<p><strong> </strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><span style="color:#008000;">Sato Shintaro interviewed by Jim Allen Abel a.k.a jimbo + Nuraini Juliastuti</span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong>1. How do you define your works?  Can you summarize your works in three keywords?</strong></p>
<p>Twilight,  Fire escape,  Tokyo .</p>
<p><strong>2. What things that draw you to photography?</strong></p>
<p>Maybe densely populated area fascinates me.</p>
<p><strong>3. Your works seem so simple yet complicated. Can you tell us your work process?</strong></p>
<p>At first I search for shooting locations during the daytime.  Then I take a picture of that place in the hour from dusk until dark. I bring films to the lab and after development, I make prints from the negative film myself. It often takes several days to finish one photograph.</p>
<p><strong>4. Seen from your works, city lights and urban architecture are things that interested you the most. you always manage to draw people away from your photographs of crowded cities and streets. You seem not to be interested in depicting human presence. Why?</strong></p>
<p><strong><span id="more-605"></span> </strong>I am fascinated with what people make, instead of people itself. But someone said to me that I took a picture of people, not buildings. I think it is interesting. Paradoxically I think my photos might show the presense of people.</p>
<p><strong>5. What particular things that underlie the making of &#8220;Twilight Zone&#8221; works? </strong></p>
<p>In Twilight Zone  every elements of my early childhood exist. I lived in a housing complex which was located in east Tokyo that I am shooting. I lived on the 12th floor from which I could see a chimney, river and the town. I think that kind of personal experience underlies.</p>
<p><strong>6. What is your upcoming photography project?</strong></p>
<p>I will continue Twilight series and I am taking a picture of Tokyo Sky Tree which will be the first or second highest tower in the world and is now under construction.</p>
<p><strong>7. Do you make a living exclusively from photography? Do you take commercial works too?</strong></p>
<p>Sometimes I take commerecial works. And I teach how to use a large format camera in special school.</p>
<p><strong>8. During your work as an artist, what are your inspirations?</strong></p>
<p>Literature, critique, movie ,,, after all everything.</p>
<p><strong>9. How do you see Japan today, especially its young generation?</strong></p>
<p>In Japan photographers&#8217; level is very high. Young photographers also make good pictures.  But the photo market is very immature in Japan compared with Europe and America. So I want to show my photos to foreign people.</p>
<p><strong>10. Thanks for your time to answer my question. Any last comment?</strong></p>
<p>Yesterday I got the anouncement that I won the photografphic society of Japan new photographer prize.</p>
<p>for full detail <a href="http://shinsato.cool.ne.jp/">let&#8217;s Jump! </a></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-612" title="mid2" src="http://mes56.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/mid2.jpg?w=604&#038;h=269" alt="Kabuki-Batting + Shinkoiwayuki" width="604" height="269" />Kabuki-Batting + Shinkoiwayuki</p>
<p><strong><em>1. Bagaimana mendefinisikan karya anda? dapatkah anda meringkasnya ke dalam 3 kata?</em></strong></p>
<p><em>Temaram lampu kota, Pintu darurat dan kota Tokyo.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>2. apa saja yang anda visualisasikan dalam fotografi?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Mungkin tempat-tempat yang padat penduduknya menarik untukku.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>3. karya-karya anda terlihat sangat simpel dan tidak rumit. Dapatkah anda menceritakan bagaimana prosesnya?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Pertama aku mencari lokasi pengambilan gambar di waktu siang. lalu aku memotret tempat tersebut pada waktu senja hingga hari gelap. Aku membawa film ke lab dan setelah itu aku membuat sendiri print dari negatifnya.seringkali membutuhkan waktu beberapa hari untuk menyelesaikan satu foto saja.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>4. Dilihat dari karya-karya anda, cahaya kota dan arsitektur urban menjadi ketertarikan utama. Anda sepertinya sengaja menghindarkan orang-orang   dari kota-kota dan jalanan yang padat. Anda  terlihat tidak tertarik untuk menggambarkan keberadaan manusia. Mengapa?