Dua dunia 2.0

Materials: acrylic paint, sand, mortex, graffiti, modeling paste

This diptych was created for someone whose origins lie in Indonesia and whose life later unfolded in Belgium. The work reflects the experience of living between two worlds: the place where one’s roots begin and the place where a new life is built.

The two panels stand side by side like two continents, two realities that are both separate and connected. Together they symbolize two identities that exist within one person. Distinct, yet inseparable, they form a whole that cannot be divided. It is not only about origin, but also about growth and the ability to create one’s own future while carrying the past within it.

This manilla light green color is a softer variation of the original burgundy palette. This version was chosen to create a lighter, more calming atmosphere, as green naturally evokes a sense of peace.

Dua Dunia 2.0 means “Two Worlds” in Indonesian and refers to the reality of people whose identity is formed between different places, cultures, and life stories—two worlds that exist side by side within one person.
