SEHELAI BENANG SAJA (Just a Piece of Thread) 
Performance 
2017
@Broken Heart Gallery
Atrium 4th fl. Plaza Indonesia Jakarta

Photo by : Adithya Utama & Nia Gautama

The artwork is about interpreting the essence of love :

LOVE is never ending repetition of Happiness and Sorrow that separated by just a piece of thread.

Ceramicist Nia Gautama opened the exhibition with her art performance. Dressed in red, the artist sat on a white desk scattered with dozens of red roses and an earthen heart. She slowly tore out petals from the roses and broke the heart into pieces. Inside it was a piece of paper with words "happiness" and "sorrow."

Besides the main attraction which is the art installation, during the opening that took place on Thursday (02/09/17), there was also a performance art by Nia Gautama. She used roses and a clay figure of a heart as objects, and it was combined with a theatrical performance.
