Installation view of looping loopholes at Yeo Workshop 1
Foreword by Audrey Yeo, Director Yeo Workshop Yeo Workshop presents the group exhibition looping loopholes with works by Duto Hardono, Muhammad Akbar and Rizki Resa Utama (better known as OQ), and curated by Roy Voragen. All three artists originate from Indonesia; OQ has been based in Germany since 2008 to pursue his academic studies, while Duto and Akbar live and work in Bandung. Roy is originally from the Netherlands but has been residing in Bandung since 2003. looping loopholes raises an important question: can we not only tolerate, but also see in a new light what at first would be perceived as a mistake? Or, to put it differently, can the unintended become an intentional part of urban living? The artists tackle this question in witty, visually strong and conceptually rigorous ways to materialise their works. The conceptual premise of this exhibition is mediated in various ways: photography, single- and double-channeled videos (displayed as a projection as well as on HD monitors) and sound installations. For artists born in the 80s, technology – smart phones, tablets, the Internet, etc. – is a ubiquitous part of everyday life; they are not concerned with labels such as new media art, sound art or video art. When working beyond the more traditional medium of painting, the method adopted is not chosen for the sake of merely pushing boundaries, but as a contemplative result which better suits the creative concept. For this exhibition, the artists related the question mentioned above – mistakes as blessings in disguise – to our anxious bodies, socially constructed languages, urban space, and non-linear time. These relationships are explored and intersected at different levels. The multi-layered intersections are looped – literally and metaphorically – throughout the exhibition space, subsequently making Yeo Workshop and its visitors part of an ongoing loop of feedback. Guests of Yeo Workshop are invited to experience and interpret the exhibited artworks in looping loopholes based on their own experiences. Subjectively deciphering the display on separate levels, meanings become apparent on intellectual, sensual, and emotional grounds. Duto, Akbar and OQ are in their early thirties but are already established in their careers, in Indonesia in particular, as well as in Asia, Europe and beyond. All three artists have exhibited in international biennales and participated in international residencies. In Bandung, the artists have been exposed to discourses on, and ways of dealing with, the global history of contemporary art. However, this formative background did not teach them to vmerely follow tradition. Instead, to avoid lingering on the surface of the visual they appropriate what they need, discard other parts, add their own ideas and obsessions, with an astute sense of humour. In continuation of the artists’ productive arc, looping loopholes is a tangent into Singapore. This exhibition offers a solid introduction of the artists and their work in line with Yeo Workshop’s mandate to support emerging artists and their creative research. As a contemporary art gallery, Yeo Workshop promotes the works of international artists that pose a challenge, and local artists who help contribute to Singapore’s distinctive culture. The work aims to engage with national and international audiences alike.

looping loopholes by Roy Voragen, Curator We could try to transform our contingency into destiny.
- Agnes Heller
Liquid modern life is a daily rehearsal of universal transience.
- Zygmunt Bauman
Language in all its shapes and forms is what gives us body. We whisper, we yell, we argue, we declare, we state this and that. We look, gaze, stare. We are seen-not-seen. We paint in lush brush strokes. We scribble notes on the city’s walls, we write dissertations on the fall of the re/public. We read philosophy, poetry and prose. We take, post and like photos. We read out loud. We wink, we show the finger. We whisper. We listen, we pretend to listen. We try to understand. We don’t understand – no, not at all. We contradict each other and ourselves. We trip, we fall. We fail. We fail again. And, we start over… Occasionally, we speak in riddles and tongues, including slips. Slippery streets are cacophonic. Voices and counter-voices inhabit our cities. Specters of a past are here to haunt us; movies and monuments immortalizing the victorious sins of an imagined we. A city without people is no longer a city. A city would turn quickly into a ruin of asphalt and concrete without us – merely a collection of potholes; all stone and no flesh. A city means many things. It also means this: to fail, to fail again and then try again, to trip, to fall and pick ourselves up once more. There are as many definitions of cities as there are cities. However, all these definitions have in common is that cities are places where we meet as strangers. In cities we meet alien bodies, transient bodies. In cities we speak and hear foreign tongues. A city with her bricks and whispers, her raindrops and candies, her meandering rivers and drunken sailors, her brush strokes, her cacophonous soundtracks, her unsung love affairs, her coffee and cigarettes at the crack of dawn, the odor of green papayas, her 4
