Mutiara Riswari was born 1998 in Semarang, Indonesia.
She studied at School of art Yogyakarta (2013-2016) and continued her study in Indonesian Institute of Art Yogyakarta on 2016 and finished her study on 2019.
She currently lives and works in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
In her creative process, she inspired with ‘Jagat Alit’ terms (Javanese philosophy) as a base of her artworks. ‘Jagat Alit’ (microcosm) explains about connection, that humans are a form of a small universe that is
interconnected with the Big Universe (macrocosm). Through her transition journey, from time to time and from one place to another, she concludes that the fundamental thing is awareness. For her, an artwork is also part of the journey for everyone who sees and creates it.
