            Wiharso's enormous paintings are doors that open and invite the viewer 
            into the eery corridors of his mind. His palette of dark blues, black, 
            gold and red refers to the traditional muted colors of Javanese royalty 
            and mystical life while his imagery draws on a complex blend of traditional 
            and modern influences, ranging from tradtional Javanese wayang figures 
            to Bart Simpson. Entang's works on canvas in Pancaroba Indonesia are 
            built up with complex layers of oil pencil and paint that he has scratched 
            off to reveal forms that hover between imagination and reality. |