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Aku terpesona pada apa yang dibuat oleh manusia, termasuk  kepada manusianya itu sendiri, tapi seseorang bilang kepadaku bahwa aku semestinya mengambil foto manusianya, bukan gedung-gedungnya. Aku pikir ini menarik. Secara paradoks aku pikir foto-fotoku mungkin menampilkan kehadiran manusia.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>5. Apa hal istimewa yang mendasari pembuatan Twilight zone project ini?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Di “twilight zone”  setiap elemen dari masa kecilku berada disitu. Aku dulu hidup di kompleks pe rumahan disebelah timur kota  Tokyo  yang aku foto. Aku dulu tinggal di lantai 12 dimana dari situ aku dapat melihat cerobong asap, sungai dan kota. Aku pikir ini memang didasari oleh pengalaman personal.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>6. Apa proyek anda selanjutnya?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Aku akan meneruskan seri seri twilight dan aku akan memotret di Tokyo Sky Tree dimana akan menjadi menara pertama atau kedua di dunia dan sekerang masih di dalam proses konstruksi.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>7. Apakah anda membangun karir menjadi eksklusif dalam fotografi. Atau  anda juga bekerja secara komersil?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Kadangkala aku mengambil pekerjaan-pekerjaan komersil juga, dan aku mengajar di sebuah sekolah spesial untuk mengajar bagaimana menggunakan teknik fotografi  kamera format besar.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>8. Selama karier sebagai seniman, apa saja yang menginsprasi anda ?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Literatur, kriitk, film dan.. apa saja..</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>9.Apa yang anda lihat dari Jepang saat ini? terutama generasi mudanya?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Di Jepang saat ini, fotografer memiliki level yang sangat tinggi. Fotografer-fotografer muda juga membuat foto-foto yang bagus. Tetapi pasar fotografi  belumlah begitu  berkembang di Jepang  jika dibandingkan dengan Eropa dan Amerika. Jadi aku ingin memperlihatkan foto-fotoku kepada orang asing.</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em><strong>10. Terimakasih atas waktu dan jawaban anda. Apa komentar terakhir?</strong></em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Kemarin aku mendapat pemberitahuan bahwa aku memenangkan hadiah dari perkumpulan fotografi Jepang sebagai fotografer baru.</em><em><br />

<p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Li Wei interview by Jim Allen Abel (Jimbo).</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">When you started working with photography medium? And why photography?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">I started my photography career from 1999. It&#8217;s a kind of mix of performance and photography.This kind of art can express my artworks.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">You made works with performance. What did you want  to say with that works?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">Performance can lead audiences to my artworks visually. Sometimes they are be a part of my performance, can experience. To let them feel the suitation between illusion and reality.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">Do you have any time limitation in the process of this project ? and do you have any new project right now?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">I don&#8217;t have time limit. I follow my intuition. Society and environment gives me different thoughts. My artworks have many different ways of expression but the theme won&#8217;t be changed a lot. New works are fufulling my art dreams, to make my art language more powerful.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">Who is your influence in most of your works?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">Many artists, society and environments affect my art.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"><span id="more-576"></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">In your opinion, what is the most interesting thing in your works?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">The most interesting part of my art is I use illusive reality of human to construct my works. So they are humorous.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">What’s china means to you?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">China is my homeland. It nourishes me and gives my many thoughts. Also I&#8217;m growing up with the fast speed of china&#8217;s development. To know much better about the world and to think about it.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">Is there any connection between the reality around you and your works? </span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">Thoughts of my works are the real living condition of human beings.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">Are you practicing kungfu, taichi or any martial arts to support  your performance?</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;">Many aspects in it. KongFu is a kind of philosophy, not only a martial arts. What I use in my work is the philosophy.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">What does photograph means to you?</span></span></strong></p>

