About work
The picture shows the process of making sumalak, which embodies our national traditions and values. The artist created the works in the form of three parts, and although the paintings depict separate situations, the meaning is a single whole.
In the third picture, the women and the man playing the dutar are playing in a circle, while the people around are listening to music. They celebrate until dawn, waiting for Sumalak to ripen. On the right, two cooks are cooking soup, above is a mother rocking a baby, on the left is a boy riding a donkey, below is a young man carrying a bowl of fruit. All images show a peaceful and beautiful rural landscape, and the villagers organize a holiday in harmony and solidarity.
The artist depicted the work in black and white, orange and brown. The state of the trees in full bloom and covered with flowers is depicted in all three works, which makes the impression on the person, as if they were three parts of the film. . Flying "spring ambassadors" - the flight of swallows evoke the feeling that a gentle melody of spring is playing in the human heart.