hopes and ghosts, gentle and wicked… A city we remember. Cities are not merely backdrops to the stories we tell each other over and over again, cities are the fiber that give these stories the much needed bones – and a pulsation, too. A jazzy pulse, or one of gamelan, or heavy metal, or tango, or hybrids: dangdut infused with a fab disco beat – so many cities, so many rhythms. To remember is not the same as to commemorate – archives of the city are amnesiac zombie entities of our memory. Graveyards are the sites where memories as we knew them come to an end. Numbered, catalogued, put in neat folders and cabinets in underground basements, our memories are stored to collect dust and fungus. A memory with a pulse is a mobile memory, told or shown to others – countless times given manifold shapes and forms – whispered from ear to ear, morphing from one to another body. A city – the bad & the ugly, the delicious and wreckage, the uncanny and repressed, happiness and joy, the sleazy one night stands and magnificent hubris. Cities, certainly, are only built metaphorically in a week’s time. However, a week is ample time to spectacularly wipe out an entire metropolis with its sinners, specters and samurais off the face of the earth. A week is also plentiful of time to alter our imagined city. Art can move us – move us to built a city, multiple cities out of our memory to remember, to commit to… Cities function like magnets. People move to the city not only because they hope to take part in its economic prowess, people also move to the city because it plays such an important part in our imagination – the city of freedom, the city of development, the city of luminous spectacles. However, sometimes, for many, hopes and dreams are evaporated by dusk. A city is a site of ontological uncertainty, which can cause anxiety and possibly violence against the stranger, against what is perceived as disturbingly alien and impure & dirty. Architectural designs give power a form and, in turn, shape power. Spaces and places frame life; furthermore, the ways we use these spaces and places are framed by the ways we talk about them: technically, aesthetically, morally, politically, economically, legally, socio-psychologically, etc. Urban anxiety and an ‘architecture of fear’ are Siamese twins: gated communities, CCTVs and drones, flyovers, super-blocks comprising malls and apartments are used to avoid the disgusting chaos – symbolizing social status, the graving for security and a distrust of strangers (expulsion of gentiles as gentrification), while, at the very same time, not providing real safety, which causes, in turn, even more anxiety, which, in turn, can lead to yet another call for increased control and so on and so on... 5
Hermeneutic indeterminacy – not knowing how to go on because the actions of others are unpredictable – has to do with urban complexity. But don’t be a fool to equate complexity with chaos. Chaotic Jakarta is as complex as ordered Singapore. Newcomers to Jakarta are told that the city’s traffic has only one rule: there are no rules. However, if that would be true, road rage and fatalities would be rampant. And perhaps Singapore is more prone to the next urban revolution than any other chaospolis in the region. It’s presumptuous to claim only others can run amok and to regard a homicidal frenzy around Orchard as unimaginable. Can we live with our creations, our cities? And, can we live with contingency? Do we give in to heterophobia and attempt to purge ambivalence from our cities by disciplining ourselves and others further and further? And isn’t beautifying the city not just another doublethink term for law & order? The futility of it all. And fatalism. Or…what if? Or, we could embrace the complexity of heterotopia. And we could see systematic failures & glitches and unintended consequences as new avenues to a renewed imagined city. Could we give alterity – the multitudes of otherness – a shot? And heterodox agency? Breaks and tears, chance and change are inevitable, even though only slightly visible/audible at first, when an action is – or: has to be – repeated over and over again. Failure and a deviation from perceived standards are common treads to who we are/can be(-come) in particular places and times (including how we are perceived and received by others in public and private instances). The exhibition looping loopholes deals with the repetitive, reflexive interaction between people, language, space place and time. With flair and a witty sense of humor, the artists – Duto Hardono, Muhammad Akbar and Rizki Resa Utama (aka OQ) – raise the question whether we can embrace mistakes as a blessing in disguise.
