Her work has grappled with contemporary politics, violence, critique of capital, the female body and her own identity, which although Muslim, still mediates between Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, and animist beliefs. She often uses her public presence in order to attract attention to violence in general, and violence against women or female discrimination in Indonesia’s Islamic society, in particular. Since September 11, she combined her critical attitude toward Islam with a fight against its general stigmatization. Since 2010 she has been working with Tibetan monks in Tibet Plateau, dealing with environmental issues. In addition to working with various communities of artists, activists, and academics in various places in Indonesia and in the world, she has been creating a long term community based art project called “Flag Project” since 2006. She started a community work with an Islamic boarding school, “Pesantren Amumarta” in Yogyakarta. She also has been working as a guest lecturer in Passau University, Germany in the last 10 years. Additionally, she used to teach in Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts (2006-2008).
