CYCLE No. 2 marks the second stage of Agus Suwage’s major new body of work. Shown in three cities around the world – Jakarta, New York, and Berlin – these exhibitions focus on the cycle of life and death, an ongoing theme in the artist’s work and a constant preoccupation and catalyst for reflection in his life. In his work, Suwage references his mixed Javanese and Chinese background, as well as his experience as a Christian convert to Islam, while alluding to Java’s Hindu, Buddhist, and animist spiritual traditions.

One of Indonesia’s most revered and internationally active contemporary artists, Suwage’s works have been featured in over 150 exhibitions around the world and are included in most collections of Southeast Asian contemporary art.
