About the Artwork

“Konco Wingking,” meaning ‘a companion from behind,’ refers to the traditional role of Javanese women as supporters of men.
While women’s roles have evolved over time, many continue to quietly shape family life. This portrait explores tradition, identity, and quiet strength through the visual contrast between the woman’s hijab and her husband’s coat.
