Hello Mister. I love you.
Riding your bike around Yogyakarta as a foreigner heaps of the kids yell to
you "Hello Mister!!" My favourite was when they know a bit more English and
add "I love you".
Even with the knowledge that the Indonesian language has a non- gender
specific term for he/she you still can't help feeling that you're beginning
to look more like a man.
Snippets and stupid things I did, said or overheard in Indonesia on a 3
month residency in 2008. A series of pencil and pen drawings with rubber
stamped text then printed on the Rizzeria stencil press and handbound into zines
