Beyond his monochromatic paintings, Maryanto also taps on other mediums in this presentation to convey the unbridled impingement of the natural environment in the region. Palm Oil District (2023) comprises 11 embroidered crests that bring attention to the provinces in Indonesia that were once revered for its lush landscape but have now been taken over by palm oil plantations. Featuring the original emblems with motifs often symbolising prosperity and environmental protection, the work recalls a distant ideology.


Palm Oil District references an earlier work in 2019, “Rukun Tresna” (Harmonious and Affectionate), a site-specific installation of free-standing flags that represent the various hobbies and leisure activities in Indonesia. Commissioned for 900MDPL Hantu-Hantu Seribu Percakapan (Ghosts of a Thousand Conversations) in Kaliurang, a village on the southern slope of Merapi in Indonesia, the work is imbued with the possibility of preservation and transmission of transgenerational memory. Like in Maryanto’s latest work for Art Dubai, Palm Oil District creates an alternative archive for local histories, wisdom, and myths.
