Aan Arif: Sport l, Oil on Canvas, 145 x 170 cm. he Expressionist style of Aan Arif is evident in Sport I, which reflects the excitement and elation of triumphant athletes as they rush past the finish line. In order to achieve a marginally blurry effect without compromising the coherence of the painting, Arif wipes paint to form textures on the surface of his canvas. This technique makes the athletes appear as if they are moving beyond the speed of light.

Aan Arif: Marilyn Monroe #3, Oil on Canvas, 150 x 130 cm. Marilyn Monroe is undoubtedly one of the most famous popular icons of the 20th century and she is a familiar sight to millions of people worldwide. Aan Arif explores the myth of popular culture through his projection of an inchoate, barely formed image - the repeated streaks across her face bring about a distortion that can be read both literally and figuratively.

LP- Mona Lisa Smile by Dedy Sufriadi

Dedy Sufriadi: Mona Lisa Smile, Oil on Canvas, 150 x 150 cm. Filled with memories and intuitive rambling, Dedy's pictures are spontaneous expressions of his subconscious mind. The text he uses are examples of slivers of intelligence added into his intuitive drawings, telling stories or providing context as a representation of his mental process when creating. Here he depicts the face of a woman with a smile as beautiful as the Mona Lisa, as seen intuitively in his mind.

Dedy Sufriadi: Face #2, Acrylic on Canvas, 150 x 150 cm.

The title tells the viewer the state of the artists mind and what inspired the expression, thus implying that the artist was thinking of his mother when he created this.
