In Erica Hestu Wahyuni’s ‘Keluarga,’ the figure(s) loom unusually large, dominating a space usually occupied by the twin themes of Activity and Ambience/Environment. While there is the ubiquitous pet cat, two large cicak (lizards) tarry on the wall as if witnessing the living-room drama of a woman on the sofa holding and feeding a bawling baby while looking at a bird in a cage held up by a toothy girl in denim overall. A paraffin lamp seems to provide the only light to the interiors. Born in Yogyakarta, Erica has been painting since primary-school days before enrolling at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts in Yogyakarta and the Surikov Art Institute in Moscow, Russia. Her early mentors were Suharto PR and Herry Wibowo.
