現藏家得自上述

'In Java, the mask is a very symbolic part of traditional culture, and the tradition of shadow theatre has been an important influence for me. By changing the heads of the figures I convey my interpretation; this is the picture I end up with.' - Eko Nugroho

「在爪哇,面具在傳統文化中有重要的象徵意義,而木偶劇的傳統對我有極深的影響。改變作品中人物的頭部造型是我對傳統的詮釋,我的創作。」──艾克 · 努格羅霍
