Recommended for participants age 15+

Jatiwangi art Factory (JaF) is an Indonesian artistic collective of over fifty multimedia artists, musicians, and curators whose artistic practice emphasizes local rural life in relation to land and the terracotta industry in the Jatiwangi District of Indonesia.

JaF members Muhammad Pipin Kaspin and Tedi Nurmanto are also part of a terracotta ensemble called Lair. Join them to create flutes and percussion instruments out of clay before coming together to create beautiful music. Get ready for an afternoon of experimentation and collaboration.

We encourage participation from people who are actively engaged in local community building and musicians of all levels. Participants should be open to collaboration and experimentation. This workshop will serve as a social gathering space, prioritizing process over product.

This program will take place March 14-18, 2022 from 2–5pm daily.

Sound of Clay is a part of The Shape of Sound, a curatorial project organized by Sebastian De Line as a part of the 2022 Curatorial Fellowship program, made possible by the generous support of TD Bank Group through the TD Ready Commitment, and made in partnership with the Gardiner Museum.
