Irfan Hendrian is an artist, industrial printmaker, and graphic designer known for his formal explorations in abstraction. Working mainly with paper, his interest is in the Bauhaus approach and method: to reduce, subtract, and simplify everything to its most sublime, essential, and substantial state.
Hendrian values efficient, logical, and utilitarian modes of thinking and acting which are reflected directly in his work. Collage provides a methodology that maintains Hendrian’s purist approach to materials, utilizing paper as a raw material with sculptural capabilities. Rather than creating images, he believes that through composing a visual arrangement of objects, a particular aesthetic value emerges.
He has held several solo shows, these include Incognito at Art Jakarta, Jakarta, Indonesia (2022); Constructed _scape at Sullivan+Strumpf Singapore (2020); SANS, at Sullivan+Strumpf Singapore (2018); Terenne at Jeonbuk Museum of Art, South Korea (2016). Hendrian's works are in the in the collection of Museum MACAN (Jakarta, Indonesia), Singapore Art Museum (Singapore), and Tumurun Museum (Solo, Indonesia).
