Hello Baby Seahorse
This artwork depicts Pontohi seahorses that have just emerged from their pouch. The baby Pontohi appear very cheerful, gathering in groups and floating through the water, showcasing the joyfulness of baby seahorses. The use of pastel colors further enhances the sense of happiness. The composition used in this piece differs slightly from others, as the tiny size of the baby seahorses affects the background, which is decorated with smaller coral reefs. The Pontohi seahorses are illustrated with larger eyes, symbolizing the common association of babies with larger heads.
Widya Sri Sucihati
I am from Indramayu, West Java. I pursued my passion for art in Yogyakarta, graduating from ISI Yogyakarta in 2021. Influenced by Yayoi Kusama, Rizal Hasan, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, my work blends vibrant colors, decorative elements, and raw expression. I strive to create art that resonates with audiences, guided by Sujiwo Tejo’s belief that “A painting is a visible soul.” My dream is to host a solo exhibition that shares my journey and inspires new perspectives.
