Not only writing history, the victors of a tragedy or violent event can also write belief structures (mythology), these are certainly not “lie” structures or mere myths that if the truth about them were revealed, would easily disappear.

In this work I have collected the structures that the victorious colonizers have created, and which remain, believed to this day, with the pungent smell of the blood of the defeated.

Once upon a time we still lived side by side with merchants of different races without any burden or fear, or being in the same building with a communist, a Muslim, a conservative without any disagreement.

A dominant group of people create mythical structures on skin color, ideology, religion and create “heroes” and losers, based on their ego power.

In this work there are several structures created from complex historical and cultural factors but simplified into specific myths; Geger Pecinan (myth of skin color), Multatuli (myth of white heroes), Mangir story (myth of kings).

Illustrations with vulgar and dirty visuals, to revile the historical imagination full of violence and disgusting desires.
