Overexploitation Of Sand Mining Leading To Imaginary Landscape: Research-Based Creation by I Wayan Setem

“…When an artist intends to add philosophical value to his creation, he enters two aesthetic exploration spaces; they are the aesthetic concept and the artistic exploration. “The structure of the form shows “the face†of an art work which cannot be separated from how material should be processed, and the “aesthetic structure†treats every “aesthetic thing†as an entity which is caught as a combination of the quality of perception and the common sense processing which are drawn into the metaphysical, ethic, axiological, and epistemological (philosophical) dimensions. …”
