Her painting titled ''Lingga-Yoni (1993)'' and her installation titled ''Etalase (1994)'' , bring together disparate symbols of Islam, Western culture, and sexuality.

Arahmaiani (Arahmayani Feisal; born May 21, 1961) is an Indonesian artist born in Bandung and based in Yogyakarta, Central Java, Indonesia. Arahmaiani is considered by many to be one of the most respected and iconic contemporary artists, specifically in pioneering performance art in Southeast Asia. Arahmaiani frequently uses art as a means of critical commentary on social, religion, gender and cultural issues.[1]
Early life and education
[edit]Arahmaiani was born in Bandung, Indonesia on May 21, 1961. Her father was an Islamic scholar and her mother is of Javanese Hindu-Buddhist Extraction. Her name represents the syncretic mixture of two different cultures that she experienced in her upbringing. As she readily explains that "Arahma" goes back to the Arabic word meaning "loving“ while "iani/yani“ comes from a Hindi word meaning "human being“.[2] As a child, Feisal was ambitious about growing up to become a prophet. When revealing her aspirations to her father, he quickly dismissed her, noting that, "only men can be prophets."[3]
As an art student she felt let down by the educational system in her country because it did not connect her with real life. So she decided to create her own art on the streets and discovered in an intuitive way what performance art was all about.[4] Feisal's indignation of Indonesia's academic system and its dismissal of art studies eventually lead to her departure from her home country in the early 1980s.[5] She would later utilize this underlying disdain for Indonesia's academic practices through her performative artwork.
Although many refer to Arahmaiani as a feminist artist, Feisal does not accept this label, stating that, "The feminist label, without any further contextualization, would not encapsulate the multidimensionality of the work, which itself reflects the complex interweaving between class, culture, religion and the natural environment in Indonesia and elsewhere."[6]
Arahmaiani studied at the Faculty of Fine Art and Design, Bandung Institute of Technology and finished her study in 1992. She also went to the Academie voor Beeldende Kunst, Enschede, the Netherlands in 1983 and Paddington Art School, Sydney, Australia in 1985.[7]
Works
[edit]Though best known as a performance artist,[8] she also employs painting, drawing, sculpture, video, poetry, dance, and installation.[9] The thematic material of Arahmaiani's work deals with certain issues related to the discrimination and violence against women, the oppression of women's bodies by men, religion in modern society, Western commercial imperialism, and global industrialization.[4] Since the early 1980s, Arahmaiani's works have generated hostility on the part of Islamic community leaders and political authorities resulting in her short imprisonment in 1983.[10]
Rooted in her rejection of Indonesia's limited scope of academics and concern of "how images of mass culture had shaped most Indonesians' worldview",[11] her well-noted work, titled Newspaper Man (1981), showed Arahmaiani wrapped head-to-toe in newspaper advertisements while she walked down the streets and into malls of Badung.[11]
Her painting titled Lingga-Yoni (1993) and her installation titled Etalase (1994) , bring together disparate symbols of Islam, Western culture, and sexuality. Etalase consisted of objects such as the Quran, a Buddha statue, a mirror, a pack of condoms, a Coca-Cola bottle, a box of soil, a fan, a small rebana (traditional tambourine) and her photo placed in the same museum vitrine display case. Both of the works have generated a very strong reaction from members of a Muslim fundamentalist group during their first display in Jakarta, Indonesia in 1994. Similarly, another performance given by Feisal in 1995, titled Sacred Coke,[12] surrounded the use of Coca-Cola bottles to represent issues of Americanization and commodification. The works were immediately censored and Arahmaiani herself received death threats which then led her to leave the country to Australia temporarily.[10][13] Because of the poor condition of the original Lingga-Yoni, Arahmaiani made a new version of the painting for the exhibition at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art in 2013.[13]
At one point in her life, Arahmaiani was working for one of the largest newspapers in Central Java. For four years, she worked as a columnist and often brought up critical issues about the practice of Islamic culture before being fired for criticizing Islam. In a recent interview, Arahmaiani stated that coming from a mixed of Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and Animist background, she wanted to make some sort of contribution to the conversation.[14]
Arahmaiani exhibited in the Indonesian pavilion at the 50th Venice Biennale in 2003, along with other prominent Indonesian artists, Dadang Christianto, Tisna Sanjaya and Made Wianta. The presentation was titled Paradise Lost: Mourning of the World.[2]
