This idea came to life in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Memory Sculpture &#038; VR Workshop with Isobel Knowles<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an educational program at Jakarta Film Week 2026 that invited participants to explore the relationship between memory, creativity, and visual representation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Held on the first day of the festival, Wednesday, October 21, the workshop introduced a creative approach through image-making and composition. Participants explored how simple materials could serve as tools for developing ideas and translating personal interpretations into visual works.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the workshop, participants worked with everyday materials such as paper, scissors, and markers to develop their ideas. Using provided images as a starting point, they created compositions based on their individual interpretations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The process went beyond a simple arts-and-crafts activity. Selecting images, arranging their positions, and establishing relationships between visual elements were all artistic decisions that could produce different meanings. The same materials could inspire a variety of works, as each participant brought their own perspectives and personal experiences to the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This approach demonstrated that creativity does not always begin with complex technical skills. Observing, selecting, and connecting visual elements can also be ways of building a story. As separate image fragments come together, they create opportunities to develop new narratives from elements that initially appear unrelated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Memory can be understood in a similar way. Past experiences do not always emerge as complete records, but rather as fragments, impressions, and associations that continue to evolve. Art provides space for these fragments to be rearranged and reinterpreted through a more personal perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Isobel Knowles&#8217;s involvement in the program also opened up discussions about the relationship between art, animation, and technology. Exploring different mediums demonstrates how an idea can evolve through experimentation rather than being confined to a single form of representation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virtual reality (VR) offers another compelling perspective on how audiences experience visual works. Unlike watching a film on a conventional screen, VR allows viewers to experience a visual environment as a space they can explore. This creates opportunities to establish a closer relationship between audiences and visual worlds through spatial perception and their position within those environments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While paper and scissors offer a hands-on creative experience through tangible materials that can be physically arranged, immersive technology presents alternative ways to explore the relationships between images, space, and experience. Together, these approaches demonstrate how different mediums can offer distinct possibilities for developing creative ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of Jakarta Film Week 2026&#8217;s educational program, the workshop highlighted how cinematic exploration can intersect with various artistic disciplines. Visual creation, idea development, and experimentation with different mediums all contribute to a broader creative ecosystem that extends beyond film production and screenings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Memory Sculpture &#038; VR Workshop with Isobel Knowles<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> invited participants to see memory not merely as something to be preserved, but as an experience that can be reconstructed and reinterpreted. Behind every image and composition lies the possibility of discovering a new story about how people remember, imagine, and make meaning of their own experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Written by Auva Rafi<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through visual art and immersive technology, human experiences can be translated into forms that extend beyond words.
