| Mata Penyihir is an independent art label based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Through illustration and design, the project dives into a massive, intricate lore and its characters, charting an untold multiversal story that stretches far into the future. Moving away from traditional exposition, the work captures the silent, gritty friction found within the cracks of a shifting multiverse. These worlds extend beyond stories through art prints, fashion pieces, and objects, allowing the narratives to move from these unseen realities into an immersive experience within everyday life. |

Bond by the Flame
While we stood before that flame, I realized then- when I saw those eyes, some fires don't consume you, they just hold you together. Lesson from this expedition: All things are bound to their flame, I guess...
Limbo
I never thought I'd experience this bridge dimension of universes. Some people call it 'a place between two worlds.' But… none of that matters now; I have more important things to worry about.
Orb
I wonder what makes it so special compared to the countless other stars in this vast universe. Maybe it is just different from the stars I used to see back in my own world.
First Parade
The first parade of a reality being written into existence. The first Arc of the Mata Penyihir.
Sun Keeper: Bandana Relic
Depicted upon an ancient relief: Scattered across the universe are relics that maintain the balance of existence, enduring through timeless epochs. In the empty voids, certain creatures roam, assigned to a purpose yet to come.
Edge of Universe
Beyond the endless Limbo, a way out emerged through the inter-universe gateway. Slipping through the cracks of reality and leaving the pursuit behind, the fugitive arrived at the very edge of the universe.
Kindle
We spent weeks chasing myths across unfamiliar worlds. Strange how the most improbable thing I witnessed was finding someone who made the universe feel a little less vast.
Stealing The Sun
In a vast stretch of endless possibilities, there is never just one world. Countless realities exist side by side, unseen. In one of them, something began to feel wrong. A quiet absence spread across what once felt stable. The light slowly faded from its skies, while something unseen drew closer through the dark. It was only much later that they realized the impossible had happened.
