Uji 'Hahan' Handoko Eko Saputro, Verifi cation Devouring Itself 2025, Acrylic on Canvas, 250 x 200 cm
Days That Slip Away Untouched is a solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Uji “Hahan” Handoko Eko Saputro. Following its debut in Jakarta, the exhibition continues Hahan’s investigation into the shifting relationship between physical reality and its digital mediation.
Working across painting, sculpture, and sound, Hahan examines how perception and meaning are conditioned within digitally mediated environments. His work probes the terms by which images and experiences are encountered, tracing how distinctions between the real, the constructed, and the circulated are produced, and how authenticity is negotiated in their wake.
In contrast to the immediacy of digital systems, Hahan’s practice emphasises slowness and material engagement. Developed in close dialogue with the Ace House collective and his studio artisans, the works emerge through what he describes as an “aesthetic kinship”, a process rooted in shared labour and collective exchange. Across the exhibition, Hahan appropriates imagery from works by Raden Saleh, Tomás Sánchez, and Walter Spies, using these references to refl ect on how knowledge, power, and ways of seeing have shaped historical narratives. In doing so, the works draw attention to the instability of images in an era governed by algorithmic visibility, where depth and context risk being fl attened.
