Tiarma Sirait is a Bandung-based fashion artist who is presenting visually provocative and thought provoking installations, performances, textiles and fashions questioning all the conventional wisdoms both of the East and West. Tiarma was educated in the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) in Textile Design, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) in Fashion Design and a STINT (The Swedish Foundation for International Cooperation in Research & Higher Education) scholarship Program, Master in Fashion & Textile Design at University of Borås, Sweden. Her recent works involve pink plastics and synthetic fur to highlight the fickleness, volatility and falsehood that permeate our dearly held beliefs, influences and lifestyle in themes such as love and lust, foreign influences on Indonesian culture and mass consumerism. She uses pink to give an eccentric sensation for her creation since 1998 as her signature style. She has exhibited extensively throughout Indonesia and in countries around the world such as: Malaysia, Thailand, Australia, France, Germany, Canada, Cuba, Poland, Japan, UK, Sweden, Italy, China and many others.
