Rider of Reverie
Susiyo (Indonesia) solo exhibition
In these new works, familiar everyday objects are inhabited with personality and energetic spirit. The real and the surreal move along a Möbius strip, with no distinction of where one begins and the other ends. Susiyo’s vivid imagination is brought to life through his highly skilled technical ability, utilizing composition and color to pull us into his sur/real worlds. Each painting offers a glimpse into a larger narrative, inviting us as viewers to imagine both the moments that came before and those still to come with unlimited possibilities. Ultimately, Susiyo reminds us that these imagined realms are not separate from our own and can help us expand how we see and shape our own world.
Susiyo was born on February 12, 1993, in Semarang Regency, Indonesia. Susiyo’s artistic journey began with his early experiences in the animation industry, where he was involved in the production process of 2D animated films. This experience opened his eyes to the world of visual arts and became a gateway to further exploring his creative potential.
Not stopping there, he continued his education at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts Yogyakarta, majoring in Fine Arts with a focus on Visual Communication Design. His university years became a crucial period in shaping his artistic identity. He not only learned artistic techniques formally but also broadened his horizons by actively participating in various art communities.
His involvement in these communities provided Susiyo with opportunities to exchange ideas and hone his creativity, which eventually led him to the art exhibition stage. His participation in numerous group exhibitions marked a significant starting point in his professional journey as an artist, introducing his works to a wider audience and solidifying his presence in the art world.
Rider of Reverie at Anno Domini is Susiyo’s debut solo exhibition.

A love letter to all the cars that could have hit me, but didn’t.
Kazland (UK) solo exhibition
VIEW AVAILABLE WORKS ONLINE
A brand new collection of works that I began making during my recovery after being hit by a car last year. The accident itself wasn’t too bad but while I was healing it gave me the chance to work (very carefully) on lots of smaller pieces from my home, everything became more careful, and more meticulous. Using pencils and pastels more than paint became very important while I couldn’t move so much. Since then I’ve kept with the same way of working in a more considered fashion, and stepping back from what I’m doing to feel out the next moves.
The collection focuses on the relationship between mortality and magic – and how we shouldn’t try to control the world around us.
“Waiting for the swamp to float back to earth — feeding on whatever lands first.
a cabin built from the leftovers, the collection above the fire is nearly complete.
Decorated with only the rarest flowers and jewels from the riverbed we wait our turn.
Through the gate – choose your own adventure – third times a charm.
Burnt into the stone, I can see what you were trying to do.
She’s made of shadows – you’ll never catch her – go live in the tree (starve on acorns)
Trapped in the barn we made from spent matches. The door doesn’t open – It doesn’t have to.”
About the Artist:
Kazland, born Callum J. Buckland, 1990, is a self taught, mixed media artist living and working in the south of England. A process based artist, rarely working with a plan, he starts each piece letting the work guide itself until an idea starts to form, and then pursuing it to the end (or a better idea takes over).
He is known for his distinctive mixed-media works that blend abstraction, symbolism and narrative. Kazland’s draws his influences from folk art, outsider art and surrealism. His art is characterised by unconventional shadows, shifting perspectives and bold colour contrasts. He lets each new piece evolve organically, with colours and forms transferring between canvases, reflecting a dynamic exploration of visual language.
