Art Direction and setup of the Pulau Exhibition.
The sales of the artwork reverted for raising money to the MAINAN project.
︎︎︎
Exhibition about the Mainan Project, a Portuguese Project with the goal of raising funds for bringing toys to the Lombok island, which was destroyed by the earthquake of 5th August 2018.
︎︎︎Seven volunteers, including myself, were in Lombok. The exhibition was set up to show how the island was and how people lived by that time with no home, jobs, or anything.
The exhibition consisted of Lombok's photographs and art pieces. I invited 18 artists to collaborate and participate in creating specific artwork for this theme. The artwork was on sale and the funds raised were going directly to the project Mainan.
Mainan is still working to help the communities we met in Lombok.
