Seni Tiga #11: Dulu. Saat Itu.
Dulu. Saat Itu. — which translates to “Then. That Moment.” — is an exploration in memory. This performance considers the moments in our lives that we revisit repeatedly, how those instances resonate in the present, and the way that memory reverberates throughout time. Recollection is both a beautiful and painful thing, but it's inevitable that we confront the past. This show is special to us, the creators, because it has been one of our enduring experiences of 2020. We began devising it in February, and despite the pandemic, numerous lockdowns, and the show's consequent metamorphosis, we have stuck by it. We’ve worked hard to make it for you, the audience, and ourselves.

Amalia Ab Aziz
scenic designer
Still breathing, with lungs that rather be elsewhere.
She is one of those former architecture people who no longer want to do architecture, instead exploring graphic, installation and set design. Having met Biji-biji Initiatives, that dreamy illusion of upcycling is habituated; collecting things here and there to give them another purpose in the effort of tolerating the world better.
She also enjoys teaching and discussing deep ugly sad stuffs with her imprecise use of language. Terribly scared of people, but she adores them too. In love with stories a place can tell.
And thank you for joining/reading/watching. For seeing what she cannot see. For being a part of her she would carry till her lungs let go.
