Stefanus Endry Pragusta (born in Gunungkidul, 1992) completed his fine arts education studies at UNY Yogyakarta in 2016 and joined Kumonitas Kukomikan while also working as a teacher at Gunungkidul Regency Vocational School. In the last six years, Endry has focused his practice on small-scale 3-dimensional works (art toys/mini sculptures). The process of creating Endry's work uses a lot of resin material, as well as experimenting with various media, mainly made from recycled materials. His works focus on everyday topics and personal conflicts/experiences regarding the world of education.
Endry's work has been exhibited in local and international exhibition formats, such as ALT Philippines, Ace House x Vinyl on Vinyl, Philippines (2024), MoCaf Art Festival, Vinyl on Vinyl, Philippines (2023), ABDW Project, Sinambi Farm, Gunungkidul (2022 ), BWP Value, Art Jakarta (2022) and Equidistant, Tirtodipuran Link (2020)

This work is a small part of a summary of the romanticization of the 2024 election journey. Today society is divided into 3 camps, previously there were only 2. What is unique about this election moment is that the friction has (perhaps) subsided a little, unlike the previous years. Previously we could know and guess what issues they would play. As a minority, previous election issues made me feel uncomfortable in my life, even today I still can feel the roots. More or less, this issue was resurrected, but it didn't have a significant effect.
This year I quite enjoyed the election moment. The issues raised were very interesting: about New Order, Sustainable Development and Change. This offer can be consumed by all levels of society. I think the public can predict tomorrow's discourse by combining political issues that are frequently consumed today. Hopefully we can maintain this momentum in the following years. A moment about people's awareness of building their future through discourse circulating around them.
