Yang Kelak Akan Retak
Synopsis
Yang Kelak Akan Retak is anchored in the idea of following the trails of the historical borders as an attempt to retrace and archive the space through some underrated small-scale monument or monument-look-like which span around 500 kilometers from Central Java to East Java, Indonesia, such as: Monument Renville (Banjarnegara, Central Java), Tugu Renville (Kebumen, Central Java) and Status Quo Line (Malang, East Java). Yang Kelak Akan Retak involves local historians, local activists, and also the sculptor from each site of the monument as an attempt to emphasize the historical narratives that were built within the local people.
