Profile

 

Resatio is a visual artist by day and designer by night, though often it’s vice versa based in Adelaide/Kaurna Yarta, Australia, and originally from Bandung, Indonesia. He assembles GIFs through a mix of collage, drawing, and digital noise. His work thrives on absurd juxtapositions, digital glitches, and the unexpected, turning the familiar into something uncanny yet strangely compelling.

 

His art has been exhibited in spaces such as Selasar Soenaryo Art Space, Omnispace, National Design Centre Singapore, Superchief Gallery, and Theatre of Digital Art Dubai, as well as in digital showcases with Fakewhale.xyz, FuturaDrops, and Artgumi. He has also participated in numerous international exhibitions across Asia, Europe, and America.

 

Since 2021, Resatio has explored blockchain-based art on Tezos and Ethereum (he even witnessed the sunset of H=N, a platform that fostered a raw, experimental energy in digital art). All images used in his work come from the public domain; no copyrights were harmed in the making of his art.

 

His work playfully invites viewers to scratch their heads and wonder what exactly they’re looking at. Some may even find themselves questioning the meaning of life.

 

And now for something completely different: when not in the studio, he’s probably at a random skatepark doing sketchy slappies and pretending it’s part of the creative process.
