It was that time of year again for Dia.lo.gue Artspace’s smART Market. This time around there was something for art lovers of all ages, at this eclectic market featuring independent designers and handmade goodies.

Inside the gallery there was an enticing exhibit featuring mixed media works and art installations. Natasha Tontey’s Rhyme Stew looked like a creepy melting-pot of childhood playthings, while Angela Judiyanto’s installation, A Little Encounter, featured a collection of glass jars with quiet narratives painted tableaux-style on their interiors.

Sanchia Hamidijaja could be found at a stand which featured the kind of creative toy any child would be lucky to receive–>ultracool rocking horses. This special collection of imaginative toys from Jilsi (designed by Sanchia H. & Ardi Gunawan) are just the thing to keep active toddlers happy.

The talented pair behind Ghost Juelerie, Yasmina Yesy and Agra Satria, was on hand with some of their latest jewelry creations. Their jewelry, much like their large-scale artworks, is a captivating, mysterious, and bold mix of unexpected materials and shapes. Who can resist Ghost necklaces which effortlessly possess such sinuous appeal?

For a welcome dose of quirky sweetness, Inez Tiara’s table showcased a variety of original collage artworks along with charming totes and playful jewelry, to satiate even the most the jaded soul.

Overall Dia.lo.gue’s latest smART Market was {as usual} a full-on fun and entertaining way to spend a Saturday. I for one am hoping that it becomes a monthly rather than semi-annual event.