<p><strong><em>Sejak kapan anda mulai berkarya dengan media fotografi? Dan kenapa medianya fotografi?</em></strong><br />
<em>Aku mulai berkarya dengan fotografi sejak tahun 1999. Itu seperti memadukan performance dan fotografi. Dengan media fotografi seperti itu, aku dapat mengekspresikan karyaku.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Dalam membuat karya, anda melakukan performance. Apa sebenarnya yang anda ingin sampaikan?</em></strong><br />
<em>Performance dapat membimbing audiens untuk memahami karya-karyaku secara visual. Kadangkala mereka menjadi bagian dari performance serta menjadi bagian dari pengalaman, hal tersebut bertujuan agar mereka merasakan situasi antara ilusi dan kenyataan.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Sampai kapan anda akan membuat fotografi project “performance” seperti itu? Ataukah saat ini anda mempunyai project dengan gagasan lebih baru?</em></strong><br />
<em>Aku tidak punya batas waktu, aku mengikuti intuisiku saja, keadaan sosial dan lingkungan memberiku pemikiran yang berbeda. Karya-karyaku memiliki cara yang berbeda dalam berekspresi tetapi temanya tetap tidak berubah banyak. Karya-karyaku yang baru penuh dengan mimpi-mimpi artistikku, untuk membuat bahasa karyaku lebih kuat</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Siapa atau apa yang paling mempengaruhi anda dalam membuat karya?</em></strong><br />
<em>Banyak seniman, keadaan sosial dan lingkungan yang mempengaruhi karyaku.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Menurut anda, apa yang menarik dari karya-karya anda?</em></strong><br />
<em>Bagian paling menarik dari karyaku adalah aku menggunakan ilusi realitas manusia untuk membangun karyaku, sehingga karya-karyaku terkesan penuh humor.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Apa artinya “China” bagi anda?</em></strong><br />
<em>China adalah tanah airku, yang memupukku dan memberiku banyak pikiran. aku juga tumbuh dalam kemajuan china yang amat cepat. untuk mengetahui lebih baik tentang dunia dan memikirkannya.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Apa yang menghubungkan karyamu dengan kenyataan hidup yang ada di sekitar anda?</em></strong><br />
<em>Pemikiran dari karya-karyaku adalah kondisi nyata kehidupan kaum manusia.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Apakah anda latihan Kungfu, Taichi atau semacam ilmu beladiri untuk mendukung performance yang anda lakukan?</em></strong><br />
<em>Banyak aspek di dalamnya. Kongfu adalah sejenis filosofi, bukan hanya sebuah seni bela diri. apa yang aku pakai dalam karyaku adalah sebuah filosofi.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Apakah artinya fotografi untuk anda?</em></strong><br />
<em>Fotografi adalah hal yang paling penting dalam perjalanan kehidupanku.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Terimakasih untuk waktu yang anda berikan untuk menjawab beberapa pertanyaanku. Ada komentar terakhir?</strong></em><br />
<em>Bravo..Bravo.. untuk anda, untuk kantor berita mes56 dan untuk negeri anda!</em></p>

<p><strong>Holiday Project </strong>(2004)</p>
<p>Positively, Photography supposed to be an ideal means to reconfigure the world&#8217;s facts and what really happened inside, it also could be an important instrument of Cartesian accordingly, tracking any footprint left, besides its neutrality and impersonality. The emerging of Digital technology as if an ironic progress for the photography world, especially to its ability to change, add and even &#8220;create&#8221; the event.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll tried to make a simple simulation through all of those works on human perception towards events and how technology could bring those events altogether.</p>
<p>Some people on our works are ordinary men around MES 56 neighborhood, which are not the citizen of Jakarta and already had much presume about “A (short) visit to Jakarta”. We asked them which photos they&#8217;d prefer bringing home in so many places they&#8217;d choose if they have an occasion going to the city? To Mr. Rudi, Holiday in Jakarta is visiting Monas (National Monument)! To Mr. Jacky who had a different point of view, he suppose Dunia Fantasi (The Fantasy World), and Jaya Ancol Dream Park (Taman Impian Jaya Ancol) is a better place to spend to, and Monas to him is no more than just a symbol of city identity, and not a tourist destination. <span id="more-512"></span></p>
