Dzikra Afifah
Lives and works in Bandung | Born 1998
Dzikra’s practice explores the relationship between personal experience and collective conditions through drawing, installation, and sculpture. She primarily works with clay and other materials that tend in a state between bodily form and deformation. Her approach to the entire creation process opens her works to a broader narrative through both form and materiality. Her practice continues to evolve through material exploration and contextual inquiry. Her work has been presented in various exhibitions including ARTJOG 2025, at Jogja National Museum (JNM), Yogyakarta, Indonesia; and Desire, Design, Discourse, and Disaster, at GAJAH Gallery, Jakarta, Indonesia (2025). In 2022, Dzikra received the Young Artist Award at ARTJOG, and in 2024, she was named an Honorary Winner of the 8th Bandung Contemporary Art Award (BaCAA).
