Fighting Cocks Group Yogyakarta (Kelompok Jago Tarung) established on June 27, 2010 in Yogyakarta. The member consists of four artists alumni of Indonesia Art Institute (ISI) Yogyakarta ; Multazam 'Zam' Kamil, Moch Basori, Nurul 'Acil' Hayat and Priyaris Munandar. Although newly formed, but the member of Fighting Cocks Group had long involved in the field of contemporary art. They are known as multidisciplinary artists with their uniqueness. Besides painting as primary ability, they also used to create three-dimensional works with various media such as newsprint, wood, textiles, metal, glass, resin, stone, bone, brass, etc.

'Celebrating the Body' uses body as the framework foundation of visual narration which strung together by Fighting Cocks Group artists. Why the body? Body, mentioned by philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty as être-au-monde, is a mode of human's being in this universe. It is an important aspect for human, both biologically, because body supports human life, as well as philosophically, as a medium to touch with the world and to realize itself. Through their body, human express their existence, because with his/her body, he/she is known as subject. With his/her body, human surpass history exam, which neatly stored in his/her sensory organs of the body.

Then each artists change this body discourse according to their own point of view. Multazam ‘Zam’ Kamil interpret body as the expression medium of human soul. He appoints body’s silhouette visually with dynamic movements that combine with human daily poetic moment. Whereas, Nurul ‘Acil’ Hayat picks group of masculine bodies with an expressionless face, bare naked, and colourful bald head. That group of bodies is always in the pose of chasing, jumping, picking “something” as the visual narration of human desire to compete at all times. Human figures in group are also picked by Priyaris Munandar but with meditative monumental nuance. Meanwhile, Moch Basori interprets body not as its bodily. According to Basori, body is the essence, while the meaning which follows it may be present in any form. 'Celebrating the Body' explores the works of two and three dimensions.

In this multi media project, Beatriz Mousinho - who is presents as a part of Ubud Writers and Reader Festival- explores cultural and personal diversity. Poetry is used to go beyond the formless emotion and given another shape by new individuals, with enriched blended emotions. Based in Lisbon, Portugal, Beatriz has also been exploring other forms of expression, having studied fine art and contemporary jewellery.