<p>Maybe they had ever been in Jakarta and visit some places there, but maybe they hadn&#8217;t at all. Their memories declare something about a visit to Jakarta and those couldn&#8217;t be a complicated thing to deal with. Eventually, by means of digital photography, they could be there whenever they wanted to. A    holiday to Jakarta is presenting at a snapshot.</p>
<p>It just left to be an illusion. Actually, it only it became possible, WE WILL BRING ALL OF THEM TO ALL THOSE PLACES AND WE GLADLY TAKE THEIR PICTURE WITH DIGITAL CAMERA<strong> <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  </strong> <strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-514" title="mas-ipan-mbak-naniek" src="http://mes56.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/mas-ipan-mbak-naniek.jpg?w=604&#038;h=226" alt="mas-ipan-mbak-naniek" width="604" height="226" /></strong> <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Holiday Project</strong> (2004) <em></em></p>
<p><em>Fotografi, secara positivistik, dianggap sebuah perangkat yang ideal untuk memahami kebenaran tentang dunia dan segala peristiwa di dalamnya, sekaligus sebuah instrumen penting Cartesian, yang mampu merekam jejak-jejak, sekaligus diandalkan netralitas dan impersonalitasnya. Kehadiran teknologi digital seolah menjadi sebuah perkembangan yang ironik bagi fotografi, terutama pada kemampuannya untuk merubah, menambah bahkan menciptakan “peristiwa”.</em> <em></em></p>
<p><em>Dalam karya ini, kami mencoba membuat sebuah simulasi sederhana tentang persepsi manusia terhadap peristiwa dan bagaimana teknologi mampu menghadirkan peristiwa tersebut.</em> <em></em></p>
<p><em>Pada awalnya, orang-orang dalam karya kami adalah warga di sekitar Ruang MES56, yang bukan orang Jakarta dan memiliki beberapa persepsi tertentu tentang “berkunjung ke Jakarta”. Bagi Pak Rudi, berkunjung ke Jakarta adalah ke Monas, bagi Mbak Adin, berkunjung ke Jakarta adalah Ancol, dst. Dan untuk melengkapi simulasi ini kami juga akan melakukan interaksi dengan beberapa orang yang berada di Jakarta yang tepatnya di sekitar lingkungan CCF (culture centre of france) Salemba untuk mengajak “berkunjung ke Jogja”.</em><em> </em></p>
<p><em></em> <em>Mungkin mereka pernah ke Jakarta atau Jogja dan mengunjungi tempat-tempat tersebut, mungkin pula belum pernah. Memori mereka menyatakan sesuatu tentang pergi ke Jakarta atau Jogja, dan hal tersebut tidaklah harus menjadi rumit. Dengan proses fotografi digital, akhirnya mereka bisa “berada” di sana kapanpun mereka inginkan. </em></p>
<p><em>Sebuah peristiwa mereka “berkunjung ke Jakarta dan Jogja” tiba-tiba hadir begitu saja.</em><em> </em> <em>Namun toh peristiwa tersebut hanya sebuah ilusi. Sebenarnya, seandainya memungkinkan, KAMI AKAN MEMBAWA MEREKA SEMUA KE TEMPAT-TEMPAT TERSEBUT DAN KAMI POTRET DENGAN KAMERA DIGITAL</em> <strong> <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </strong> <strong> </strong> <strong></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-477" title="scifi007" src="http://mes56.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/scifi007.jpg?w=604&#038;h=483" alt="scifi007" width="604" height="483" /></p>
<p><strong>Statement</strong></p>
<p>My practice is concerned with exploring the fascination that the British public has with American popular culture and the sub-cultural world of fandom. In the images, I have shown people in their own homes and environments wearing costumes that they would be dressed in to attend events with other like-minded individuals. It seeks to offer a glimpse into seemingly ordinary lives of my subjects and allows the private to become public. The work hints at the depth of people&#8217;s fantasies and the methods they employ to adopt this culture as part of their own lifestyle as a means of escapism.</p>
<p>The work makes a political reference to globalisation and America&#8217;s ongoing ability to infiltrate all cultures via various channels of media. Much of daily life is influenced by &#8216;Americanisms&#8217; whether through language, food or fashion, which can often be traced back to music videos, the Hollywood film industry, advertising and American sit-coms.<br />
