David Pedraza was part of the residency program There van Heden in Yogyakarta for three months in 2011. In his work, Pedraza delved deeply into his Catholic upbringing, his family, and the hedonistic lifestyle of his generation. In the melting pot of Yogyakarta, where diverse beliefs coexist, he explored these themes in his art. His major wall installation, Eheieh Asher Eheieh, which he created there for the first time, will now be performed again in The Hague. Catholic symbols are intertwined with other religions, political doctrines, and philosophical and societal questions, while still paying homage to art history.
