Masih ada baju yang lama

(Yang penting hatinya yang baru!) :D
Happy Lebaraaaan, all!

55+ (finally)

halo!

everybody know, how stress i am before (finally)..
55+
a photo exhibition by UFO’s 17th generation
(but no one know, how proud i am being one of them)


held on 27th August-1st September 2010
at cafebale Jogjakarta
opened by a very famous painter; Ki Joko Pekik
visited by at least 400 lucky people (including my father :D)

i don't ever think,
there's an amazing, beautifull, antique, and unforgetable art gallery like CAFEBALE before.
Although it spent too much time for the curator to think about the display, but hey..
looook how cozy this place..


Oke, lets check this out
this is one of my photo(s), titled "Ditinggal Untuk Merdeka"

I photographed Kiki Mella Clara's super grandmom -Ms. Marijam- (read:Maryam)
with her husband -Mr. Barnas- photo in her hand.
Mr. Barnas was an Indonesia freedom fighter, died because stroke a few years ago.
hmm to be honest i felt disappointed because
Bang Didi (one of the curator) rejected my writing for this photo's caption. :(
But this is my page, i can write all of what i want here. So sorry Bang Didi hihi :p

"Ditinggal Untuk Merdeka"

Tangan tak dapat lagi digenggam
Pipi tak dapat lagi dikecup
Bahkan sehelai rambutpun tak dapat lagi dibelai
Kenangan memang tak pernah salah untuk selalu diingat
Tapi apa mau dikata kalau Tuhan yang bertahta
Simpan! Simpan kenangan itu..
Seperti suamimu selalu menyimpan merah di darahnya
dan putih ditulangnya.

And the other photo was..

"Layang Kangen"

Sepine ing wengi iki. Atiku mung tansyah iling karo kowe. Angin parama ribut mung tansyah ngelengake. Aku ora bakal lali karo kowe. Aku kangen kowe. Isuk, awan, wengi, sore.
Aku kangen kowe! -Mi-

Sunyinya malam ini. Hatiku hanya teringat padamu. Angin parama ribut turut mengingatkan. Aku tak akan melupakanmu. aku merindukanmu. pagi, siang, malam, sore. Aku merindukanmu! -Mi-*

*Surat ini tak pernah tersampaikan. Beberapa tahun yang lalu, suaminya berpulang.

-Astrini-

Mbah Mi (the talent) is a food seller behind my father's office. She is a widow. Her husband died a few years ago. She tried to write down her everlasting longing to her husband (in heaven) by this letter. She said to me that the letter was a Java's song lyric by Didi Kempot.

I and 24 other photographers work hard to organize
and make our passion comes true; making a good photos exhibition.
and i feel so satisfied with all of our work hard. God bless us! :D

making love with photoshop in the middle of the night

i've made some 'stupid' photo story from my young sister photo's collection.
I guess i start to falling in love (again) with photoshop and making another photo story.

a call for your Mama

hai. Today is 5th Juli 2010.
-it-supposed-to-be a very happy day for your Mama. (-and-me-) :D
yeaaaah it's MAMA's birthday :D
i called your Mama this morning, i pushed her phone number from my home's telphone
tut.. tut.. tut..
"HALO!" hmm kinda nervous since a long long time i have no time to meet your mom
"Halo" she said. Sounds like your Mama so excited with a girl who called her up.
"Tante, this is Achi" i told her..
"Oh, Achi" Hmm, don't know why, sounds like she lost her interest to talk with me since she knew that i called her, she perhaps thought about a girl who broke her son's heart so that she was getting bored.
my tears were going to fall but i had to great her..
"Happy Birthday Tante"
"Oh ya thank you"
..........................................
"Are you home now?"
"Yes tante"
..........................................
Silence.
Silence.
and silence.
well to be honest i wanted to heard she spoke.. "Come to our house achi" (like usually) but she didn't. What a pity, am i? haha
i try to continued our chit chat so that i could broke the ice over us. I said blablabla but-finally mama said "oke then"
...........................................
"hmm oke tante daaaah"
tuuuut.. tuuuttt.. tuuttt.. my heart was beating so fast.
yeah, everybody's change
including Mama
maybe-she-hates-me or maybe she wants to continue her task
yes, yeah, suuuure!! She wants to continue her task
...............
from my deepest heart Tante..


Me love you even if you don't :D
