Kelvin Atmadibrata (ID)

March - May 2026

‍

Kelvin Atmadibrata (b. 1988, Indonesia) recruits superpowers awakened by second puberty and adolescent fantasy. Equipped by shōnen characters, kōhai hierarchy and macho ero-kawaii, he often personifies power and strength into partially canon and fan fiction antiheroes to contest the masculine meta and erotica. He works primarily with performances, often accompanied by and translated into drawings, mixed media collages and objects compiled as installations. Approached as bricolages and remixes, Kelvin translates narratives and recreates personifications based on RPGs (Role-playing video games) theories, pop mythologies and fanboy psychology.

‍

At PART, he aims to develop vocabularies of his ongoing visual language of minimalist erotica. By revisiting project from 2025, he will focus on his survey of the mecha-genre and transhumanist fantasy through the lens of performance practices in Austria.
