I have been keeping my ideas for new jams to myself for several years. There are the thoughts, time, and encounters that I want to convey. "How can I give shape to the mass of things I want to cherish?", "What kind of jam should I make?" Time just flew by as I thought about such vague thoughts.
The thoughts that I want to convey is not an imposition. Information is gathered in our hands through digital devices. In our daily lives, we are swamped by it. During that time, we form relationships that are connected realistically. It becomes personal information. This is what I wanted to express.
What is jam?
For me, it is a jar with potential. I change the shape of the carefully-nurtured fruits, add some touches to them, pour endless ideas into a single jar, and express them. It is like a kind of media or a work of art. It is exactly an act of compiling.
When you scrutinize the word "jam", you will find a variety of meaning. One of my acquaintances told me that “jam" is the Indonesian word for "time”. I would like to leave my thoughts of the past and future in a small jar that even time is kept in. Open the lid of the jam just like opening a book, and enjoy the real time that spreads in your hands at that moment with a spoonful of jam and the compiled document.

I compile cherished things in a jar of jam. It is a comfortable "time".
