IKA
MARDIANTI's ART
Ika
Mardianti has the ability
as well as the talent
to translate what she
experiences in her life
in her heart and soul
on to canvas. It was
her world in Malaysia
among the rice paddies,
spent mostly in her
parents small villa,
and her need to express
to the world that first
prompted Ika Mardianti
to start canvas painting
her way out of an emotional
dilema that threatened
to destroy her as a
young woman in her late
20's
Ika
through her paintings
tells the world how she
felt outcased from her
Royal family due to her
love affairs and how she
sought to escape her problems
by painting. The canvans
painting scetches helped
her get her head around
how she was feeling about
herself and her place
in her royal family. Never
the less it was painting
that enabled her to find
a pathway to feeling connected
and to make a contribution
to life on this modern
world
