Toys are one source of inspiration and icons that are used to paint ideas about human culture. Throughout this residency, this artist, with an interest in history, religiosity and education, has wrestled with ‘kitschy’ plastic toys while pondering questions about the culture of imitating that she often encountered in Yogya. Imitating, at a certain level is actually one of the oldest human traits and part of creativity it self. However, how far this can be carried into the creative processes of an individual is a question that must eventually be asked. Ellen Rodenberg’s installation is a search for an answer at the same time as it is an collection of impressions of human behavior in Yogyakarta, her home country, the Netherlands, and in every part of the world.
