Hariyono, or Hari as he is called by many, is a 22-yr-old
Java
nese artist currently living in
Ubud, Bali
. Hari makes
a humble living
working at a shoe shop the size of a typical American front porch, like most of the storefronts in
Ubud
. There he can be seen everyday with his partners sitting outside in his sarong and bare feet making and repairing shoes. Hari sleeps on the roof of the shoe shop along with his 5 co-workers. If it rains, they get wet.
They sit out at the curb all night amongst the countless
wild dogs
, playing guitars,
digeridoo
s,
tablas
and
gambelan
; singing and dancing until they feel like going to sleep. Often they share a jug of
arak
and coke but Hari sings loudly and passionately regardless of the drink. Everyone knows Hari and calls to him as they speed by on their motorbikes.
Hari is considered
low-caste
when he is on Bali, but the
Gusti
s hang out with him anyway, and offer him
free tattoos
. He rolls
marijuana
up with
clove tobacco
and eats
steaming psilocybin mushroom omlettes
. Sometimes when work is slow, he gets
crafty
with the supplies laying around and starts making wallets, belts and wall hangings to give to his nearby friends and mail to his far away ones.
When Hari is not at work he makes sculptures from
rocks and other found objects
; he can sell one on the beach at
Kuta
for enough
rupiah
to rent his own motorbike and drive down the coast. All the
Indonesia
ns on
Bali
ride motorbikes and none of them wears a helmet. Hari's
extensive mass of tightly curled hair
flails uncontrollably behind him as he flies by the tour busses. He leads a
truly
amazing life, if you ask
me
.