Duto Hardono
Duto Hardono (Jakarta, 1985) received his BFA from the painting studio, Institute of Technology Bandung (ITB), Indonesia, in 2007 and his MFA from the same university in 2010. During his BFA, he painted on found objects as a move to go beyond the canvas; after completing his BFA he refocused to collage works and sound installations, the latter often with performative elements. Besides practicing as a visual artist, he teaches at ITB’s inter-media studio and he creates, produces and releases his own sound works on cassette tapes. Duto works with different materials, preferably low-fi, and media, including sound, drawing, video, ready-made and performance. Duto draws inspiration from a variety of sources: pop culture, conceptual art (including its creative mistranslations), 6
anti-art movement, and a dark sense of humor. He participated in biennales in Shanghai (2012; he collaborated with Meiro Koizumi, their work was subsequently censored) and Yogyakarta (2013), he conducted residencies in Japan (2011), Egypt (2013) and Taiwan (2014), and he had two solo exhibitions thus far: Good Love, Bad Joke (at Selasar Sunaryo Art Space, Bandung, 2010) and Klab Lucifer (at Ark Gallery, Yogyakarta, 2014). He also performs live, for example at Goodman Arts Center, Singapore, 2014.
How to perform John Cage’s 4’33’’ on a tape loop delay as demonstrated by a band of cacti
2009, site-specific installation with cassette tape loop, portable cassette recorders and players, headphones and cacti (first shown during In De Kost, a collaborative project with Mella Jaarsma at Selasar Sunaryo Art Space). In this work, the cacti reference the impossibility of performing silence – of John Cage’s 4’33’’ as well as more mundane silence. We are incapable of producing (tolerating?) silence: we inevitably produce and are surrounded by a wide range of sounds, not all audible at first, sometimes it requires a little help from amplification techniques. By hypostatizing the promise of silence we attune ourselves to sounds. The magnetic tape records and plays seductive silence produced by the cacti to which we can listen to with delay – with delay, as sound needs to travel through time and space. The ambient sounds of the gallery space are recorded and played as well to distort the silence of the cacti: the absence of a deliberate sound composition liberates indeterminate sounds we chance upon. Silence and sound both share the characteristic of duration. And this work plays on the social etiquette of an art space, where we are supposed to view art in silence, but we are hardly ever completely silent actors: a door opens and closes, footsteps, a cough, and etcetera intersect with silence. Looping can also be seen as a metaphor for non-linearity, moreover, the delayed loop in this time-based installation functions as a mnemonic device as it registers unconsciously and accidently made sounds of a proximate past. And cassettes can be considered as ready-made artifacts of past – more distant – times’ achievements, and, as such, these objects can symbolize a remembrance of times past.
Not an Event in Life
2015, site-specific installation with an open reel tape player, a tape loop with sound, vintage horn speaker, chair and flowers. Sound art only comes alive in a space where we can have an embodied experience of the sound, and in the exhibition looping 7

loopholes Duto presents a new site-specific sound installation with an appropriate Wittgensteinian title. In this installation, the vintage horn speaker’s brand is Toa, which is widely used in Indonesia. Additionally, the horn is used as an improvised vase; the flowers will slowly die while the sound fails to wither away, at least for the duration of the show anyway. The horn/vase rests on an upside-down chair, borrowed from the gallerist’s dining room. And as with Joseph Kosuth’s work One and Three Chairs, the choice of chair is contingent on the availability of chairs (for Duto’s installation, the only requirement is that the chair has round legs so not to cut the tape loop too quickly). While the sound of a screeching chair is repeated over and over again, this doesn’t mean that no changes occur. For Duto, repetition involves change: over time the looped magnetic tape will start to show signs of wear, which will alter the sound. Mistakes, therefore, can be considered as hidden intentions. And the sound of the screeching chair can be interpreted based on one’s own experiences; one visitor referred to it as ‘the elephant in the room’, and another as the wailing sound arising out of a slum at night. During the opening, Duto presented a performance titled Variations on Pierre Henry’s Variations for a Door and a Sigh. Pierre Henry (1927) is a composer from France who works in the genre of ‘musique concrète’ and he integrates the miscellaneous into his compositions. For Duto, this performance is both an ode and a looping back. Duto performed this piece two times during opening night, and the second time artist Bani Haykal joined him. While Duto sampled from several tapes on a Walkman, a looped tape on an open reel tape deck (looped around a microphone stand) and a tape deck, Bani, sitting on the floor at the other end of the gallery, used his amplified voice as an instrument, resulting in an intriguing and moving feedback dialog: it’s the beauty of slippage that mistakes were woven into the dialogue.
