Rahayu Retnaningrum is an Indonesian artist born in 1994 in Jakarta whose very colorful work is a real reinterpretation of our world and spaces. The work of the artist is inspired by the concept of Pharmakon, implying that every object is pharmacological, and a fortiori both remedy and poison. Furthermore, her artistic practice aims to merge and simplify everything surrounding her, by bringing a new perspective.

New perspectives between nature, geometry and color pushed to the limit. By exploiting the urban landscape, Rahayu Retnaningrum materializes a metaphorical society, made up of subjects who intermingle and merge to form a single entity. Blending organic and geometric forms, the young artist highlights the contrast between the two landscapes that have animated her daily life, and stages them in harmony in a new reality. Her work has been rewarded in 2010 on the occasion of the national painting competition of the Indonesian National Gallery.
