Artworks by three women artists show how humans, as part of nature, are still longing for tangible and real experiences when it comes to fully grasping nature and everything surrounding it.
As a discipline, sensory studies involve approaching culture to comprehend the application of the senses. This study seeks to expand the boundaries that have been determined by the study of psychology regarding sensory perception by means of inquiry in a range of other disciplines such as humanities, natural and social sciences.
“Fiametta Gabriela begins by creating patterns and leaving negative spaces between them, which at the beginning, she finds a sense of relief from doing so. From there, her intuition and reflexes began to move towards the empty fields”

“Heewon Oh found common ground and correlation between her painting practice and the weather cycle. The most notable evidence of this is her consistent use of rainbow colors in her works, suggesting a visual phenomenon experienced by humans as the weather changes”
Heewon Oh
“The various sensations within Kanoko Takaya’s body of work, in some respects, are quite sensitive to particular cultural contexts. Kanoko based her work on the general concept of primitive emotions: the desires and feelings that arise due to humans' origins before experiencing the culture.”

Artist
Fiametta Gabriela
“My work is based on my daily life which is vast. Roles, objects, and events combine into one: domestic items, psychology, people, repetitive activities, accumulated problems, and objects that tell a story“
Her work is embedded in her daily life, meaning it touches upon mundane subjects. Inspired by everyday objects/materials, she discovers the absurdity, negligence, resistance, remedy, and dialogue between humankind, their surroundings, and themselves.

“The habit of observing the world around me through transparent glass windows allowed me to conceptualize natural phenomena, such as the atmosphere and the weather“
Inspired by the notion that a clear memory accompanies a space and time is imprinted through space, she then creates a narrative of time and simultaneously constructs an environment that visualizes time.

Kanoko Takaya/髙屋 佳乃子
“The general theme of my body of work is “primitive emotion”. Things that I experience and feel within my daily life, instinctively and intuitively, I described them through my colors and forms because I could not express them through my words“
Her fascination with Indonesian folk art and traditional masks are reflected through the motifs of her artworks. Kanoko creates artwork using various techniques and mediums such as acrylic plates, illustrations on canvas, paper, and fabric, antique decoration, and other three-dimensional formats.
