IDAK-IDAK-IDAK
Kae Oktorina & christopher tym | 2026 | Indonesia, NL | 45’ | EN subtitles

< em>Idak-Idak-Idak is a hybrid-documentary relating the stolen Lo mbok Treasures with the Sasak diaspora through three generations of women: a daughter, her mother, and her grandmother. Blending full-spectrum cinem atography with personal footage, this film moves between Indonesia and the Netherlands to examine colonial legacies, displacement and healing the he art of home. In Sasak, "Idak" can be interpreted as both “heart” and “abse nce”, becoming a container for memory, loss, and the unseen layers of the self between generations.

THE WEIGHT OF BLUE
Performance | 25’ | s ound by Dmytro Tentiuk

Artist Fransisca Angela traces overlapping m aterial histories, revealing pigments not only as materials but as choreog raphies of bodies and repeated acts of extraction. The work asks: How can performing these instructions challenge or reframe narratives of women’s w ork and representation in the history of pigment-making? What parallels ex ist between the chemical instability of pigments and that of handmade film emulsion?
