Reynold Adinegara starts life as a ceramicist circa 2019 with a career value that is contrasting with the previous one by fully embracing the inner voice in the process of creation.

The works of Adinegara ceramics are distinguished by the minimalistic, earthy, and monochromatic visual sense with deep thoughts on human touch and interaction philosophies. Expanding thoughts with the magnificent material the clay is, Reynold seeks to translate a crowded mind, trapped emotion & memories through the creation process of artworks with the ceramic medium. Within a singled out thoughts within the work, Reynold would hope the art can open a personal experience interpretation of the viewer and invoke meditative thoughts.

Beholder

2019 - Indonesia

Wheel thrown stoneware & terracotta, resin, wooden board & solid wood frame

165 x 85 x 15 cm

A conversation can invoke several thoughts, several conversations will invoke a significant thought. In a phase of early ceramic life, Reynold immersed himself in a sense of liberation from leaving the previous endeavor which attract friends into a conversation of life and liberation, these conversations then translated into a perspective that people are living to fill a space in their heart, the heart that was tempered with their very personal upbringing and experience. The artwork "Beholder" then allows you to see the feeling of seeing the said perspective in a form of ceramics as human hearts.

Longing | Shattered - Obscured - Shifted

2022 - Indonesia

Wheel thrown stoneware & terracotta, resin, wooden board & solid wood frame

135 x 65 x 6 cm

The works and their creation process are a reflection of intent, the intent of activity coming from a deeper perspective is a longing. Not a dream that would spark a spirit of the hustle and thrive, but Longing, something that is sweet and bitter due to the fact that the thing we long for feels far away but within our sight.

The clay was intentionally built into a slab by dragging an extended hand, I long for the work to be something so flawless knowing that it is not possible, for most of the time there is not enough room for us to mature if we hold on to our longing. So we have to let go and break it down, sometimes we lose sight of what it is anymore, and only then we are allowed to be mature and in my work case, vitrified. Coming so far we can mend ourselves one by one remembering the things we long for, even though we were shattered, shifted and wrapped, and sometimes obscured over the simplicity of time. By the time we healed, we can look at we are no longer who we were and this way of maturing is a face of life.

Longing Shattered (Natural)  - IDR 20.000.000

Longing Obscured (Black) - IDR 20.000.000

Longing Shifted (White) - IDR 20.000.000

 Impetus

2022 - Indonesia

Stoneware, Hand-built & Wheel-thrown.

30 x 33 x 60 cm

Moments in life when I have such eagerness in my heart for a wish but instead of a wish coming true, life happened in a way that broke my heart. Over time I would look again at my broken heart and see the hole is now a way in and out for life to happen and bloom in a way I probably asked for in silence, and the mind was not big enough to allow or even to understand the scale of my wish. Hence the broken heart to open it.
