Sakitkuning is a collective established by a group of students from the Jakarta Art Institute[indonesia]. The group of individuals that have come together in this collective have different artistic backgrounds: visual arts, cinematography, and performance art. Using such a variety of artistic disciplines, sakitkuningCollectivo seems to always be producing work, they have multi-media art exhibitions in which the presented material is not any longer conventional or tied in with only one art disciplin, but is more collaborative, explorative, experimental and rushes by various disciplines that raise themes and issues that are recent, factual and sometimes phenomenal and spectacular.

Within sakitkuningCollectivo all members are brought together and play around to bring out their forms of expression which are freed from the conventional expectations of art. They try to explore and produce creative ideas (or ideas that are not creative at all) without the limits imposed by the subjugated areas of art which merely move in one field. And then they try to present this dream on the stage, as a part of some reality. Art and beauty don’t become destinations, but tools for destinations that they intend to reach, meaning social, moral and even spritual messages. Something which the work of sakitkuningColectivo clearly doesn’t want to be is commercial. SakitkuningColectivo is always more focused on urban moral and social issues; it’s character, conditions and continuity, it’s people and communities. As well as some phenomena that exist within these, including aspects that slip away from the observation of the majority of the people.
