The installation work “Anungga-Rungga (Lingga Yoni)” (1992) is an array of forms consisting of an abstraction of suspended lingga and yoni, flanked on the sides by two gunungan. On the bottow is a steel frame construction, that includes white marble powder arranged in a rectangular form lined with gravel along the perimeter.
This installation work combines two character forms: an abstraction constructed from an image of wayang performance set next to a modern infrastructure construction. This work symbolically expresses the union of lingga and yoni on a stage of life, and this moment is supported and presented in the sturdiness of the modern building construction. This symbolism is a paradox, a contradiction and truth in the unification of traditional and modern values. The union of love in the world can be unlimited by the barriers of cultural values.
