Siluman Macan (Weretiger) is a special presentation by Timoteus Anggawan Kusno. The presentation offers a glimpse into an ongoing development of the artist’s latest film project, Siluman Macan.
The presentation unfolds as an expanded process notebook. Field notes, sketches, writing fragments, design studies, technical drawings, and traces of cinematic research, these materials reveal the evolving ecology of ideas, references, and experiments that shape the project, while highlighting a recurring motif within the artist’s practice: the tiger and the weretiger as figures of ambivalence, transformation, otherness, and return. Across the works, these figures emerge as shifting metaphors through which questions of power, memory, and historical imagination are explored.
Siluman Macan traces speculative futures shaped by unresolved historical residues and collective anxieties toward the unknown.
