Arin Dwihartanto Sunaryo (b. 1978, Bandung, Indonesia) is an artist based in Bandung, Indonesia who received his Bachelor’s Degree in Painting from Bandung Institute of Technology (2001) and a Master’s in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins (2005). Sunaryo is interested in the utilization of resin as a medium that captures minerals, pigments, and other particles in various states of flux within a sense of stasis. Working initially with more industrial pigments, he has more recently worked with volcanic ash, perishable food ingredients, as well as crude palm oil and converted them into his own distinctive pigments.
