Riar RIZALDI (b.1990, Bandung), works as an artist and filmmaker whose “Fossilis” is an oneiric cinema, a phantasmal science-fiction prognosis, an essay film and a tale of the verdant inferno of technological legacy, resonating the complexity of electronic waste in the 21st century of Asia where most of the discarded electronics in the planet is dumped and buried. With live-action sets built from waste materials, scenes from flea market of cannibalization parts, 3D assets and environment from abandoned projects, and AI images generated from unused images from a personal dataset, Fossilis is not just a narrative and representation on ewaste but also engages in the process of film production that involves both digital and physical waste objects as means of artistic practice.
