A native of Indonesia, Iqi Qoror started his career as a professional Visual Artist with a master’s degree in Fine Art. His works revolve around the questions of trust, interspersed with fragments of modernity set against his own social experience. Each artwork represents a point of self-reflection: “We live in a catastrophic world and I express my response, my scream, through my works, and I’m constructing a question of our madness.”
One of Qoror’s greatest strengths is his distinctive multi-media surrealism. Qoror’s combination of different media merges not only different art practices such as painting and embroidery, but past and present as well. The combination of modern expressionistic style with pops of color renders his artwork unforgettably visceral. This blend of portraiture, pop-textiles, and surrealistic imagery invokes curiosity, confusion, and a playful connection with our contemporary world.
Qoror constantly challenges himself to be more experimental and versatile in his art practice, from installation to mixed-media painting. Qoror has established himself as one of the fastest-rising stars of the Indonesian art scene. Starting with the gradual dominance of the Southeast Asian art market, Qoror now has a growing international collector base through his exhibitions in international hot spots such as Singapore, Hong Kong, and now Los Angeles.
Iqi Qoror is an Indonesian artist whose multimedia practice explores themes of identity and human connection through a distinctive fusion of painting and embroidery. His works reflect an ongoing dialogue between trust and modernity, drawing inspiration from his personal and social experiences.
A graduate of the Indonesian Institute of the Arts, where he earned his Master’s Degree in Fine Art, Qoror has developed a deeply reflective practice that bridges traditional techniques with contemporary concepts. His commitment to experimentation extends across installations and mixed-media paintings, revealing a continual evolution in both form and meaning.
Recognized as one of Indonesia’s most promising emerging artists, Qoror has exhibited internationally in cultural centers including Singapore, Hong Kong, and Los Angeles. His thought-provoking works are gaining the attention of collectors worldwide.
