BIOGRAPHY

Roby Dwi Antono is a visual artist mainly creating surrealistic paintings as well as sculptures and prints. His work opens a portal to another universe where spaceships, aliens, dinosaurs and creatures with humanly features come together. These surrealistic creations that once lived only in Dwi Antono’s imagination come to life in a new realm on his canvas. Inspired by his childhood memories and love for Fiction movies, his paintings are left for the viewer to interpret. Inspired by artists such as Mark Ryden and Yoshitomo Nara, his work is often referred to as a contemporary juxtaposition of Surrealism and Classical Renaissance imagery. He has been featured both in Indonesia and internationally in numerous solo and group exhibitions.

It draws its inspiration from the best seller movie of the same title, based on Bret Easton Ellis's 1991 novel. The film features Christian Bale playing Patrick Bateman, a wealthy investment banker. Bateman keeps his psychopathic ego hidden until he loses control and his illogical fantasies escalate, causing him to submit to an uncontrollable bloodlust.
