About this event
M+'s exhibition page states Heri Dono: Fermentation of the Mind runs from 30 May to 1 November 2026. The kinetic installation (1992 to 1993) resembles a classroom, with rows of old wooden desks topped with white fibreglass heads that nod in unison and emit distorted chanting when activated by a pedal. The work reflects on Indonesia's sociopolitical landscape in the early 1990s and draws on the Javanese wayang kulit shadow puppetry tradition.
