Mirage-Theophany
Mirage-TheophanyĀ is an artist book by Indonesian contemporary artists, Riar Rizaldi and Arda Awigarda.
Mirage-TheophanyĀ expands on the origins and ideas of Riar Rizaldiās Mirage film series by introducing a fictional-historical narrative, centred around the work of 16th-century Sumatran Sufi writer Hamzah Fansuri.
Featuring illustrations by Arda Awigarda, the comic book depicts Fansuriās discovery of āGod within a particleā with a stylistic amalgamation of wafak aesthetics (Islamic amulets), Sufi manuscripts from the Indonesian archipelago, and Kirby-esque comic landscapes. Printed using a malfunctioning offset printing press, the paper quality mirrors that of Indonesian underground comics, and each has a slightly different colour.