Muhammad Akbar
Muhammad Akbar (Bandung, 1984) studied French literature at the Education University of Indonesia in Bandung (2007) and he received his MFA from ITB (2012). Muhammad Akbar practices as a video artist and his work is both exhibited as single channel videos as well as video installations. Besides practicing as an artist, he also works as a graphic designer (which he refers to as propaganda as his job can require to make something appear in a better light than it is in reality) and VJ. Doubling as a VJ and a motiongrapher under the moniker Killafternoon, he occasionally collaborates with bands and musicians in the indie music scene. As a visual artist, he exhibits and screens his works in numerous film festivals and art exhibitions; for example, Bangkok Experimental Film Festival (2005), the video art biennale OK Video Festival (2007, 2009 and 2011), at ZKM in 2011 (Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany), and at ICAS (Singapore, 2012). In 2012 he had a solo exhibition at Selasar Sunaryo Art Space titled Gaze (the Unseen) and in 2014 he participated in a residency program in France (which was awarded to him as part of his Bandung Contemporary Art Award prize in 2013). 9

In Gaze Control #1-#5
2012, ed. 4, series of 5, single-channel HD 1080p video, 10’ (looped) (first shown in the exhibition What Do Pictures Want, Jakarta). For this series, Akbar liquidized traditional portrait photography into video. The women in this series were asked to sit in silence for ten minutes, and the camera recorded their every twitch while the camera stood motionless in front of them. The silent-mode flat screen is a peephole-like device of voyeurism to satisfy our – heterosexual male – scopophilic instinct (the pleasure derived from looking). Akbar, and his camera, watched these women. And, in turn, we watch these women being watched. Moreover, we watch other gallery visitors watching. The phallocentric gaze is socially constructed and systemized to mark social and sexual status. The potentially violent gaze can cause an anxious awareness that one is or might be watched, which can cause a sense of a loss of autonomy. Furthermore, the gaze is internalized, which renders the relationship between observer and observed powerful. To see and be seen – in a reflexive tango – can change all who are involved. The object of our gaze is never completely passive; there is always a chance that the other glances back, even if it is just in our imagination, and might break through the looking glass. The gaze, for sure, objectifies (nameless women in the case of this series). But what does it to us, gallery visitors, to stare at these women? Are these women looking back at us from behind their screens? And so the feedback loop continues.
The Light Runner
2015, ed. 5, single channel video (projection), 12’30’’ (looped). The predecessor of The Light Runner was part of his solo exhibition Gaze (The Unseen) as a video installation titled Light Chaser; for the exhibition looping loopholes he recreated this work as a single channel video, not by re-editing the source material but by re-enacting the performance. In this performance, the artist, wearing a white suit, runs in circles, chasing – haunting – himself. The white suit, reflecting the beam of light, – like the wigs and make-up the women wear in In Gaze Control – is armor, a uniform to hide behind. Self-doubt and performance anxiety – concerning his untrained, ungracious body, concerning his place in the world – play an important role in this work; yet, we can only know our body spatially. Where is Akbar running towards? He is eternally running in circles, clockwise surrounded by pitch-black darkness. What or who is he running from? The loop has no beginning nor end – causality seems to be taken out of the equation. There is no stepping outside of the loop; the loop is all there is.

Rizki Resa Utama (OQ)
Rizki Resa Utama (better known as OQ; Bandung, 1982) studied Communication Science at Padjajaran University in Bandung (BA; 2006). In 2008, he moved to Braunschweig, Germany, for his BFA (‘Diplom’; 2013) and MFA (‘Meisterschüller’; 2014), both from the Kunsthochschule für Bildende Künste. He uses the medium of moving images, which in his case can take the form of video, experimental film, photography (a photo is a moving image frozen in time) and performance art. He has shown his work in Canada, France, Germany, Iceland, Indonesia (like Duto and Akbar, OQ has shown his work at Selasar Sunaryo Art Space), Italy, the Netherlands, Philippines, Singapore (in 2006 at the Sculpture Square, in 2007 at Your Mother Gallery, and the 2008 biennale), South Africa, Switzerland and Turkey; he conducted an artist-in-residency in Turkey (2011); and he had his first solo exhibition in 2005 titled Bukan Orang Biasa (Unusual People, at Common Room Networks Foundation, Bandung) and his second solo exhibition at Junge Kunst E.V. Wolfsburg, Germany, in 2015.
