Abstract
"Seventeen Hundred" is a compelling digital painting that employs abstract art techniques to depict the growing civil unrest in Indonesia during late 2025. The artwork captures the chaos and discontent stemming from economic frustrations and protests against the proposed hike in housing subsidies for parliament members. Its abstract forms and dynamic composition symbolize the collective anger and demands, including calls to reverse subsidy schemes and pass the Confiscation of Assets Act. The painting vividly portrays the struggle for justice amid political tension.