<span id="more-476"></span>By working in the individual&#8217;s homes and personal spaces, I have sought to present my sitters in a their very British &#8216;found&#8217; environments and to allow the viewer to evaluate the juxtaposition of cultures and how neither appear to sit comfortably with each other. Although presented in the context of their homes and personal environments, a certain amount of vulnerability and discomfort radiates from the sitters and is passed onto the viewer. Not quite in full character, they seem at odds with their surroundings. The work is intend to make the viewer question the perception that others have of themselves as much as they allow us to question our perception of others.</p>
<p>The title of the work (Land of The Free) refers to the American Anthem, and makes reference to Archibald MacLeish&#8217;s 1938 book of FSA photographs. It also refers to a degree of irony when talking about personal &#8216;freedoms&#8217; when one would choose<br />
to &#8216;copy&#8217; the look of cowboys, sci-fi characters and pop stars. I want the viewer to see the relation to ideology; here are the effects of American mass-culture; consumed and re-enacted by British people in my photographs.</p>
<p>I seek to make the images on my own terms. I aim to marry the two genres of portraiture and documentary. I want to take documentary photography out of the context of realism, and encourage the viewer to ask questions about the politics within the image and question the implications of documentary photography being perceived as a true representation of reality.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-504" title="scifi0221" src="http://mes56.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/scifi0221.jpg?w=604&#038;h=455" alt="scifi0221" width="604" height="455" /></p>
<p><em>Usaha saya berhubungan dengan dengan pengeksplorasian antusiasme rakyat Inggris terhadap kebudayaan pop Amerika dan dunia ke-penggemaran sub-kultural lainnya.  Dalam imaji-imaji tersebut, saya memaparkan subyek-subyek saya di rumah dan lingkungan mereka sendiri, dengan kostum yang mungkin mereka pakai dalam event-event yang mereka hadiri dengan individu-individu lain yang sepemikiran. Tujuannya adalah untuk menawarkan pandangan lain terhadap kehidupan sehari-hari subyek-subyek saya, sehingga dengan demikian, memindahkan yang sebelumnya privat ke ranah publik. Karya ini meng-implor fantasi dari banyak orang dan metode yang mereka pakai untuk mengadopsi budaya tersebut ke dalam kehidupan mereka sebagai suatu upaya pelarian.</em></p>
<p><em>Karya tersebut secara politis menyorot pula pada globalisasi dan kemampuan Amerika yang canggih dalam menginfiltrasi budaya-budaya lain lewat sarana yang tak terbilang banyaknya. Tak terhitung banyaknya kehidupan sehari-hari yang telah dipengaruhi oleh “Amerikanisme” entah itu lewat bahasa, makanan atau fashion yang, seringnya, dapat dilacak kembali ke video-video musik, industri film Hollywood, advertising atau komedi situasi-komedi situasi yang menjadi sumbernya.</em></p>
<p><em>Dengan bekerja baik di rumah atau lingkungan pribadi dari subyek-subyek saya, saya bertujuan untuk menempatkan mereka dalam lingkungan yang benar-benar “inggris” dan mempersilahkan para pemirsa karya itu untuk menilai sendiri juxtaposisi  dari dua kebudayaan tersebut dan bagaimana, sebenarnya, keduanya tidak begitu cocok satu sama lain. Walaupun telah ditempatkan di lingkungannya sendiri, sejumlah kekosongan dan ketidaknyamanan dari para subyek merembes keluar dan sampai kepada para pemirsa. Walaupun tidak seluruhnya, tetapi para subyek tampak sangat tidak sesuai dengan lingkungan mereka sendiri. Karya ini bertujuan untuk membuat para pemirsa mempertanyakan kembali persepsi yang dimiliki orang lain terhadap pribadi masing-masing sama banyaknya dengan mempertanyakan persepsi kita sendiri terhadap orang lain.</em></p>
<p><em>Judul karya tersebut (Land of The Free), mengacu pada lagu kebangsaan Amerika Serikat, dan mengambil referensi dari buku foto FSA karya Archibald MacLeish di tahun 1938. Karya ini juga mengangkat ironi dari keberadaan “kebebasan” pribadi ketika seseorang malah cenderung untuk “meng-kopi” penampilan dari koboi-koboi, karakter-karakter sains-fiksi atau pop-star. Saya ingin para penikmat karya saya untuk mengenali adanya relasi terhadap ideologi: Inilah pengaruh kultur massa Amerika; dikonsumsi dan diwujudkan kembali oleh rakyat Inggris, lewat foto-foto saya.Saya bertujuan untuk membuat imaji menurut kehendak saya sendiri. Tujuan saya adalah untuk mengawinkan dua genre fotografi, potret dengan dokumenter. Saya ingin membawa genre fotografi dokumenter ke dalam konteks realisme, dan mendorong para pemirsa untuk mempertanyakan segi politik dari imaji-imaji tersebut dan mempertanyakan implikasi yang muncul ketika fotografi dokumenter dipakai sebagai representasi dari realitas yang sebenarnya .