Kembali ke Sekolah (Back to School)
2014, ed.5, two-channel video installation, 9’51’’, mime artist: Wanggi Hoediyatno (first shown as part of his solo exhibition re- at Junge Kunst E.V. Wolfsburg, Germany, 2015). This work consists of two screens facing each other. On one screen, a man (the artist as director) can be seen giving instructions in Indonesian. On the other screen, an actor mimes these instructions while he is intimately connected to another person (the artist as puppeteer) by the waist and arms. The mime artist attempts to give meaning to the directed words by performing them through his body. The artist resides in Germany since 2008 and on his last trip back home he came to realize that he is no longer fluent in the fluidity of his mother tongue, the tongue that connects to home, and not the abstract, imagined Heimat but the actually living space of a particular place with real people – where is home without a fluid tongue? This theatrical work emphasizes that (re-)acquiring the ability to speak a language fluently and understand its subtleties means to be part of a social network, which involves mimicry, mistakes, performance and play; and only when one is able to do so, one could potentially become part of that place. We say ‘panic’ and ‘eat’, but what do these words mean? Their meaning, their normativity, should become internalized into our own body, and a socially constructed language requires embodied performances to stay alive (and, obviously, change).

2-channel video installation, 9’51” Edition of 5 + 1 Artist’s Proof 16
Hallo #1-#2
2015, ed.2, series of 4, photo performance, 60 x 90cm, photo credit: Ulf Beck (first live performed at Kunstraum 53, Hildesheim, Germany, 2014). In this series, the artist explores our relationships to space and place, which are never neutral, by imitating the shape of an abandoned room by re-positioning a mass of participants within its perimeters. One by one, participants are placed and arranged until the shape of the room is cloned bordered with tape on the floor. The performance ends with the artist shouting ‘Hallo!’. And like language, the meaning of a particular place is not – cannot be – constructed out of a solitary act, it rather requires continuous interaction in and with particular spaces. And vice versa, we know ourselves – our body – spatially in interaction with others. Meaning is socially constructed through reflexive interactions over time in particular places; to keep meaning alive – or change it over time – is to perform socially. Meaning is not abstract: it is social, spatial and temporal. We need language, in the broadest sense of the word, to attempt to make sense of it all: ourselves (and our bodies), time and space/place. However, no matter how intricate the stories we tell about ourselves, our origins and destinies become, if we assemble all these together they amount to nonsense (nonsense (and contradictions), though, ought to be taken seriously). To return to the question the artists pose in this exhibition, whether we can embrace mistakes as a blessing in disguise, or, to put it in a slightly different way, can errors possibly be the seeds of something different? Yes, the artists show, errors, while properly speaking unintended and unwanted because we are inclined to favor control, can be unexpected and short-lived situations or moments that offer the possibility of something else, an altered pathway leading to unparalleled directions – yet, not as a final solution to ambiguities…and so the disequilibria perpetuate…
Roy Voragen is a Bandung-based curator and art critic. * Two notes: First, I have recycled myself, well, at least some of my previous writings, for this essay. Writing, for me at least, is a slow and meandering process of going back and forth between ideas and ways of formulating & expressing these ideas. Second, this isn’t an academic text, so I abstained from using quotes & footnotes, but if you really need to know my sources, here is a selection (in no order whatsoever): Zygmunt Bauman, Wittgenstein, Nietzsche, Anthony Giddens, Ulrich Beck, Foucault, De Certeau, Lefebvre, David Harvey, Abidin Kusno, Agung Jennong, Richard Sennett, Richard Rorty, Scott Lash, Haruki Murakami, John Urry, Laura Mulvey, Kristi Monfries, John Dewey, Richard Shusterman and Italo Calvino.
