of the same, while going over it changes color and smell differently. The more visible towards the estuary will become cloudy when going upstream waste indiscriminately. So the impact on the river next to a murky also soiled by any garbage and cause a bad odor. By presenting this sketch as a "warning" to other cities that have a river in the city center.
Rivers will have a value between the river and the other functions in the mountains in the middle of the city. The first, identical streams with clear water, natural flood control and as well as the source of life, the other thing with the second one will be a catastrophe for the people around when that happens indiscriminate dumping area under construction of an irregular stream. But the sketch here more than sketch the game dark and light in one color that carries a message. Problems often arise in the riverside city center is the responsibility of all of us (the public) as well as the institutions involved in the management of urban development.
Piece of poems about the time code of the poet Ikun SK will close this article. Which of course therein contains "thousands of meaning" as the last message.
"How beautiful looking eyes
asleep in a blanket in the night
thousand poems pouring pus
unfolds without words
then the wind away
clutching ballad fathers
menambatkannya on niche horizon
morning you awake
and running
without prayer "
