Hardijanto Budiman Indonesian, b. 1968
The two grandmothers shown in this series are street sweepers who Budi found. This has become his greatest challenge in making this series as he needs to be able to tell the grandmothers of the concept or story that he seeks to convey. Budi asserts “if their profession was a model, it would probably be much easier” as they would know what to do in an instant. He would direct both grandmothers in every step of the way. And the photographs turned out to be remarkable.