<p><strong>Introduction</strong><br />
Loo, john, dunny, bathroom, lavatory, outhouse, WC, longdrop, commodities, powder-room, crapper, throne, porcelain god, washroom, toilet, can, urinal, facilities, pisser, comfort station, head, water-closet, little boys’ room, shitter, pot, nettie, bog, …So many names refer to the same mundane object. This boundless terminology reflects human beings’ natural fascination with the toilet. Taboo subjects that have provoked deep interest throughout the ages are known by many names – consider death, drugs and copulation, to name a few. Terms for the toilet all describe the smallest room in the house, in the backyard, on the boat, or elsewhere. This list is from English alone. To compile a complete list of toilet terminology from all languages would fill volumes. Regardless of how it is referred to, the universal aspect cannot be denied: every human being on earth uses the toilet.</p>
<p><span id="more-442"></span> Why toilets? The subject is not nearly as frivolous as it may appear at first glance. Toilets are bay windows with a view on to a given population. The term ‘toiletology’ has yet to be coined, although the study of toilets provides a cultural and sociological analysis of the people who occupy different regions throughout the world. The variety of toilets in different countries is astounding. Toilets often (though not always) reflect the development of a given country or region via design, placement, material and mechanics. Aren’t toilets the same everywhere? In a limited geographical area, perhaps. On an international scale, toilets are very, very different.</p>
<p>The use of the toilet transcends all race, religion, age and social class. From the most impoverished to the highest royalty, each and every one of us bows to the basics of bodily function. Whether one does so in a ditch or on a jewel encrusted throne, the result is the same. The president, the cashier, the supermodel, the writer, the lawyer and the farmer all find themselves subject to this most basic of acts. It is physical gratification from the earliest age on up. The act is philosophical – emptying the body empties the head as well. For how many busy and stressed people is this moment one of the few instants of solitary relief, privacy and contemplation in an otherwise hectic day? Many people confess to having great thoughts, ideas and insights while seated on the toilet.</p>
<p>Why do pigs clean toilets in India? Why are there entire fields of toilets in South Africa? Why are there toilets made of solid gold in Hong Kong? Why are there so many toilets on stilts in Panama? Why don’t the Turkish use toilet paper? Why do the French squat? Why do the Costa Ricans squat? Why don’t Brazilians flush toilet paper? Why do Japanese toilets have eight buttons? Why do urinals pop up out of the ground in London? Why does the space shuttle make ‘people patties’? The answers to these probing questions lie within. Through the pages that follow, take a fascinating and explicit voyage through societies around the globe, continent by continent. A deeper cultural understanding of the world is within reach via the most raw and honest tattle–tale of human civilization: the toilet.</p>
<p><em>Terdapat begitu banyak nama untuk satu obyek remeh ini. Terminologi yang tanpa batas tersebut sebenarnya merefleksikan ketertarikan manusia secara alamiah pada toilet. Toilet merupakan subyek tabu yang telah memicu ketertarikan selama berabad-abad sejajar dengan, beberapa di antaranya, kematian, drugs serta persetubuhan. Segala istilah yang mengacu pada toilet di atas, seluruhnya menggambarkan ruangan terkecil di dalam rumah, di halaman belakang, dalam kapal, atau tempat yang lain. Istilah-istilah di atas bahkan hanya berasal dari bahasa Inggris saja. Mengumpulkan berbagai istilah toilet dari seluruh ragam bahasa tentunya akan menghabiskan tempat yang tidak sedikit Terlepas dari banyaknya istilah yang dipakai, aspek universal dari toilet tidak dapat dinafikkan: setiap manusia di muka bumi menggunakannya.</em></p>
