Indonesia art, activism and rock 'n' roll
Description
Tattooed, pierced and screaming punk lyrics, the men and women of Taring Padi have survived kidnappings, beatings, torture, fundamentalist violence and poverty to stand against a corrupt state and the draconian powers of the Indonesian military. Squatting in an old university art school, in Yogyakarta, Central Java, they use art as medium for liberation and education in their commitment to empower the working classes of Indonesia with democracy and human rights.
