"I Can't See My House" is a compelling image that depicts rice farming activity and the surrounding landscape in rural Indonesia. It is a poignant representation of the emotional and psychological impact of the isolation and loneliness, that the artist experienced in his rural village of Batang Buo, Indonesia.
The image demonstrates the contrast between the natural beauty of the setting and the mental and emotional desolation during the lockdown. The artist's inability to see his home, which represented his connection to community and surroundings, demonstrates how disoriented and lost he felt at the time. The image captures a moment of total physical and psychological devastation. It demonstrates how many people felt during the lockdown, when they felt disoriented and unsure of their location.
The use of hyperreality in the image, which connects the image to graphic design, highlights the role of technology in our lives. The picture shows how much more dependent we have become on technology, to the point where it can change how we see the outside world. The natural beauty of the landscape and the artificiality of the graphic design show that there needs to be a balance between nature and technology.