<p><em>Mengapa toilet? Permasalahan ini tidak se-lucu kelihatannya. Toilet adalah suatu rana bidik yang mengarah pada jumlah suatu populasi. Istilah “toiletologi” mungkin belum diciptakan, tapi penelitian terhadap permasalahan toilet mampu menciptakan suatu analisis kebudayaan dan sosiologis terhadap masyarakat yang tinggal di belahan dunia yang berbeda. Keragaman toilet di negara-negara yang berbeda sangatlah menakjubkan. Toilet sering (walaupun tidak selalu) merefleksikan perkembangan dari negara yang bersangkutan, jika ditilik dari segi desain, penempatan, bahan dan sistem mekanik yang dipakai. Bukannya di manapun semua toilet sama? Dalam suatu area geografis yang terbatas, mungkin. Tetapi dalam skala internasional, bagaimanapun juga, toilet berbeda satu sama lain.</em></p>
<p><em>Penggunaan toilet melampaui segala ras, agama, umur serta kelas sosial. Dari orang yang paling miskin sampai bangsawan tertinggi, setiap dari kita patuh pada kebutuhan badaniah yang mendasar. Entah kita melakukannya di selokan atau di singgasana bertatahkan berlian, hasilnya selalu sama. Presiden, kasir, supermodel, penulis, pengacara dan petani, semua merupakan budak dari aksi yang paling mendasar ini. Hal itu merupakan sebentuk gratifikasi badaniah yang telah mulai semenjak usia dini. Aksi itu sendiri sangatlah filosofis–dengan mengosongkan badan, kita mengosongkan pula pikiran. Sudah berapa banyak orang-orang sibuk dan mengalami stres merasakan momen yang penuh kelegaan, privasi dan kontemplasi dalam hari yang super sibuk? Banyak orang mengaku bahwa mereka mendapat pemikiran, ide ataupun pandangan hebat justru manakala mereka sedang menggunakan toilet. </em></p>
<p><em>Mengapa babi-babi membersihkan toilet di India? Mengapa ada toilet satu lapangan penuh di Afrika Selatan? Mengapa ada toilet yang terbuat dari emas murni di Hong Kong? Mengapa ada begitu banyak toilet yang menggunakan penopang di Panama? Mengapa orang Turki tidak menggunakan tisu toilet? Mengapa orang Perancis berjongkok kala menggunakan toilet? Demikian pula orang Costa Rica? Mengapa orang Brazil tidak mengguyur tisu toiletnya? Mengapa toilet di Jepang memiliki delapan tombol? Mengapa di London pispot dibuat seakan-akan menyembul dari tanah? Mengapa pesawat ulang-alik menyediakan “popok”? Jawaban dari pertanyaan-pertanyaan tersebut dapat anda temui di sini. Dalam halaman-halaman yang akan menyusul anda akan dibawa ke dalam perjalanan yang menarik dan mendetil ke tengah masyarakat yang ada di seluruh dunia, benua demi benua. Pengertian kultural yang komprehensif ternyata bisa dicapai dengan melalui kisah yang paling kasar dan jujur dari peradaban manusia: toilet.<br />
(alih bahasa Dion Wicaksono)</em></p>

<p><strong>Statement</strong></p>
<p><strong>What Will Be There</strong><strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p>&#8220;This is a place that breathes a never existed past. Over here, the future is merely more than upcoming past. Someday, someone will learn to walk over here, someday someone will breathe their last breath. But for now, it&#8217;s still deserted&#8221;. This is an investigation on a place that yet has to be turned into living space. It&#8217;s been prepared for the working to begin, but this hasn&#8217;t happened. Since then, nature started reclaiming the area.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;ini adalah tempat bagi masa lalu yang tak pernah muncul. Di sini, masa depan hanyalah sebentuk masa lalu yang segera datang. Suatu hari nanti, seseorang akan belajar untuk melangkah ke sini, suatu hari seseorang akan melepaskan nafas terakhirnya. Tetapi sekarang, tidak ada seorang pun di sini.&#8221; Ini adalah sebuah penelitian terhadap tempat yang belum juga dikembalikan ke dalam kondisi yang layak hidup. Segala persiapan telah dilakukan, tapi tak kunjung berjalan. Sementara itu, alam telah mulai mengambil alih area tersebut. </em><em> </em></p>
