Portrait of Indonesian President Joko Widodo, by Pandi (2018)

'Portrait of President Joko Widodo' by Pandi, acrylic on stretched canvas, unframed. This piece was finished in early 2018 in Bali. It is a charming depiction of the very popular President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, as a young man. He has a serious gaze and firmly held political beliefs. Pandi's use of vivid colour brings life to the canvas and is one of his trademarks. 

About the Artist: I. Nyoman Sutaria, better known as Pandi (born 1980), artist from Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. Pandi is an inspiring self-taught artist with the flare of Picasso and the unrestrained creativity of Jean-Michel Basquiat. He paints birds in all his compositions as a symbol of freedom and peace and because of his family's relationship of trust with these creatures when he was growing up. Pandi's art is a manifestation of his freedom of expression with bright colours, lines, shapes and figures that know no bounds. His style and spirit reflect the innocence of a child with simple but elegant artworks that communicate a sense of joy and harmony.
