Biophilia: Exquisite Corpse

ISA Art Gallery proudly presents Biophilia, its biannual exhibition series dedicated to supporting environmental resistance. This year’s edition, Exquisite Corpse, brings together Arahmaiani, Dabi Arnasa, Anang Saptoto, Cynthia Delaney Suwito, Fitri DK, Kynan Tegar × Studio Birthplace × Novo Amor, Mater Design Lab, Reza Kutjh, and Teguh Ostenrik in a collaborative reflection on ecological interdependence.

 

Drawing from the surrealist game of chance, Exquisite Corpse unfolds unpredictably, piece by piece, like ripples across water or the concentric growth of a tree’s rings. The exhibition speaks to cycles of growth and decay, and to bodies, systems, and landscapes entangled in mutual transformation. At its core, it calls for renewed attentiveness to the fragile balance that sustains us and invites us to reimagine our place within the ecosystems we inhabit.
