Where the Sidewalks End
ISA Art Gallery, Wisma 46, Jakarta
27th February – 4th April 2025
ISA Art Gallery is proud to present our gallery collection exhibition Where the Sidewalks End, featuring the works of A. Sebastianus, Eun Vivian Lee, Ida Lawrence, Ines Katamso, Rose Cameron, Sinta Tantra, Tara Kasenda, Vanessa Jones, and Zico Albaiquni. Inspired by the poem written by Shel Silverstein in 1974, the collection offers an exploration of liminality that extends beyond the physical spaces on view. It gives us a pause at the threshold between the known and the unknown, urging us to reflect on the spaces we occupy in our daily lives and our minds—spaces defined by uncertainty and transition. Through their engagement with the liminal, the artists in this exhibition compel us to reconsider the edges of our experiences, to see them not merely as limitations but as gateways to new realms of understanding and perception.

Among the featured participants are Arahmaiani, Anastasia Astika, Ardi Gunawan, Anang Saptoto, Adi Sundoro, A. Sebastianus, Ashley Tay, Aurora Arrazie, Clea Soebroto, Condro Priyoaji, David Bakti, Egga Jaya, Ella Wijt, HUUH Collective, Hardi Budi, Ida Lawrence, Iwan Effendi, Jumaadi, Keenan Tham, Rega Ayundya, Restu Ratnaningtyas, Rui Kai Ho, Ruth Marbun, Widi Pangestu, Yosefa Aulia, and Zikry Rediansyah.
The versatility and emotional resonance of paper as a medium—captured in a short story by Ken Liu with the same title. Paper had become such a crucial part in the story, the nooks, pleats and the crannies on it mapped out an entire memory and the emotional weight that we created. Alas, paper as both a medium and a metaphor, reminds us of the fluid, transient, and yet poignant nature of memory and identity.

The Yeats Sisters & Irish Design: Making, Identities, and Legacies
World Trade Centre 2, Jakarta
10th February – 7th March 2025
The exhibition celebrates the pioneering work of Elizabeth and Susan (Lily) Yeats, founders of Dun Emer and Cuala Industries, and their significant contributions to the Arts and Crafts movement. By combining traditional Irish materials with contemporary artistic practices, the Yeats sisters showcased Ireland's cultural identity through textiles, prints, and publications that gained international recognition.
Featuring items from the Cuala Archive, the exhibition highlights their creative legacy and their role in empowering women in art and design. Through collaborations with writers, visual artists, and designers, their work not only shaped Ireland’s artistic heritage but also positioned it as a sovereign cultural force.
