About this Song
eńau and Ari Lesmana join creative forces on Sesi Potret, a sound rooted in the vast, diverse creative landscape of Indonesia, held in this catalogue as part of a growing collection of works that resist the oversimplified genre categorization that often shapes how audiences and archivists engage with creative output from across the global south. For decades, mainstream cataloguing frameworks developed in western contexts have forced works from non-western creative ecosystems into narrow, pre-existing genre boxes that erase the layers of cultural and artistic experimentation that define so many contemporary works, reducing complex, nuanced creations to generic labels that tell audiences more about the limitations of the systems built to organize art than they do about the art itself.
