a sneak peak : "EYE OF MESSENGER" project

uugghh... I LOVE EYE .. SO MUCH!!!

hiyaakk.. ini adalah salah satu kecintaan saya yang lain, selain pemadam kebakaran dan toy camera, sodara sodara...
saya sukak sekali sama MATA !!!

hmm.. yeah.. nggak sampe parah ngoleksi biji mata di dalam stoples sih.. (hohoho.. serem amat yak?)

tapi saya bener bener suka sama mata..
buat saya.. mata memang jendela buat ngeliat seseorang..
saya seneng ngeliatin mata yang bagus... apalagi kalo twinkling... ;)
saya selalu seneng ngeliat mata si doi...
dan saya selalu sedih kalo dia nggak mau liat mata saya...

mata bisa bikin seseorang percaya, atau juga nggak percaya...

..saya selalu sepakat, kalo mata itu jendela hati...



dan kali ini saya sangat beruntung, untuk bisa terlibat di sebuah project super cihuy, yang judulnya "EYE OF MESSENGER"...

dimana akan ada puluhan mata indah yang punya banyak sekali cerita,
yang bakal mengerubungi saya tiap hari!!! uuhh.. senangnyaaa!!!



ini sebenernya proses untuk pameran tunggal ( istilah enggres nya " visual art solo exhibition" begitu.. ;) ) Iwan Effendi , yang bakal digelar mulai tanggal 30 September 2011 sampe 13 November 2011 di YAVUZ FINE ART GAllery, di Singapura.

jadi maaf.. ehhe.. kali ini, semua gambar yang ada di posting ini... bukan karya sayaa!! ohhoho...
kali ini saya kebagian tugas buat nulis buku puisi yang bakal jadi pengganti katalog pameran ini...
seru bangeett!!

ah.. apalagi ceritanya banyak berhubungan dengan memori...
suka!!!

welcome home, birdies..
bringing back those memories...

crane... crane..crane..
today i sing your song in the rain,
so those tragedy won't happen again...

too many things to be sacrifide.
for uplifting your pride...

saya selalu jatuh cinta sama drawing-nya Iwan Effendi !!

dan background karyanya yang ini pake KOPI, sodara sodara!
*bayangkan saya sedang mengendus bau kopi sekarang!! ooh.. yummy!!

ini dia salah satu puisi yang saya tulis untuk karyanya!!
i am so happy to be part of this project!!!

dan ini dia... si doi.. ;)

karena ini sneak peak, sedikit dulu yaa...
ihihi.. oya satu lagi, kami bakal bikin pementasan kecil untuk acara pembukaan pamerannya tanggal 30 September 2011 besok ituu!!

so excited!! woohoo!!

semangat, Iwan effendi!!!

i love you to the bones!!

the sky that i would love to share with you....

These are times while i was so lucky
When i just had my eyes, and my tiny camera with me...

God use no photoshop effect to color the sky, right?
so, why do i need to use it?

He provides me the best picture in life already!

MINT adalah bau masa kecil !

hmm..
ini memang bukan cerita tentang daun mint yang mungil itu...
atau permen mint yang sangat dibenci si Iw karena bikin dia mual...
atau odol rasa mint yang menjanjikan bau segar di mulut...


ini adalah cerita tentang sebuah tempat mungil berlantai 5...


dimana saya bertemu Si Telinga Lebar dan Noddy di salah satu sudutnya...


dimana saya terkikik kikik melihat Snoopy dengan kostum ruang angkasanya...


...dimana saya jatuh cinta dengan Golliwogs,
sekumpulan mahkluk berkulit hitam, berambut keriting dengan mata ramah...


dimana saya menyapa puluhan teddy bear dari berbagai penjuru negara!


dimana saya ternganga melihat Popeye dan Brutus yang bisa bekerjasama...


dimana saya bisa beramah tamah dengan Tintin dan Snowy...


..dan dimana saya bisa menyapa Betty Boop...
sosok seksi yang rambutnya mirip saya.. ;)




yeah.. ini cerita tentang MINT...
sebuah museum toys di negri tetangga yang sudah saya kunjungi berkali kali...
sebuah tempat di mana saya bisa menghabiskan waktu berjam jam untuk duduk di sofa empuknya,
hanya dengan memandangi ribuan mahkluk mungil di hadapan saya..



sebuah tempat,
dimana saya bisa merasakan bau masa kecil banyak orang...

sebuah tempat,
dimana ribuan kenangan bisa banyak diceritakan.
