Photos from Imitation Journey Opening Night

After sharing some of the news coverage of my exhibition, I also wanted to share some photographs from the opening night event at Tujuh Bintang Art Space.

The band Big Boss 11, with my friend Barbara singing lead, started the night off with some classic covers and original songs.

Welcoming and opening speeches.  Me:

Annie Tucker from UCLA, writer for the show:

Rusnoto, the curator for the show:

Entang Wiharso, artist who opened the show:

After I gave Entang a thank you gift, the exhibit was officially open and people got to see the work.

My friend and very special guest Roy Jeconiah provided musical entertainment during the rest of the exhibit. 

Me up on stage, singing along to Hey Jacky:

All in all it was a great evening.... Time to start planning the next show!
