I Kadek Suardana, known as “Kacor,” was born in Gianyar, Bali, in 1991. A graduate of the Indonesian Institute of Art in Yogyakarta, he chose Sewon, Yogyakarta, as his home and creative hub, where he continually immerses himself in the region’s vibrant artistic scene. Deeply inspired by nature, Suardana finds his muse in landscapes brimming with diverse plants and animals, translating the beauty of flora and fauna into his art. His innovative approach incorporates a unique cut-out technique that brings a dynamic, layered quality to his compositions. Using a tensile method, he skillfully introduces depth and texture, creating immersive, textured worlds that feel both tactile and surreal.
