Bayu Utomo Radjikin

 

 

Qiblat. 2006
Acrylic on canvas
231 cm x 411 cm (3 panels)

In Bayu Utomo Radjikin’s Qiblat (2006), the warrior figure, is a "metaphor of this spirit who becomes a source of support and protection for the individual through his life’s journey", and here the warrior appears to be caught in the midst of seeking direction and perhaps is an entreaty as well with the rehal and mace as tools aiding this particular search.
