Astragraphia Supports Solo Photography Exhibition Le Mystère des Peintures Murales Hasiholan Siahaan XIV

Astragraphia Document Solution - Astragraphia supports and will be present at the opening of senior photojournalist Hasiholan Siahaan XIV's solo photo exhibition "Le Mystére de Mural" on May 2, 2023. The photographs on display at the Institut Français Indonesia (IFI) Wijaya South Jakarta are images of murals and graffiti from various parts of cities in Indonesia and around the world that hold memories and stories.

King Iriawan Sutanto, Director of PT Astra Graphia Tbk, Satryo Dewandono, Chief of Business Strategy & Development and Corporate Communications of PT Astra Graphia Tbk, Charlotte Esnou, Cultural Attache of the French Embassy, and Syarah H. Andriani, Head of IFI Wijaya Branch, all attended the opening ceremony of the Hasiholan Siahaan photo exhibition.

In the public exhibition, 70 photo posters were displayed and printed on the Fujifilm Revoria PressTM PC1120 machine. "Astragraphia's business focus in the fields of printing and digital is very much aligned with and close to the world of the creative industry, which also includes photo journalists," Mr. King said. We always appreciate their work, and on this occasion, we thank Mr. Hasiholan for his mural photo work, which has been documented so that it can be enjoyed by a larger community."

Furthermore, unlike works of art on canvas, murals have a limited lifespan because a mural painting must always be ready in case a new image is overwritten at any time. Mr. Hasiholan's initiative to document mural works is significant and deserves recognition because documentation through photos allows the mural's message, which is voiced by the artist and also has artistic value, to be heard and enjoyed for a longer and more widespread period of time.

Le Mystére de Mural translates as "the mystery of murals," and according to Mr. Hasiholan, murals or graffiti must have their own meaning, so murals or graffiti must be documented in order to have a long life. "Most murals are not seen by many people because they are in a hidden location, such as under a flyover that is rarely used," Hasiholan explained.

Astragraphia, as one of the printing companies, supports creative and artistic activities for photojournalists and creative business people. Astragraphia is honored to be included in this solo photography exhibition.
